DREAM OF HOPES RANCH
IS JUST THAT.

It began as a dream when I was just a little girl to establish a camp and living facility for children and adults with special needs like my learning disabled and aphasiac twin sister, Linda, and now my own son, Joey, who was born with Down Syndrome. 

Dream of Hopes Ranch became a reality when I had a visionary dream about an Eagle hugging some land, which looked just like the Austin Area Hill Country. I talked to my Native American friends about my dream and they stated that the Eagle was protecting the land for me. I asked, "Why for me?" They, in return, said I must ponder that for myself.

By the time I left my friends, I knew why the Eagle was securing that land and the name of the ranch...

DOHR has JUST acquired a second location.....five acres of flat land—along with two goats and two miniature donkeys—in Buda, Texas.
