Hey folks

I'm new to MyCorgi.com. In fact, I'm new to dogs all together- I'm looking to get my first dog ever and I've decided, after a lot of research and thinking, that I want a Pembroke Welsh Corgi. I've been scouring the internet and have thus far failed to find a breeder in the Houston area. I've seen a few north of Dallas online, but I have no way of knowing whether they are good, bad, etc. What I really need is a good recommendation along with maybe some help knowing which breeder to pick, especially if all I have is a website. Obviously, I'd like to go visit every one of these folks but I can't really tolerate a 9-10 hour drive round trip just to check things out and come home empty handed. Any advice at all, actually, would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Josh

Welcome Josh, you may want to ask the owners personally here in the Texas group. I'm sure you're get a better response there.
Peggy,

Thanks for the advice. I actually already e-mailed the lady from the Houston Pembrokes site a couple weeks ago and just haven't heard back yet. Interestingly enough she lives in my neighborhood based on the address she put on the site!

Absolutely, I'm willing to wait- in fact I don't have an intention to buy right away anyhow. I'm in no rush and plan to adopt some time within the next 3-6 months ideally unless the planets align to make it sooner. I definitely want to find a reputable breeder who tests for health of the parents as well as the standards and temperament- that's the whole reason I'm asking here. I'm just saying I don't want to make a trip north of Dallas for no reason. Obviously before I drove up I'd communicate with the breeder and find if or when they expect to have puppies, when it would be a good idea to visit, all that business.

There's actually a show coming up in late February according to the Houston Pembrokes site and I am thinking about attending that to do the kind of networking you mentioned earlier. Thanks for the idea!

-Josh
