About the Owner:
Who would have thought that an innocent visit from my older sister with her little pug Chewie would evolve into such a passionate hobby. In 1996 I purchased my first pug "Snubby" and then in 1998 I purchased my first show pug Phoebe aka AM/CAN/MEX CH Kenwood's Little Phoebe, my foundation bitch. I have since bred and/or owned 46 champions, bred 3 All Breed Best in Show Winners, 7 Best in Specialty Show Winners, 10 Group Winners, multiple Best In Puppy Show & Best Bred by Exhibitor In Show winners . Additionally, Multi BIS/BISS CH Winsome's Gold Standard is the Most Winning Pug In The History Of The Breed in Europe and the 2012 Eukanuba World Challenge invitee from Belgium. From 2000 thru 2011, my pugs have been in the NCPC Top 10 consistently, seven of those years holding the #1 Pug ranking and Breeder Of The Year the past consecutive three years. During the same time period, Winsome pugs has been in the Pug Dog Club Of America Top 20 eight of the eleven years, with two years having multiple pugs in the Top 20. Currently Multi BISS Gold Grand Champion Winsome-Nirvana-Blaque Triple Play aka Slugger is #1 Pug, breed points in the US. In addition to conformation, Winsome pugs has multiple obedience/rally titles. Winsome's Nothin' But Trouble, CDX, RN aka Maggie was PDCA & NCPC Obedience Dog of the Year in 2002, NCPC Obedience Dog of the Year in 2005 and NCPC Rally Dog of the Year in 2006. In 2002 Maggie won the PDCA Fran Stewart Memorial Trophy for being the highest scoring pug.
