Saline Game Preserve (Dog Ranch)
Back in our OkieLegacy Archives we found the following information concerning the Saline Game Preserve (Dog Ranch). Grace Wessel wrote in inquiring to information concerning Orville (last name unknown) who worked for the Saline Game Preserve (known as "Dog Ranch" to locals) over at the Great Salt Plains, near Cherokee, Oklahoma.
Does anyone have any other information or stories concerning this "Dog Ranch" of the 1930's and 1940's? Was it really a haven or hide-away used by rich oil barrens?
We would love to hear and share your Dog ranch stories!

I would like to know more about the names of the oil men from Tulsa and OKC. Do you know any more than written above? ~Paula Denson 2011-11-14 21:31:58
Several years ago when the Refuge dedicated the Bonham fishing pond I met member of that family who recalled that her mother cooked at the Dog Ranch, her brother carried fishing orhunting gear for the guests--oil men from Tulsa and OKC and sheplayed in the guest cabins that were not in use. She also recalled helping hermother set the tables in the lodge with crystal, china, silverware, and linens. Hopefully others knowmore as itsounds like an interesting part of NW OK's past. ~Ken Brown 2011-01-18 09:23:31
