Hello, my name is Emily Day and I am a Cardigan Welsh Corgi addict!
I am nearly 23 years old and own a Border Collie x Something, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and two CWCs.
Maggie is a red and white bitch and is 2 and a half and Rex is an 18 week old tri-colour (red points) dog.
When I was a teenager I decided that I wanted an Alasksan Malamute but after meeting some beautiful Cardis from the Teomakleins kennel at Crufts I changed my mind. Just under a year later, my mother and I were watching an episode of Countryfile on tv and there was an article about endangered British dog breeds. My 21st birthday was a few months away, and, when the Cardis appeared on the screen, I jokingly said to my mother "I want one of those for my birthday."
She didn't tell me I couldn't, so I got on the web and was lucky enough to find a litter that were nearly ready to go. We were approved by the breeder and a few weeks later the last of the litter was my early 21st present to myself.
Maggie (Kilvroch Estella) is a brilliant little dog, we have achieved KC Bronze and Silver and have also done some basic agility and Rally Obedience.
I had been plotting another Cardi for a while but I couldn't decided what colour I wanted. I thought I had decided on a Blue Merle but was offered a red pointed tri colour and was immediately smitten. Little Rex is currently a tiny terror but his training is going well and I expect him to have as many certificates as Maggie soon enough.
I am more than happy to bore anyone to death about Cardis and am very keen to help promote them and any other vunerable native breed. I would be happy to help at any events or meetings near to me (south).
