Dédé Wilson is a lifelong dog lover whose passion for purebred dogs runs deep; her family has three generations of Bull Terrier lovers, honored with her Legacy kennel name. Today, Dédé is an active preservation breeder, exhibitor, and advocate for ethical breeding practices. She is a member of the Bull Terrier Club of America and serves as Corresponding Secretary and New Member Chair for the Miniature Bull Terrier Club of America. Both she and her son have had Best of Variety/Breed winners at The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, yet her commitment extends beyond the show ring; she champions education on responsible ownership and the importance of Breed Standards, and has titled dogs in Performance sports, including Scent Work, Rally, and Fast CAT, proving that form and function go hand in hand. Her current MBT, Nora, also has her CGCA and is the first Miniature Bull Terrier to attain Platinum Owner-Handled status. Whether mentoring new enthusiasts or supporting club initiatives, Dédé’s mission remains the same: to protect and celebrate dogs and human companionship.
