I have been  in love with dogs since I was a little girl, and the fact that my mother was involved in showing only heightened my interest. My mother showed sporting dogs, but said I could pick my breed.  I chose Pugs.  I showed in Jr. Showmanship and went to Westminster one year with a pug.

When I graduated from College, I left the show world.  After I got married, Phyllis Williams gave us a Pug. I showed him a few times in conformation but then I got involved in the Obedience World.
