Member of the CKC, PWCCSC, & PWCA(C). I update that list as new litters are born and go to their new homes.

Thank you for your interest in and support for Capriccio Pembroke Welsh Corgis! I’m a small hobby breeder that breeds fairly infrequently, and my current waitlist policy is that I keep a very short pet puppy waitlist. If you are willing to be patient, I’d love to get to know you better, regardless if my waitlist is officially open or not. I understand that sometimes people are not willing to wait

for over a year or two, or three, for a puppy – and that is fine by me. If you do go ahead and purchase a puppy from another breeder, PLEASE reach out and let me know so that I can take your name off the list (so that someone else has a chance). Also, please let me know if you are on other waitlists. I will match a puppy to you based on your needs and the puppy’s temperament. Puppies go home between 10-12 weeks depending on the situation, and adult dogs (retirees) will also have a month “probation” where the dog will spend some time with both myself and the new family to ensure a new transition. In terms of health testing for my dogs, I test for von Willebrand’s disease, Degenerative Myelopathy (we can talk more about this later), hip dysplasia, and CERF eye testing. My dogs are shown under the CANADIAN KENNEL CLUB (CKC – NOT the ConKC, the Continental Kennel club, which is a scam registry), and in the future perhaps under the AKC. Dogs involved in my breeding program are proven examples of the breed, and I breed towards the Pembroke Welsh Corgi breed standard (structure x function) as much as possible. I do this in order to preserve the breed out of love for well-bred purebred dogs. Thank you for taking the time to read this, and don't hesitate to reach out with questions or concerns.

So thrilled with how this little goon is growing on. He's starting to look like a big boy already at just under 8 months. (Did I mention that having only 1 dog at home is a little...lonely?)

Stryker x Oona, Summer 2022. So glad for the support of those who have enabled me to get to this point 🔥❤️🔥❤️

Practice makes perfect - whether with my own dog or ...tripping over my friends' dogs 🤣🤣🤣💩 and stepping in puke 🤢🙃

This is what is called a "free stack", when a dog naturally walks into a position where the judge can visually assess its structure. While some exhibitors prefer to "hand stack" their dogs by moving their feet manually, I personally much prefer to let the dog show itself off 😀 😄 😎

Happy to answer questions about showing, training, and handling dogs below! 😘😘

Couldn't resist sharing this adorable candid of the 2 monsters 🥺 we've signed Agatha up for 2 show weekends at the very beginning of October 💪 Lindsay ON and Saint-Lazare, QC!

Training and bathing begins today! We have a refresher handling class together on the 13th to pick things back up ❤️

I've been thinking of rally obedience and agility foundations with Agatha as well as getting her Sprinter and CGN... ET TU, INDECISION PARALYSIS?? somebody help 🤣🤣

This is the bum of a puppy who ripped my beanbag cover. Pray for my beanbag - that it may survive until the next cover arrives!!!

A delightful little painting of Pearl that Chopper's (prev. Bruno) owner dropped off on her journey to pick up her baby!🌟

Swipe to see a less coated, less smiley momma dog. 🙈🤣👀

Part 1/3 - if you want to skip the wait, the entire article is on my website!

"I don't need a show/sport dog, I just want a pet!"

We've all heard someone say this at least once in their search for their furry family friend. There’s this general misconception that whether a dog is shown or not has nothing to do with its ability to be a wonderful companion. I’m here to talk about how showing fits into a responsible breeding program, and how that affects you, as a prospective puppy buyer.

Dog shows help breeders evaluate the temperament and physical structure of their own dogs by competing against other dogs of the same breed - and comparing them to their respective breed standards. Although they aren’t often talked about, dog shows often have hundreds (or even thousands) of dogs and humans present at the same time in an enclosed area. Sometimes participants are spaced out, but also there are also times when 20 dogs are stacked nose-to-tail in the show ring!

These dogs are trained from a very young age to work with and focus on their human handler, and must have stable enough temperaments to tolerate this proximity to other dogs and being touched by strangers - and the general ruckus of a dog show! Dogs that are excessively shy or aggressive - whether towards humans or other dogs - are likely to be excused from the show ring, or even disqualified from further showing.

Follow along if you find this interesting, and leave a note or feedback if you've got any thoughts! Penned by myself.

Spent some quality time enjoying the snow with my two remaining littles (Chopper is being picked up Jan 11th, 2022!) and Pearl. I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I enjoyed taking them!

Also check out my most recent blog post on my (almost) brand-spanking new website - https://www.capricciocorgis.com/blog/musingsof2021

Hopefully I'll have a newsletter set up soon - and also get started on penning some useful articles for you all!

First time using the direct share option from Instagram - pardon the redirect!

So excited to get this website live - I wanted to make sure it was up and running for Christmas, but I recognize that some parts are still works in progress.

Forgive the mess on some pages!
