Tooshort Corgis

Located in Toowoomba (1.5hrs west of Brisbane in SE QLD). And basically the rest is history. Available puppies will be desexed and placed in appropriate homes.

I obtained my first pedigree show dog [Benson] when he was 8weeks old in 2017, We started showing when he turned 6months (17th March 2018). I have a love for my breed and showing them gives me a socialisation aspect in my personal life.I actively show as much as my work life allows. As of November 2020 I was luckily to start showing Aberlee Reign Of Love "Reign", from Gloria Woodward (Aberlee) she

is currently excelling in the show ring against some stealth competition. Reign has been genetically health tested and I am happy with what she has in both genetics and conformation that will continue on upholding the integrity and standard of the breed, under mentor Gloria Woodward. I am a small breeder and will only breed for myself to continue on the progeny in the show ring. If you would like to add a TOOSHORT corgi to your home please fill out my application on PETspot [ I don’t keep wait lists ] https://thepetspot.com.au/breed/corgi-pembroke-welsh/kennel/tooshort-corgi-pembroke-welsh

💃 Lexi
Tooshort Ready Set Let’s Roll
🥇 Place in Baby Puppy Sweepstakes on Saturday, then went on to Best Baby Puppy Of Breed with a competitive entry of two half siblings (Shine & Jesse) plus her brother Reece.
She certainly can move and has the sweetest face. But a whole lot of sass!!!
This day…. I left Lexi and Reece in the shade whilst I went to get the other kids. Came back and she has somehow managed to steal her ribbon from the top. 😝 cheeky monkey 🙈

🏆 OH WHAT A FEELING 🏆

Proud to announce that Brie / Brienie / BRiiiiiiiiiiie will be formally known as

Ch. Tooshort A Lil French Kiss 💋 (pending DQ)

(Ch. Aberlee French Connection x
Ch. Aberlee Reign Of Love).

Brie is my first home bred bitch from my first litter. Proud is an understatement, I’m still on cloud 9. After thinking we would be on the inevitable 99 points for a bit.

After I was given my heart dog Reign (Brie’s mum) I was given the homework of selecting a dog who would compliment the pedigree.

Which was from a beautiful selection of Aberlee dogs, all with their equal qualities. But it was Connor who took my eye (Brie’s dad)

Tooshort - A Lil French Kiss 💋 (aka Brie/Brienie)

Brie is 1 of 4 in Reigns first litter and my first keeper to run on in the show ring (also the little baby on our logo).
Unfortunately we cannot keep them all and I know she will do well in a family with young children. This is one of the hardest decisions to make when you bottle feed babies and raise them from day 1.
She is exuberant, super friendly, gets along with other dogs and people (we have chickens and she does chase them, so heads up for cat households, as we don’t have cats).
Is a bit full of herself but has an off switch, she is crate trained and will run straight to her crate when it’s dinner time.
I will continue to show her until she gains her title before desexing her.
Until then I am taking expressions of interest for her future forever home (she is not free), and it needs to be the right home for her.

She will be desexed, main register with if you wish to continue her in the neuter class and dabble in dog showing (you would need to be a member of your state body too, happy to help mentor you in showing), her crate, vet bed, UTD on vaccinations and worming. As well as lifetime support, I am also happy to continue to groom her, if the timing / days and distance work.
She is currently 19months old, and her biggest achievements have been;
🎀 placed 4th at the NSW Corgi specialty in 2024. In a big line up of junior b!tches.
🎀 Best In Group for the working dog group.
🎀 Runner Up In Group for the working dog group
🎀 B***h Challenge and Junior in Show at the open Corgi show
She has matured nicely and I’m very proud of what we have achieved in our 16months of showing with her.
She has had a full DNA profile which I’m happy to discuss further to a potential family.
Her siblings areabout.sybil

📧 Email me at [email protected] or send me an inbox.
Please include a little about yourself/family dynamic/home type (rented/owned if rented have you sought landlord approval).
and most importantly what you would offer this beautiful girl with a heart of gold.

💃 Lexi did a thing today. 🎀

There were some lovely babies in the working dog line up at Inverell Kemnel Club. An Aussie shepherd, German shepherd and Lexi.

She also beat her brother Reece who did exceptionally well since having a few weeks off.

Daddy Rollo was Runner Up to Best In Group yesterday (15points).

Brie gained 12more points to her title, only one more point to go until she gains her Australian Championship.

In saying that Brie will become available to a new home. Please inbox or email experessions of interest to [email protected]
(She will be desexed, main papered if you wish to continue on showing in the neuter class. UTD on worming and vaccinations- she comes with lifetime support.

This is Bambi from our most recent Rollo x Reign litter. She is just so beautiful (and she knows it!!). Look at that sweet face. 🥹

Why Choosing a Breeder Who Shows Their Dogs Matters, Even for Pet Owners

When selecting a breeder, you might wonder why it’s recommended to choose one who shows their dogs, even if you have no intention of participating in dog shows yourself. Does this focus on show standards seem excessive or elitist? It’s not, and here’s why.

Dog shows are more than just competitions; they serve as a rigorous evaluation process where dogs are assessed against the breed standard. This standard includes several critical elements:

• Soundness: This refers to a dog’s overall physical and mental health, ensuring all organs and faculties are functioning harmoniously.
• Type: Breed type encompasses not just appearance but also character, bone structure, temperament, and movement, reflecting the essence of the breed.
• Gait: The quality of a dog’s movement is assessed to ensure ease and freedom from structural issues.
• Temperament: This measures a dog’s general attitude towards people and other animals, an essential trait for a well-rounded companion.

So why does this matter to you as a prospective pet owner? If you chose a Poodle, you likely did so because of their renowned qualities: their gentle nature, compatibility with children and other animals, and their ability to make exceptional therapy dogs. Good breeders strive to uphold these positive characteristics through their commitment to breed standards.

While not every puppy from a show-quality litter will be destined for the show ring, all will benefit from the breeder’s dedication to preserving the breed’s positive traits. Puppies that are not suited for the show ring but are well-bred still embody the breed’s essential qualities, making them excellent family pets.

Choosing a breeder who shows their dogs is not about snobbery or elitism; it’s about ensuring that you get a puppy who will grow into a well-rounded, healthy companion that exemplifies the breed you fell in love with. It’s about the breeder’s commitment to preserving the breed’s best traits and ensuring every puppy, regardless of its future in the show ring, starts life with the best possible foundation.

In essence, selecting a breeder who shows their dogs is a way to ensure that your future puppy will be a healthy, well-adjusted member of your family. It’s a reflection of love and respect for the breed, ensuring that all puppies have the opportunity to thrive and bring joy into their new homes.

Yesterday was a quick trip to the vet for their second vaccinations with Dr Alice.

Can’t believe they’re almost 10weeks old!
I suppose when you have content babies (with a devoted mother) you don’t even know they exist.

01/09/2024

Well with Bambi in her new home it’s time to introduce our new babies to run on.

A sincere thankyou goes to my mentor Gloria Woodward of Aberlee for entrusting me with her pedigree in my dogs today, and for helping me get these cracking shots this afternoon despite the heat.

What’s better than a dog show?…..

A dog show with a beach swim finish!! 🏖️ 🌊

Rollo started off unsure and preferred belly rubs on the sand. Then after getting fully wet he was fine to sit in the water.
Brie was a duck to water. She is trying to keep her eyes open, but has been caught resting her eyes.

This new spot (can only compare it to last year) I have to say WOW!! Both times though it has been great but the water and reserved parking was that wow factor!

Thank you for tagging along and keeping me company, Michael for helping with run offs and (Dasha) for your awesome shade.

Think I’ll just come for the beach next year.

Today was this little one’s big debut into her new home.

I met and her mum Charlotte before the mating of Reign & Rollo and we shared stories of our dogs and the special part of seeing photos of their previous corgi Balto.

When the puppies were 6weeks old, Alice and Charlotte came to visit the “Rollin In Love” litter.

It was love at first sight. I am so thankful to have met Alice and confident that their little one now named Bambi (Tooshort Rollin In The Meadow pending DQ), will make a lasting impression.

One of my favourite things is setting up puppy packs, ensuring they go home with a crate, vet bed, grooming products/tools I use as well a must for any crate - a water bucket!!

Plus a few personal touches.

Still a few paperwork things to put together and a roll of raw food for her to go home with.

The countdown is on 🥰🥰

Crate training going well for these babies. Can’t believe they’re a whole 8weeks (and a day) old.

👑 Royal Show
Placed 2/4 - Open Dog Class

🐕 Speciality Show
🥇 1/4 Open Dog Class
🥇 Dog Challenge
🥈 Runner Up to Best Of Breed congrats to Cara & Ngaire Kiernan + handler Kellie

So proud of him after a rough start in the Royal show, I could see the judge was forgiving on the dogs in an environment they are not typically use to.

I took advantage of the lunch break (before the speciality show) by desensitising him in the ring whilst meeting the public. When it came time for us to go into the ring he was focused on the magic chicken and me 🐓🥰 thank you Shelley.

I am so happy that I was joined by Rollo’s son Beetle (owned by Shelley, and bred by Gloria) and half brother Winston (owned by Leigh Hinricks) in the Speciality Dog Challenge line up.
With Beetle being awarded Challenge dog & rubob (Royal show) and reserve dog challenge (Speciality show).
& Jeffrey another Rollo son winning Baby of Breed for both shows. (Idelia Rollin In Love).

I am thankful for the pedigrees behind our dogs with a very special thank you to Gloria Woodward for entrusting me with my special boy Rollo. (Reign and the babies she has produced with Aberlee behind them).

Congratulations to all the corgi exhibitors today, a fabulous entry for the breed (5 cardis & 27 pems).
I even handled beautiful Layla for the B***h Ch line up for Julene (& won 🥰).

My junior girl Brie was entered but I decided to leave her at home as she would have been the centre of attention amongst our boys.

Happy 5weeks kids!! All playing, being vocal and c h e w i n g everything (teething). They had a little outside time today in the afternoon (first time). Reece found a spot wedged next to the pot plant and took a sleep, whilst the girls took it in turns playing and exploring. Summer is a bossy girl whereas Snickers is sweet & playful and can wrap anyone around her little paw, whilst chewing the legs of your pants 😂 I think I may have gotten their names mixed up! Reece’s ears are officially UP! 🆙 😍 . Next weekend is a big day of vaccinations, microchips, DNA collection at @marburgvetclinic but before then, we have morning tea with our show family + our litter assessment. (Which is a day of puppy cuddles and selecting the next member/s for our show team). . Every mating has a purpose, we are thrilled to allow families own a puppy loved from the time we plan a mating (sometimes years beforehand). ❤️ . I will always be supportive and a guidance for any questions you have with your puppy. I’m grateful to see Brie’s siblings thriving in their homes - Thankyou to their owners for letting me know how they are doing. . Unfortunately there are very limited puppies available, but as always I’m happy to recommend other litters I’m aware of with similar lines meaning they will be related in some way. At this present time - Rollo has sired a litter of a local breeder to me, if you wish to get the details of the Registered ANKC Dogs Australia breeder please PM.

Since changing my adults to an all raw barf diet provided by @petmincedirect I haven’t looked back. Beautiful gleaming coats, less 💩 and proper coat drops/maintenance. 😍 . We understand that raw isn’t for everyone so have incorporated @royalcaninanz starter mousse and kibble as they grow (along with raw barf). . This helps future owners decide what they wish to continue on with. . These babies love their mixture of RC mousse, raw barf, and goats milk. They have sharp teefies and Reign will be starting to wean them off her…. Because ouchies!!

Made some amazing mugs today with our beautiful logo. . Didn’t expect them to turn out so good. 🥰😍 . They’ll definitely be making hot drinks taste even better. ☕️ 🫖 🍫

25/9/2022 I only just found this video sent to me by Karen Smith - Thankyou!! At 5months and 5days old - I took the kids down to Kootingle for the New England Celtic and All Breeds Kennel Club held in conjunction with Uralla. Rollo was awarded Baby Puppy In Group, under Ms Sharyn Phillips (QLD) on the Friday, then went onto his (and my) first Baby Puppy In Show under Mr Donald Mahoney (NSW) Baby Puppy in Group on Saturday. 🎀 On Sunday Rollo topped it off with another Baby Puppy In Group under Don, and converted that to a Baby Puppy In Show under Elizabeth Hindley (ACT). Our first weekend away playing show dog. What a super young promising dog from the get go, he is maturing and filling out very nicely . 💝 Everyday I know how blessed I am. I have Gloria Woodward to thank for allowing him to come home with me. Lucky 🍀 I asked 😊 (and I usually don’t ask for things) I also know exactly why she says “I can’t believe I let him go!!” What a super mover 😍 You have an eye for a pedigree and you knew exactly which dog would compliment Annie. So thankful to the pedigree behind my Rollo, he is certainly a character at home, a kind temperament and just majestic to look at with his beautiful dark eyes, + he gives the best cuddles. 💚 Ch Aberlee Rollin In Sunshine ☀️ “Rollo” 🍫 (Ch Aberlee French Connection x Am Ch.

Everyday is a blessing ❤️

Whether you’ve had a bad day, a good day - they’re always there to please.

Brie - Tooshort A Lil French Kiss At 1year and 2weeks - Junior Class Video from WCCNSW Inc speciality - judge Betsey Orman (USA). So proud on how she is performing, only been shown a handful of times due to growing and seasons/coat drops. She was in a competitive class of 7, and was placed 4th - with her lack of coat I couldn’t be anymore prouder of my first home bred girl. Her pedigree is Ch. Aberlee French Connection Ch. Aberlee Reign Of Love Thankyou Gloria Woodward for entrusting me with your lovely pedigree to continue on with.

Supreme Ch Aberlee Take It To The Limit

This is Sup Ch Aberlee Take it To The Limit “Mason” who turned 12 yesterday (video from today). . Mason is…. Great Grandfather & GG Grandfather to Reign GG & GGG Grandfather to Brie and her siblings Grandfather to Rollo . Mason is a beautiful sire to many champions, his other Grandson Ritchie is also a supreme (Sup Ch Aberlee Right Here Waiting). Something which we are hopeful to attain with Rollo. Although Rollo is maturing like a fine wine, his time will come.

Merry Christmas
