I’m in Spain this week and there’s a Corgi Cafe by our hotel! The little gremlin actually jumped up and grabbed a mouthful of salad off my plate 😂

This was Howard’s epic barn hunt leap tonight.

The gerbil was in a tube in between the bales on the right. Howard was on top of the bale on the left. I don’t know if it was pure luck or he actually caught the odour but he launched fully from where he was to where the gerbil was and found it in a second. I’m still deciding if he’s skilled or crazy.

This is what Kevyn would look like with floppy ears. You’re welcome. (Life can’t always be serious!)

I told Howard he has to carry his own trachea 😂

Life has been busy! Howard is back to agility classes and Kevyn is heading back to scent hurdle soon. Howard is going to be starting scent hurdle! As winter descends it’s hard to want to get outside but we try.

I am getting a lot of applications for my anticipated upcoming litter. I wanted to tell everyone the process to get on an upcoming or future puppy list.

1) fill out an application on the website (www.cydwelicorgis.com)
2) once your application is approved we set up a zoom call to chat further. This is usually arranged closer to when I have a breeding or once I know the breeding took
3) once I do a breeding I email everyone on my list to let them know she’s been bred
4) once the pregnancy is confirmed around 30 days post-breeding I email again to say whether she is confirmed pregnant or not
5) I again email when the puppies are born and also post all the cute pics here
6) when the puppies are around two weeks old I contact people in order of application approval to see if they are interested in a puppy. When you are offered one, if you want one from that litter, a $500 deposit is due within seven days. The balance is due before the puppy goes home between 11-12 weeks.

I do not take deposits until I’ve offered you a puppy from a litter.

Here are our dam and sire for our upcoming litter.

Ch. Bredright’s Gift of Gold “Goldie” and Multi Ch. Mistycor Shining Ron Weasley “Ron” who hails from France!

From start to finish ❤️

Kevyn’s first show and Kevyn’s last show. Both with Honey Glendinning.

If you have sent a puppy application in the last couple of months and are still interested, please contact me. I am doing a bitch lease with a fall breeding planned. If all goes well, puppies will be born in December and go home in March. The pick male and female are spoken for but we will consider potential show homes for this litter.

The sire is a natural bobtail so some puppies will have short tails and some natural.

This will be a beautiful litter with beautiful pedigrees and we may seek care homes as well. More info to follow!

Pic of Howard for tax! He is not the sire!

Gosh. More prizes and rosettes for my doggos. And here I thought I could get away with a carry-on suitcase 😂

The dogs are also trying a new sport called Rats this weekend and cleaning up nicely! Ribbons from day one and two titles!

Kevyn, Howard and I are at our National Specialty near Ottawa this weekend.

Howard took first in his class and won these amazing prizes.

And Kev…what can I say….I’m over the moon!!

In a class of 54 Pembrokes Kevyn and I showed our little hearts out and MADE THE CUT FOR BEST OF BREED!!

We didn’t get it but never did I ever think we would get as far as we did! 54 beautiful Pems and miss Kev stood out enough 😍😍

Whipped cream for everyone!

I also had the opportunity to show this beautiful Special for a friend. We placed as Select all four days.

Kevyn and I spent the last four days at an agility trial. She had some fantastic runs and some that definitely need some work! This was her Excellent Standard yesterday which would have been clean except she had a refusal at the table. The courses were beautiful but my girl just needs a bit more confidence. She moved from Novice to Intermediate to Excellent VERY fast - in about four weekends which is insanely fast, so now we know what we need to work on.

It’s just not about putting two dogs together to make puppies. It really isn’t. We make sure we check every single box on this chart, and, we still actively look for reasons NOT to breed our dog. If we really can’t come up with any (noting there is no such thing as a perfect dog), we then look for a sire and go through the entire process of evaluating whether we should, on paper, but then we also have to look at his structure and temperament and determine if it’s the right match for our b***h.

We spend hundreds of hours reading and learning pedigrees, connecting with other breeders, and trying to do our breed justice.

And then, sometimes crap happens. We lose a litter. We LOSE OUR B***H. The breeding doesn’t take. The genetics go wonky. And then we spend 12 WEEKS raising the puppies 24/7, all while assessing applications, vetting new homes, socializing and training the puppies, and monitoring our b***h for things that can STILL K!LL her weeks after birth.

It’s not easy. It’s not for the faint of heart. It’s not for those without a moral compass. And it’s why I can never support a byb. I don’t care how cute their puppies are. They’ve done zero work and take zero accountability down the road. Full stop.
