Haystack
Acres' Corgis get Breeder highlight in an issue of Family Pet magazine!

Hi,
Lynn – Today is our Gracie’s 2nd birthday! Time has flown - it’s been forever that I’ve been meaning to send you an update about her. She was born 3/27/10, we brought her home from Haystack I think the last week in May when she was 9 weeks...we were in love with her immediately, but of course in the last two years, words can’t express how much our love for her grows each day. Such a smiley, affectionate, happy dog! She was a bit stubborn at first with housebreaking, and then just didn’t want to sleep much. Always up by 4:30-5:00am – we thought she’d never have a regular schedule! But suddenly at around 8-9 months, that all changed (almost overnight) and she realized sleeping is a good thing! We had no idea when we got her, how much her color would change over the first year. We absolutely love how it turned out. When I look at your website, I can’t get over how much she looks like one of her littermates (Timber) – and Ozzy from a previous litter. And of course, like Jazzy and Tank – you can definitely see the resemblance. Gracie has a beautiful soft wave down her back, and her little stub tail is perfectly outlined with a dark triangle, and some dark highlights around her face and neck. Of course we think she’s the prettiest Corgi we’ve ever seen. We have attended a number of the Littleton Corgi Club “meet-ups” and it’s so fun to run into other “Haystack” Corgi’s there, some from Tank & Jazz litters as well – they all look so much alike. Gracie is a bit smaller – she’s around 27 pounds and I doubt she’ll get much bigger. Gracie’s been a joy to train – so smart and learns everything quickly. She and Finnegan (our 7 year old lab/SharPei mix) have become the BEST of friends. They are joined at the hip, and do everything together. Gracie is so protective of him. We go to dog parks with the two of them a lot, and when other dogs come over to say hi to Finn, she tries to butt in and shoo them off. But she loves other dogs and people, and is very sociable. Everyone adores her, and always asks where we got her. I can’t tell you how many people I’ve recommended to you if they’re interested in a Corgi! I check your website often to see what new litters you have...one of these days, perhaps next year, we might want to add another to our family – so we’ll definitely be in touch. Mick and I are empty-nesters now – so our pups are just spoiled rotten. One of these days, we’ll come by Haystack with Gracie for a visit (always fun for us to see puppies). Then you can see for yourself what a wonderful, happy, sweetie-pie she is. Just the light of our lives! Here’s a link to a video from one of our many dog park visits last summer (there’s a number of videos of Gracie & Finn on YouTube, just search for my account “jlgwin”). http://youtu.be/R_UoXUI7pFc Jayme Gwin |

Greetings
Lynn, I am not sure if you remember me or not but my husband Mike and I purchased a corgi puppy from you about a year ago. I wanted to send you a quick email update on Lily. She has brought so much joy to our lives. Her favorite hobbies are chasing our Siamese cat Sasha (Sasha loves to be chased) and hiking with her mom and dad. I can't thank you enough for giving us such a wonderful dog. She is a true blessing. Thanks again, Lindsay, Mike, Sasha and Lily Lemon |

Hi
Lynn We thought you might like an update on Brody. He's now 8+ months old. We took him on a snowshoeing hike last week and he blazed the trail through two foot deep powder snow. We're sure enjoying him. He gets along great with our Schnauzer, Greta and cat, Sophie. Cathy took the attached cute picture of him. Mike & Cathy Schermer |

Hi
Lynn and Debbie I hope all is well with you and yours. Just wanted to let you know, that everyone who sees Lily falls in love with her. Lily is such a happy, quiet, little girl and is equally up for a good game of tug-a-war, go fetch but keep away, go chase a cat or birds, or just sleeping by the family. We have never seen a more well behaved Corgi and couldn't be happier with her. Although at times she is a little mischievous and knows it when she is, which is so cute when she plays, "make me do it"! Although we live in KS, we have highly recommended your ranch to all who express an interest in where we got Lily and sometimes even to those who don't ask. Keep in touch. HUGS, Elaine Peters |

Dear
Lynn, I had no inkling what joy a Corgi would bring to our lives! Allegretta is an absolutely wonderful dog, the best family dog I have ever known. She's smart and independent, feisty, gallant and loving, really a remarkable personality. We all love her! As her color changes and she takes on a gorgeous deep red-gold and cream coloring, the sabling on her shoulders and hindquarters adds to her great beauty — this is lovely to see. She likes to be part of everything the family does, but she's playful and creative on her own as well, sometimes with very funny results (like when she carefully piles up laundry to hide her favorite toy). She's wonderful with people of all ages, other dogs, even other pets (our guinea pig thinks she's the bee's knees). She's quick to learn, and even though she has a mind of her own she is eager to please and very obedient. I can't believe how athletic she is — it is a delight to see with what joy and ease she uses her body. I cannot imagine a better dog for our family. Many thanks for breeding such an extraordinary creature and providing her with the early care that allowed her remarkable personality to shine! All the very best wishes, Beth |

Hi
Lynn, Greetings from Germany! I hope you are doing well. I don't know if you remember us, but my fiancée, Shazzarah, and I added Oakley, our tri-color male Corgi, to our family last December from Haystack Acres. We are the couple that was moving to Germany in the Spring. I just wanted to send a short message letting you know that we couldn't be happier with our Corgi. Oakley has been a great companion for us, especially for Shazzarah, as she's needed a partner in exploring the city while I've been working. We've spent a lot of time walking Oakley around the wonderful parks and sites in Dusseldorf. We have only seen one other Corgi in our 6 months in Germany. People are always very intrigued by Oakley, asking what type of dog he is and are amused by his constant energy. We'll be back in Colorado in the next few weeks for our wedding. (where Oakley will be the ring-bearer) Oakley is quite a character and loves to travel. (Oakley is accumulating quite a few frequent flier miles!) Adding him to the family was definitely one of the best decisions Shazzarah and I have made. Best regards, Cameron Moyer |

Hi
Lynn, Frankie is the happiest and smartest dog I have ever had, she even won the heart of my husband the minute he saw her. We've had no trouble with her, other than the fact she can tear apart a stuffed toy in about five minutes and if the plastic is too thin on an all plastic one, it's also ripped apart in just a few minutes. All we could figure out was that it was a challenge to her, obviously we have learned what toys not to buy (the picture with the black ring on her face, is one she can't chew up). She loves to play keep away and fetch and even knows which toy is which. All we have to do is tell her to go get her piggy and she brings the piggy. We put in a doggie door for her; she learned how to use it in just a few practices with treats, so she no longer has to sleep in her "house" (crate). She knows what it means when we tell her it's time to get in your house. She loves to jump in the swing in the backyard and just swing back and forth. We haven't managed to get her swimming yet, she loves baths and she will get on the top step when we are in the pool, otherwise she wants nothing to do with the pool. She loves to travel and is great in the car or truck. We take her with her when we go on a trip, this girl will never be boarded. No matter where we go people just love her and she loves people. Thank you so much for breeding such wonderful and happy Corgis. Cheri Caldwell |

Hi
Lynn! We love our little Corgi so much, she has been an absolute delight! She is a Corgi by all definitions, which is great at some times and frustrating at others, but that is what makes her so much fun. She is always the star of the show and I have had a lot of people come up and ask where we got her and I always highly recommend you. A couple of people have even told me they ran across your website so it was great to be able to show off one of your dogs and show them what a delight she is. We were wondering if you were still doing Corgi camps and how much they were. We are looking at on going on vacation towards the end of July and figured that she would love to go play with some more dogs her size. Currently her best friends are Labs and Bernese Mountain dogs. We can’t wait till she gets a little older and we get a little more space so we can get another. Hope all is well and if you ever need a recommendation or somebody want to see one of your dogs in the Arvada area please let us know. Scott Finn |
Belle By Josh out of Miss Patsy |
Happy
belated birthday to all Luna’s siblings! She just had a wonderful
first birthday and thanks to all at Haystack Acres! She is sweet and wonderful,
loves to sit in laps, gives kisses freely, and does great Corgi Therapy
for our son, Chris, who gets blue sometimes. He’s 12. We also adopted
a “range corgi” Cuddles from a semi-pro breeder in Eastern
New Mexico, and they’re as different as night and day. We love them
both, but he’s a corgi, and she’s a Pembroke Welsh Corgi,
thank you very much. She comes running when the camera’s out. She’s
royalty, he’s, well – he’s sort of like Dick van Dyke
as a chimney-sweep in the old Disney movies. Steve Vaughn |

Hi
Lynn, Today is Bailey's first birthday, and we wanted to thank you for giving such a wonderful puppy to us. He has been a pure joy and is the love of our lives. We've attached some pictures of Bailey so you can see what a handsome dog he's grown into (he's one of the cutest dogs in the neighborhood!). Best Regards, Rob and Kumi |
Bailey ![]() By Tank out of Miss Precious Penny |
Hiya
Lynn! He is incredible. He already knows how to work the Medic Alert box; he was 85% housetrained in three days, and 99% in three weeks; he walks everywhere with me without needing a leash (I have one on him, but he never strays more than 5 feet away from me); he lies quietly beneath my chair at endless doctor appointments, visits to the post office, and trips to the pharmacy; he loves friends and strangers alike--whether they be adults, children, horses, cats, or dogs--and has a curiosity and bravery that belies his young age. Everyone who meets him is utterly charmed--they can't get over his excellent behavior, his beautiful color, his adorable manner, and his fine confirmation. I have given your website address out more times than I can count. It's looking like you better get some litters in the pipeline--there's gonna be a run on Corgis soon! THANK YOU. Lotsa love, Aimee Bingler and Joey Jr.!! |

Hi
Lynn; We are so happy with our little Timber. He is growing fast. Soon he will have his vest that says Therapy Dog in Training for the days that he goes to the office. We look forward to you coming to fish with your family. ~Update-Story~ We've had quite a 24 hours up here with the worry about the fire and whether we would have to evacuate up here. So far we are out of the evacuation zone. Are you getting a lot of smoke where you are and how are your animals doing? We had an amazing experience with Timber. Damaris went for a walk with Timber to her brother's house on the ranch. His house is about a mile away down in a valley. Damaris went inside for a few minutes, Timber was outside with the other dogs. Suddenly a 65mph gust of wind came up which must have unnerved him, as it unnerved me when I was outside. When Damaris came out Timber was gone and had come home on his own. He not only found his way home within a few minutes but had to go across several planks, across mud holes and streams, thru the trees and willows, up a trail that is on a steep slope behind our house, coming straight home. You were right! He is a bold little guy and is a perfect ranch dog who has to deal with all sorts of crazy things up here. He goes by the cows and is very calm and does not chase them. He announces with a bark when someone comes to the house and is a good watch dog. We couldn't be more pleased with our choice. Hope all is well for you and your family. Steve and Damaris Methner. |

Hi
Lynn, We named him The Blizzard of Oz...everyone calls him Ozzy. He's a wonderful addition to the family, very happy and full of LOTS of energy! At just about 5 months old he's grown by leaps and bounds; actually faster than I had hoped but I guess that's true of all babies. He's now just about 25 lbs, he's into everything and very playful. Take care and again thank you for such a wonderful lil' guy. ~Update~ I just wanted to share this photo of Ozzy (Tank/Jazzy 03/31/2009); he’s a healthy, happy and very spoiled Pup!

Hi
Lynn, Here are some recent pictures of Bax and new adventures....as you can see - He is harnessed in - he loves to go on any rides - not to mention he is the camp star when we are out with friends! ~Update~ Just a quick note to say Hi and let you know all is well in The Wekell Household. Bax and Bailey are getting on just as one would expect. Cuddling one moment, barking, chasing and growling the next. They take turns herding each other - I can only imagine how it will be in the next couple of months as Bailey gets bigger. I caught a few shots that I thought I would send on. Bailey is a doll - doing well on housetraining - running the house as you might expect. As you can see - Bax is coming into his own - looking a lot like his dad. He actually posed for a few shots this morning when we were out in the back pasture. They were watching our neighbors horses - wanting to go play. Thanks again for raising such nice dogs. We really enjoy them. Pete and Darcy Wekell |

Hi
Lynn, Well today is Maggie's 1st birthday. I can't express how happy I am with her. She is everything I wanted and more. She is so loving and has the attitude that she is willing to learn. She may do something wrong but is very quick to figure out what she did wrong and fix it. Her favorite thing to do is chase a ball around the house with a bone in her mouth. It is hilarious to watch. She also loves to cuddle not only with me but also our older dog. We are now starting to get her use to the horses and cattle and watching the herding instinct coming out. I am excited to see how she does with a little more training and age. Maggie loves to walk herself when we go out for our daily walks, which in fact I don't think we have gone on one walk where I haven't gotten compliments on how cute of a dog she is. I could have not asked for a better dog and hopefully one day can add another Haystack Acres puppy to the family:) Jessica Stiles Maggie ![]() ![]() ![]() By Josh out of Miss Dolly |
Lynn,
The two amazing Corgis I got from you last June are about to turn one. I have attached a picture of their first Easter! You will probably remember me because I took a male long hair and the beautiful blind short hair female. I am so happy to inform you that they are the most amazing animals and my little blind baby is truly an angel in my life! She is doing wonderful and we honestly don't have to do anything different for her! She runs up and down the stairs, in and out the dog door, goes on long walks and hikes, chases the cats... she is so brilliant and beautiful. They have enriched my husbands and my lives. They are happy and healthy beautiful corgis! Sincerely, Nicole Sandoval Longmont, CO Cheza and Jonas By Josh - Cheza out of Miss Cowgirl; Jonas out of Miss Dolly |
Dear
Lynn, I have attached a photo of our Oscar, who is now just five months old. I think you'll agree that he's a handsome little devil. More importantly, he's an incredibly sweet-tempered dog, and we couldn't be happier with him. He gets along really well with our twelve-year-old shepherd mix (and vice versa); he's well-behaved in the house; and he makes friends wherever he goes. I thought you might like to have some news of him, and to know that he's doing well. Best regards, Warren Motte Oscar By Tank out of Miss Precious Penny |
Hi
Lynn, Just thought you'd like to see her. She was in the local high school play "A Midsummer's Night Dream" She had the role of "Lantern's Dog" What a riot!!! She did such a great job! She went to rehearsals every day after school. She was on campus for the school play (2 shows with audiences of 500 students) and then had 2 nights of the show. What a great dog you sold us! She has some training in obedience, agility, and conformation. It made the perfect combination for learning her marks on the stage. She did love to be the center of attention up on that stage. It was a portable stage and she didn't like the vibrations so much. It's good that PWCs are so highly trainable. She was quite the diva once she got used to that. She had a sold out audience both nights and handled it like a pro. She'll be 3 years old this summer and definitely rules over the 3 males in the house. This year's play doesn't have a role for a dog, unfortunately. Laura Tank's Precious Galadriel - "Gladdy" By Tank out of Miss Precious Penny |
Hi
Lynn, Hope you are well. Suki is a total love and is enjoying the snow. She is such a smart puppy and is the perfect addition to our family. Thanks! Here she is at 12 weeks! Sabina Suki ~Update~ Hi Lynn, Hope you are well. I have referred several people to you and get stopped everywhere I go with Suki. A lady actually chased me down the other day just to come over and pet her! She loves people so much and is excited to meet everyone. Her face has really changed and we are getting ready for the big spay, which I'm nervous about, but I'm sure will be no biggie. Anyway, just thought I'd keep you posted on her. ![]() By Josh out of Singing In The Rain "Punkin" |
Hi
Lynn, It has been awhile since we sent you pictures of our big guy. My dad wanted him to have a unique name... so he named him Bud-E instead of Buddy :) Pretty unique huh, ha ha. He has been a great addition to the Schler Family and I wanted to thank you again for giving us such a great dog! He definitely has a lot of his dad "Tank" in him! He is a stout little guy. He is awesome with my 4 yr old nephew and 6 month old niece. Nathan Schler Grand Junction, CO Bud-E ![]() By Tank out of Miss Cowgirl Katie |
Hi
Lynn, I'm not sure if you remember us, but we are the very proud parents of Kona. I can't tell you the number of times we are stopped with Kona by people telling us not only how beautiful she is, but also how well mannered and what a great disposition she has. Well, we are thinking that it is a good time to get her a little sister. We are specifically interested in another puppy from Suzy Q and Tank. I noticed that you will be breeding Suzy Q later this year and are wondering who the Sire will be. Thank you for breeding such AMAZING Corgi's. We are looking forward to adding another amazing little girl to our lives. Sharon & Joe. Kona ![]() ![]() By Tank out of Rock'n Roller Suzy Q

Hello
Lynn, We've had Brody for a few weeks now so here's an update on our handsome little boy! Brody settled in almost immediately and only cried the first 2 nights away from his siblings. He loves his "Kitty", who happens to be our 2 year old cat named Jaspurr. They quickly discovered the game of wrestling and it's hard to keep them apart. Brody has excellent manners already! He is working hard at learning commands; he has "no" and "sit" down perfectly and is quickly figuring out what "come" means. He also loves to chase his wide variety of toys and is always content to lie down and chew a bone. Potty training was a breeze and he's almost 100% there! He surprised us all a couple of weeks ago when he went to the back door for the first time and asked to go outside! We thank you so much for our "pick of the litter", and all of your help and patience with our questions and visits. We will without a doubt return to Haystack Acres for our next Corgi! John & Britta Erie, Colorado Brody ![]() By Tank out of Miss Whitney |

Hi
all, Nellie just turned ONE! Miss Nellie-Belly otherwise known as Nellie-Bellicosa. It's hard to believe that Nellie has been with us for nine months. Nellie entered our house with two older Corgis Sophie and Ralphy. It took us WEEKS to name her. Her personality was all over the place, all five pounds of it. Nellie really has her dad's markings. We never let our older corgis on the furniture, etc. but this girl rules, runs and does the rounds on the sofa as she encourages her elders to give chase and play with her. She will be the alpha of the pack and already supervises supper time. She loves the snow like a lunatic and rules her little acre. She is truly brave and crazy and a lovey lovey girl. What great personality genes! Patricia Adams Roxbury, New York Nellie ![]() ![]() By Tank out of Rock'n Roller Suzy Q |
Hi
Lynn, We LOVE this little guy, he is adorable! He goes to the bank, post office, town hall, lacrosse practice at the high school, he goes everywhere. He is even going with us up to see our daughter at school, we are surprising her and bringing him with us. He is just such a great dog and we have really fallen in love with him! I have been taking a lot of pictures, a lot with my phone when I should be taking them with the camera! I promise to get some to you. Everyone loves the name Bob which is so funny to me. One of Bob's favorite places is the beach, he loves running around, exploring, and just taking it all in. I just wanted to touch base and let you know he is doing great, smart as a whip! He is so darn cute we can't stand it! ~Update~ Bob wants to wish all of his family at Haystack Acres a Happy New Year. We are celebrating Bob's first birthday today and he wishes all of his brothers and sisters a Happy Birthday. We are having such a great time with Bob and he is such great company with both of our children off in school. He is so sweet and loving and so friendly with everybody. My husband Peter takes him with him every night when he goes for his walk so Bob is getting plenty of exercise. We just love him and get so-o-o many compliments on him! He is like a movie star! We really have considered getting another Corgi from you but have settled into such a nice routine that I'm a little hesitant to rock the apple cart! He travels so well and just goes with the flow. I'm not sure how it will work with two but believe me if we ever get another Corgi it will certainly be from Haystack Acres!! Liz and Peter Bob By Tank out of Rock'n Roller Suzy Q |
Okay,
Dean and I knew the breed was smart but really! Angus scared and amazed
us all at the same time. On Monday, since it was a little cold, I left
all the dogs in the courtyard (it’s a private fenced are within
our backyard .. 8 ft fences!) that attaches to the laundry
room and garage so they could come in (although snow and cold seem to
be Gus’ thing). Dean called me when he got up a couple of hours
later and asked if I had taken Angus to work. Immediately, I knew he was
gone. I headed home from Evergreen and Dean started frantically looking
and trying to figure out how he could have gotten out at the same time.
5 minutes later I get a call that he was found in a front
yard 3 houses away but I should come home so I could
see his escape route. Well, smart he is .. by watching our cat (who’s
19 and not so agile anymore) get on a chair, then on
the café table then on the 4” ledge around
our house, he managed to balance and squeeze himself through the gap between
the fence and house. I’m sure it was then that he realized he couldn’t
turn around so he kept moving .. when he ran out of ledge, he jumped into
the driveway and off he went. Needless to say, the chairs and tables have
been moved and the gap closed up (who knew it was a escape route 5
feet off the ground!). Now he just sits and looks at it and whines! He’s
always one step ahead of us. And he’s as gorgeous as ever. We really love him .. more than we thought we would. We can’t thank you enough for bringing him into our lives! Colleen and Dean Norton Lakewood Colorado Angus

Hi
Lynn, Here is a picture of "Indy" aka "Star" who we bought from you back in September. He is out of Miss Kandy Dancer, born July 4th. We were going to name him "Star" but changed it to "Indiana" in the car on the way home. Anyway, he is a wonderful, wonderful dog! He is exactly what I was hoping for in a running companion. I run with him off-leash on open space paths and I've been teaching him hand signals. He already knows "arm up" means wait, "arm down" means go, "arm down and pointing to the ground" means come to me and sit. He is also a wonderful family dog and just a joy to have around. He is LOVING the snow. After running a few miles he likes to bury himself in the snow and lay down for a minute or two. He is also super friendly and loves everyone he meets. Laurie and the Harford family Superior, Colorado Indy By Tank out of Miss Kandy Dancer |
Finney
has been quite the special little boy to us, since we lost our two Bernese
Mountain Dogs to cancer just 7 weeks apart this past
Spring. He has brought back laughter and joy to our home. Finney is quite
the little character, he constantly brings a smile to our faces. You never
know what he is going to do next. One minute he's blowing bubbles in his
water bowl and the next he is in your lap giving you lots of kisses. He
constantly runs around the house with his stuffed toys in his mouth making
them make noises. The louder the better! Now that Fall is in the air we
take him for lots of car rides. Finney loves to go bye bye! He is such
a good boy in the car. We just can't say enough about our little guy!
We love him so much! Beth & Ted Randolph Aurora, Colorado Finnegan

Hi
Lynn, I am so sorry that I have not written or sent pictures of our sweet Chloe. We had 2 others dogs and had just lost our oldest dog when we purchased Chloe from you. We have since lost our other dogs to old age and now Chloe is the only child. She has been so much fun! She loves to take long walks in morning with her Daddy in the cold rain, she just loves to be outside. She is very social, in fact she thinks that all people who come to our house are here to see her! My Mother who came with me to pick her up was diagnosed with cancer last August and has been living with us so Chloe is her caregiver. She has brought such joy into our lives we were so truly blessed to find you and your wonderful Corgi puppies! By the way she really does keep us in line!!!! Our Vet says they have never seen such a beautiful Corgi.... we most definitely think she is! Much love Crispin and Michelle Roaque Taos, New Mexico Chloe ![]() By Elvis out of Rock'n Roller Suzy Q |
| The
puppies are doing great....I named the female Molly and the male Tiger.
She is more adventurous that he is but he stalks her like a Tiger when
they are playing. I do not have a digital camera, but when this roll is
developed I will scan them into the computer and e-mail you the pictures.
I will be happy to keep you informed as to how they are doing. We went
to the vet Thursday for their 2nd round of shots and to get their chart
started. They were the hit of the day. My vet is also a Corgi person and
he was highly impressed by the breeding in these two. Feel free to contact
me at any time. Ross Culbert Farmington, New Mexico |

Hello,
Lynn! I hope this finds you and yours doing well in '08. Just a long overdue note here with pics (Fall/Winter '07) of this precious pup ... Gabby. We do need to take more current photos and send some to you as she has really matured since these were taken. We want to thank you again for sticking with us and giving us this adorable little blessing. She's an incorrigible addition to our family and is loved by all! (Wish we had two of her!) Everyone is enamored of her when she's out and about, so we always refer them to your website. Anyway, thank you so very much and God Bless! Tray, Barbara & Keith |

Hi
Lynn... I just wanted to send you a couple of pictures of Shorty and give you an update on him. He settled into the family quite easily, and spends his time getting beat up by the cat on a regular basis, who by the way is his best friend. He has been such a wonderful addition to the family, my parents, siblings, everyone just loves him! He is such a clown and loves to be the center of attention. At Thanksgiving, he was the hit of the party, winning over everyone's hearts. I take him to the dog park a few times a week and I call him the ambassador as he has to go and meet everyone there, and everyone that comes in, both dog and human. I can't even tell you how many times people have told me that he is the cutest puppy they have ever seen. One woman pulled up next to me at a stop light to ask me what kind of dog he was and told me she doesn't even like dogs but he was the cutest thing ever. When I take him to the vet, they always tell me they can't wait until I have a little more room to get him a little sister, because I've discovered that only one is not enough! Happy Holidays to you and your family, and thank you for bringing Shorty into my life! Blaike Kohlmeyer Las Vegas, Nevada Shorty
~Update~ Hi Lynn, just wanted to send a new picture of Shorty, who is now "Moose". He's such a goofball, and always into everything, including people's laps, that he became more of a "Moose". Everyone who meets him absolutely loves him, he's so adorable, and has so much personality, that he has a huge fan club. He loves to have his picture taken, when I took this for Christmas, he sat wearing the hat for at least twenty pictures until we got it just right. He's a definite mama's boy, and always has to be by my side, and runs to great me when I come home at night. He is now about two and a half, I don't know how I ever lived without him! I look forward to when I can add a brother or sister to the mix. Blaike Kohlmeyer ![]() By Radar out of Miss Kandy Dancer |
Dante
is a majestic and courageous little guy who carries himself in a regal
manner as if he believes he is of Royal Blood. He loves activity and yet
he can occupy himself very well off by himself. He is unbelievably athletic
and has a most wonderful sense of humor. He is healthy as a horse and
has an appetite to match. He is fairly calm for a puppy but he likes to
talk a lot (very expressive about what he wants and likes). Of course
you can imagine he is a “Head Turner ". Can't take him anywhere that we don't get stopped and have to spend time talking to everybody about him. Everybody wants to take him home. You were right, Dante is a spittin' image of his daddy Tank. Take care and expect some referrals. Bill, Gina, Johanna, Vicky, Bella and DANTE' |

| Hi
Lynn..... Megan is just the best little traveler. She slept all the way home from the ranch, with stops at Wal-Mart and the grocery along the way. She behaved her little self in the stores and for a few 4+ hour drives while we were in CO. Not a peep out of her until we got to the boarding area at DIA when she started to cry and even howl a little. I covered the Sherpa bag with my sweater and she quieted right down. Must have been too much stimulation. She repeated the noise making while I waited to get into TGI Friday's at the Atlanta airport, but was quieted again by covering the crate. I took her into the ladies room at the airport, put down a tinkle pad, and she used it on cue. Other than nibbling on toes, which is painful at times, she has been perfect. I know she will outgrow it and we will just have to wear toe guards of some sort in the meantime. The time at the cabin was good bonding time as she was lying down with her head on my foot by the time we returned home. She adjusted very easily to being in a completely different environment. Just didn't know what to think of the squirrel that guards the birdseed, and he wasn't too sure about her, either. Our last evening there, she played on the deck while I sipped on wine and watched the birds. She is a great little companion, and loves playing with my two year old granddaughter. We are working on the command "Come" which so far is hit or miss. Thank you so much for making my life even better. ~Update~ Megan is doing well and is about to begin obedience class on Wednesday. The vet's office loves her as she has single handedly changed their minds about herding dogs as pets. She loves to play fetch and is very social with people, children and other dogs. I thank you, Lynn and the Corgis at the ranch for that. She hasn't met anyone she doesn't like. Even the UPS and FedEx delivery men! She learns faster than any dog I have ever known. She is a bit of a nipper still, so I am hoping that will change as she settles down some more. Rim and I have been looking at single family homes in the area so that Megan and our grandchildren will have a fenced yard to play in. For now she must be on a leash at all times when outside. Maybe she will do well enough in school that I can trust her off lead someday. I am hoping to drive her out to CO some time in the future so she can spend time at the cabin with us and maybe visit you in Longmont. I am almost afraid she will like it so much she won't be happy here anymore. Megan has become quite the snuggler when we watch TV at night. She also loves belly rubs. Rim says she is the best dog we have ever owned. Give Kandy a hug for me. We finally got around to registering her with AKC. Her official name is now Honeyfox Oh My Megan. She should be nearly ten months by the time she completes obedience training and by then will be ready for a sport, like flyball, agility, or herding. I want to see what she is best at and let her play. Whatever she chooses, I know she will love it. Betsy Bishop Palm Beach Gardens, Florida |

Our
family just wanted to thank you so very much for allowing us to expand
our family with one of your pups. We are so happy with Tater. She is a
wonderful addition to our family and I just can't put into words how much
she means to us. She is smarter than my 12 year old son
(LOL - just kidding).... I will never get a different breed again, and
we hope to add another pup from you in a year or so. So once again thanks
and take care The Hamills Colorado Springs, Colorado |

Hi
Lynn, Here are the pictures of Scott and me with Glen and Emma I promised. I just wanted to tell you again how much we love these dogs. I researched for 6 MONTHS because there are so many back yard breeders and puppy mills, I wanted to make sure I found a responsible and reputable breeder. I still remember our first trip to your place. I was immediately impressed--all the dogs were obviously happy and healthy and well behaved. It was clear they got a lot of love and attention. I thought it was great that instead of your typical "kennel" of cement floors and chain link that look like a shelter, they have beds and their own little yards and toys and a buddy to hang out with. You were so patient answering all my questions about corgis. I'm so glad we got Glen. Obviously, because less then 6 months later we got Emma! It's true-these guys are addicting, you can't have just one! Glen is your typical corgi; loving attention and a bundle of energy. He'll lick you to death if you let him. Emma is so laid back, the only thing she barks at are the squirrels. She'll happily lounge in your lap for hours. I get so many comments on how cute and great they are- especially Emma. There have been a couple times at the dog park I think people would have snuck her home with them if they could! I always give them your name and number. I love having both a normal haired, and a fluffy corgi. People recognize Glen as a corgi, and then ask me about Emma and are always surprised to learn about the recessive fluffy gene. I could probably go on and on about how great they are with people of all ages, great with the cat, the other dog, and the dogs at the dog park. They love car rides, walks--they really are our buddies. Someday when we have acreage we will be back for more! Thank you so much for everything! Luvies, Kira Michele Miller Fort Collins, Colorado Emma by Tank out of Precious Penny - Glen by Radar ~Update~ Hey Lynn :) Attached you will find a picture of my pack o' Corgis taking a walk, and Glen on the agility field, coming off the Apex, and then sitting next to his little 4" warm up jump. Radar has been such a fabulous addition. His sweet, low-key nature is a great balance to Glen's enthusiasm and excitability. But I can definitely tell they are father and son. They have cute little mannerisms, and the way they are both wonderful with kids of all ages! I don't know what we did before we had him. He is living the dream of a retirement, with regular walks and even occasionally joining the younger two in silly Corgi play. Lots of pampering and love, and the love we get in return is priceless! Emma is continuing to break hearts on our walks, everyone loves her soft fluffy fur, and she is such a cuddle bug. Whenever Scott or I have had a bad day, she is the one who will crawl into our lap and get us smiling again. She has recently discovered the joys of fetch, and will grab the ball out of the other dogs mouth if they get to it first in order to bring it back to me. Glen and I have been exploring the wonderful world of agility, he has taken to it like a duck to water! It is a great outlet for his energy, and a great way to get my butt off the couch and exercising in a way that is FUN! He has such a great desire to please and have a job, and when we pull up to the agility field he is raring to go, watching me for where he gets to go next. I have no doubt that as we continue training we will get into competing and rock it! I really do have a serious addiction to this breed, and I couldn't be happier!!!! Lots of love from Kira and Scott, with Emma, Glen and Radar! ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Hi
Lynn: Thought I would drop you a note and send an updated pictures of Barkly. He is such a joy! A total character in his own right (and he knows it)! Favorite toy - plush lamb toy with a squeaker! He can make it squeak in numerous tones and cadence. Barkly also learned to swim in our pool this summer. At first he wanted nothing to do with the pool. I finally coaxed him onto a raft that is stable enough for him to run back and forth on (barking of course) until he is ready to take the plunge! Now he jumps off the side of the pool, onto the raft and swims around like he owns the pool. We are considering another Corgi. I have been back on your web site and noticed you have some new dogs and are expecting puppies. Please send me information! By far, you have the nicest Corgis we can find. We are constantly stopped whenever we have Barkly out and about - he is such a handsome dog! Thanks again . Darcy & Pete Wekell Phoenix, Arizona |

Hi
Lynn! I just wanted to drop a quick note to let you know how the puppy
(Arrow) is doing. Her name is now Miss Suzy Q, and she is wonderful! She
is full of life, very healthy and smart as a whip. We've already started
some basic training. When we took her to the Vet for the first time, she
asked us how long we'd had the puppy and where we got her. When we told
her we purchased her from a breeder in Colorado, she was absolutely flabbergasted.
She said she had never seen a puppy that healthy come from a breeder.
She was really impressed with her heath and well-being and her socialization.
She ran some basic tests she runs on all new clients, and she couldn't
stop talking about how healthy and beautiful the puppy is. When we walk
into the Vet's office, everyone on staff wants to hold her and love her.
I've given your web site to everyone who expresses an interest in the Pembroke Welsh Corgi breed. I have no idea if any of them will make a purchase, but I sincerely hope so. We're even thinking about getting a playmate for Suzi when we can afford another puppy. Thank-you so much for the care and effort you put into your business. From everything we've heard, you are the exception rather than the rule, and we are really glad we purchased from you. Sincerely, Deborah Brown Yucaipa, California |
