Dallas Strip Clubs: Rejected Gingrich gift goes to pit bulls
DALLAS, Nov. 26 (UPI) — The owner of a Dallas strip club whose $5,000 contribution to former House Speaker Newt Gingrich was rejected is giving the money to a shelter for pit bulls.
The shelter, at Animal Gardens 40 miles outside Dallas, is to be named Newt’s Nook, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Thursday. Annett Lambert, who runs the animal sanctuary, said she was happy to get the donation from strip club owner Dawn Rizos.
“I can’t tell you how much this new building means to us,” Lambert said. “Dawn didn’t deserve to be treated like that, but this will do so much for these loving dogs until we find them good homes.”
American Solutions, Gingrich’s think tank, selected Rizos’ company, DCG, for an entrepreneurship award but the award was withdrawn when American Solutions learned DCG’s main business is running The Lodge, a strip club.
