Ron Davis (filmmaker)

[4][5][6] Pageant received its television broadcast debut on the Sundance Channel after winning a total of ten awards from film festivals.

[10] Snowman was an old Amish plow horse that Dutch immigrant Harry deLeyer rescued off a truck that was bound for the meat and glue factory for only $80.

Less than two years after he rescued Snowman, they rose to become the national show jumping champions and were the Cinderella story and media darlings of late 1950s and 1960s.

[17] In 2019 June, Netflix released Davis’ Life In the Doghouse, a documentary that follows a couple, Danny Robertshaw and Ron Danta,[18] running the Danny & Ron's Rescue from their own home,[19] ever since Hurricane Katrina made catastrophic landfall in the United States’ Gulf Coast in August 2005.

With thirteen years operating the business and 10,000 dogs rescued,[20] the documentary aimed to inspire viewers to do the same.
