As a family project we have started breeding our AKC registered Pembroke Welsh Corgi dogs on our property in Escondido, CA. Escondido is located in North San Diego county in Southern California. We are a small breeder and so we may have puppies for sale from time to time.
My wife Lisa has an extensive Animal Health background growing up on a family farm in Eastern South Dakota and then she majored in veterinary technology in college and her background has proved essential in breeding puppies.
I (Patrick), have been working in the computer field since 1983 and I take care of the technical aspects of this endeavor.
Our six Kids all help with the dog chores but they provide two of the most important components, LOVE and ATTENTION. Corgi dogs are very people oriented and our children assure that none of our puppies lack attention!
We have started to show our dogs in a couple of shows and hope to be able to devote more time to that endeavor.

For people who are not aware of Pembroke Welsh Corgi dogs, the following is a
cut of a introduction guide from the Pembroke Welsh Corgi Club of America. The full
document is available at
www.akc.org/pdfs/breeds/ClubFlierPDFs/PembrokeWelshCorgi.pdf
Pembrokes have been used by the Welsh as herding dogs, family
companions, and guardians of the farm. They continue today to be
workers and companions for their owners. It is believed that their
ancestry dates back to at least the tenth century. It is unknown
whether they are descended from the Vallhunds (Swedish cattle dogs
possibly brought to Pembrokeshire by the Vikings) or from the
ancestors of the present-day Schipperkes and Pomeranians that were
brought to Wales by Flemish weavers.
In the 1920's Corgis were recognized as pure-bred dogs in the United
Kingdom. In 1934 the Pembroke and Cardigan Corgis were
recognized by the English Kennel Club as separate breeds. American
Kennel Club recognition of the two distinct breeds also occurred in
that same year.
Pembrokes are sensitive and intelligent dogs. They are easily trained
as long as training is done with gentle handling and without severe
physical correction. They are healthy and long-lived dogs and are
excellent companions for either rural or urban families. |
