Breuddwyd is welsh for dream and Breuddwyd Cardigans is just that, a dream becoming reality.
I have been involved in dogs my entire life and started showing Jack Russell Terriers in JRTCA when I was 7. From there I moved onto AKC and mentored under multiple breeders and handlers while also competing in Junior Showmanship with Pembroke Welsh Corgis. I have also been involved in showing Pygmy goats and Boer goats in FFA and was an active member in my cities 4H dog project. My passion has always lied in dogs and I was definitely that kid who would spend hours telling anyone who would listen all about them. I found my home within the herding group, owning Pembroke Welsh Corgis and Australian Cattle Dogs for many years.
Flashforward to 2014 when I brought home my first Cardigan Welsh Corgi. I cannot imagine my life without Cattle Dogs and Cardigans now. This happy, versatile, hard working breed has truly shown me that amazing things come in small packages.
I am currently a member of the Cardigan Welsh Corgi Club of Southern California.
I am also an AKC approved CGC, Trick Dog, and Farm Dog evaluator as well as a Fit Dog Level 1 instructor. Currently I am progressing towards Level 2 and 3 Fit Dog instructor and ATT (AKC Temperament Test) evaluator. Encouraging all pet owners to get involved with their dogs is extremely important to me. You do not need a purebred dog to have fun and earn titles!
Health, Structure, and Temperament are our top priorities.
We strive to produce intelligent, healthy, versatile puppies. Our dogs currently compete in conformation as well as performance events such as herding, rally, and agility. We also dabble in some fun sports like barn hunt, nose work, and lure coursing. At the end of the day we want our dogs to enjoy all our adventures as much as we do.
All our puppies are raised with Puppy Culture protocols.
Our dogs are fully health tested through GenSol, UC Davis, and OFA. We test for DM, BAER, CAER, PRA, and Hips. We also do cosmetic testing for genes like merle, recessive red, brown and coat length. Before going to their new home puppies will be tested for DM, PRA, BAER (hearing), CAER(eyes), and merle (if applicable). For puppies who are show or breeding prospects we will also test for recessive red, brown, and coat length.
All puppies are sold with limited AKC registration and spay/neuter contracts unless discussed otherwise.
