About Vinnie's owners:

We got our first pug, Louie, in 1996. He opened our eyes to the Wonders of the Pug.  Delilah Beaujolais came into our home as a companion for Louie in 2000 and she has given us another dimension of pug love into our lives. We joined the NCPC to show Louie and Delilah and connect with the pug world. Over the years we have made lovely lifetime friends in the Club.  In the past ten years, four litters of puppies have blessed us -- with each generation bringing more joy into our expanding extended pug family.  Louie passed at 15-years-old, Delilah is now approaching 14, Quintie 10 years. Our old girls are so much fun to live with their mellow quirkiness.  Their unending affection has made our empty nest full.  We are looking forward to Vinnie showing in 2014 with Tracy Olson.
