I had wanted a Pug for a long time & I got Dilly as a puppy for my 18th Birthday.

My mam went to great lengths to find the top Irish Pug exhibitor at the time & approached Mrs. Roseanne Gleeson to enquire about the possibility of purchasing a bitch puppy. Roseanne has been a constant good source of help & advice over the years & has remained a very good friend to me. Although Dilly was not very successful in the show ring herself she produced 2 litters, 7 pups in total. We retained 3, who all became Irish Champions & the first Irish Bred International Champions. Ali & Mo both became Annual Champions. Ali has also won a Canadian Title, a Celtic Winner Title & a Junior Diploma.

Dilly has retired from the show ring & is living the life of riley in Mitchelstown, Co. Cork with Liam & Georgina Sharpe Molan.
