Born Demetrius Wheeler, Meech Dog is a Louisville native raised in The West End by a funny single mother and two grandparents. He graduated from Western High School and graduated from Morehead State University, the first person in his family to attend college. On stage, Meech Dog can be raunchy, wild and a little brash, but he’s careful not to take his audience to a negative place. “I’m here to uplift people,” he said. “People leave my show bathed positivity and light.” Meech has been around the world and lived in various cities around the country.
