Puppies in Welsh Shadows

For us, raising a litter is a great responsibility and a very special experience. Our puppies are raised with love,
care and attention from the very first day, with their health, development and future well-being always being our priority.

All our puppies are born from FCI-registered parents and are provided with an official FCI pedigree.
We breed according to the requirements of the Dutch Kennel Club, Raad van Beheer, and the Nederlandse Welsh Corgi Club (NWCC).
The health of our dogs is extremely important to us. Before breeding, our dogs undergo the recommended health examinations,
including testing for hereditary conditions such as PRA, DM, HD and ECVO. In addition, our dogs are DNA tested through Embark.
We use these results as an additional tool in making thoughtful and responsible breeding decisions.

Our puppies are born and raised in our home, right in the heart of our everyday family life. From their first days, they receive plenty of individual attention and gentle care. As they grow, they gradually become familiar with the sounds, routines and experiences of everyday life.
They also meet the other dogs in our family and learn how to interact with them in a safe and natural environment.
We introduce new experiences gradually and according to each puppy's age and development. As they become ready, we begin
introducing them to the world outside our home, always focusing on positive experiences and building confidence

A Home for Life

We do not work with a traditional waiting list.
Instead, we prefer to get to know the people who are interested in one of our puppies and to have an honest conversation about their lifestyle, experience and expectations. The first visit to meet the puppies is possible from around 5 weeks of age. By getting to know you and observing the puppies as they grow, we can help guide you towards the puppy whose character and temperament may be the best match for your family and lifestyle. We are looking for warm, responsible and committed families who understand that welcoming a puppy is a long-term commitment. A Cardigan Welsh Corgi is an intelligent, active and sensitive breed. We prefer homes with children aged 10 years or older,
as we believe this provides the best environment for both a young puppy and the family.
Raising a puppy requires time, patience, consistency and positive training, especially during those important first months of life.
You do not need to know everything from the beginning.
What matters to us is that you are willing to learn, listen and give your puppy the time, love and guidance it deserves.
