Salvage Dawgs - TV Series:
After eight years, 11 seasons and 143 episodes, the reality show with Roanoke roots, Salvage Dawgs, has come to an end.

Mike Whiteside and Robert Kulp said Salvage Dawgs far exceeded their expectations, and the series lasted much longer than anyone expected.

And while it might not have ended exactly as they would have planned, they say it was about time to wrap it up.

“We’ve kind of figured out, now that we’ve stopped filming, that there’s life after that,” Kulp said. “And it’s working out pretty well.”

“You know, it’s okay with me,” Whiteside said, “because Robert’s starting to get gray hair now. So I think that’s a perfect catalyst for change.”

But Black Dog Salvage isn’t going anywhere, and the hosts of Salvage Dawgs will continue to interact with their audience through social media.

“Do we have Salvage Dawgs the movie to look forward to?” we asked “Yeah, it’ll be coming out on YouTube,” Whiteside joked. “Yeah Super 8,” Kulp said.

Black Dog Salvage has reopened after a temporary closure after the pandemic hit, and like other small businesses, the owners are hoping their customers will return. The main location in Roanoke has high ceilings and more than 40,000 square feet, plenty of space for social-distancing.
