People often ask me how Vince, the “chief security officer” for my company, got his name. So today I thought I’d tell you all about it!

I was born and raised in Wisconsin, and both my husband and I are life long Green Bay Packers fans. So when we decided to adopt a Weimaraner called Harley, we knew we wanted to rename him with something football or Packers related.

I liked the name Lombardi, after the head coach of the Packers during the 1960’s. For those that don’t know, Vince Lombardi led the Packers to five NFL Championships in seven years, in addition to winning the first two Super Bowls. But I was worried the name might be too long (too many syllables), and not one that a dog would easily pick up (no strong consonants).

My son Dave suggested Vince, and as soon as we saw him, we knew it was the perfect fit. And Vince it was!
