<p>I got my Belle from her..Aslan was Belle's dad and he passed a year after we moved to Nevada from alaska...Dr Krueger told Sue Belle would have got far in the show ring but things happened and I never got to show Belle. Belle went to the bridge last year and we are going to see if Sue has a couple of puppies for us to come look at...Nice to see someone else got a dog from her...Carolyn Medlock </p>

<p>If Tracker is an example her corgis ARE big. He's 33 lbs and the vet swears he isn't overweight.</p>
<p>The breed standard calls for 30 lbs max.</p>
<p>If her line was outside breed standards it might explain why yours looked small to her and might even make her feel defensive of hers.</p>
<p>All that aside, Tracker is the best of the three corgis I've owned and is a beautiful and well formed corgi.</p>

<p>Sue is a nice lady and has been breeding corgis for awhile now. She used to work with Dr Charles Krueger who was a vet up in Des Moines WA and a national corgi judge. My last girl came from Dr Krueger. When she passed this year I got in touch with Sue and was able to pick up a young male that she had been giving a home as a rescue. He is laying quietly at my feet as I type. I saw some of her dogs and they were very nice. Pretty new pups, too. Drop me a line if you need any more…</p>

<p>If she was just saying she doesn't charge extra for a show pup, that is pretty standard from a good breeder. $850 is a reasonable price IMO. If you are interested in showing I would make sure you express that interest very early on, because it's really quite rare for a breeder to sell a dog as a pet and then later give the owner full registration. Most breeders do not want to take the risk of having someone take off with their dog and use her to pump out puppies. Sad but it…</p>

<p>I don't know anyone on the west coast. I did look her up and she seems to show a bit. Many breeders don't charge different prices for show- or pet-quality. I have heard, rarely, of someone taking home a pet that, before they get neutered, they have the breeder look at one last time to see if they might be show quality. Again, rarely but it happens.

<p>It's good that she stays involved with her pups. I'd also want to know where the pups live, what sort of health-checks are done on the parents, what shots they get, what she does to socialize, and what she breeds for (show, performance, etc). There is no one right or wrong answer to most of those questions but HOW they answer is important; breeders should have a reason for doing what they do. For instance, given the research we have now, I'd be happy with a breeder who said "I send my pups out with one set of shots at 8 weeks old" or "my pups don't leave til 10 weeks and have had two sets of shots" but I would want the breeder to be able to say why she made that choice. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>She should be able to talk at length about her breeding program, what her dogs are like, and what she's breeding for. Again, there isn't one right answer but there should be some goal. "It's important that my dogs be family dogs and I know that a kid can go up to mine and hug them around the neck" is a good answer. But so is "I send a lot of my dogs to agility homes and I'm really breeding for drive and biddability. It's important to me that my puppy buyers are experienced dog owners because some of these high-drive dogs can be a little funny if you don't know how to train consistently." One of those answers is better for YOU and your home and what you want in a dog, but both are very acceptable breeding programs.</p>
<p><br/>The list goes on. Decide what you want, strike up a conversation with the breeder and take it from there. I found one breeder that sounded really good but one of her pups would not have been good for my home because of various things she mentioned. Doesn't make her a bad breeder, just not the breeder I wanted a pup from.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Best of luck! The questions should flow as a natural part of the conversation, rather than sound like you're grilling her. :-)</p> Kymii,

<p>Kymii,</p>
<p>I got Tracker when he was six months old and I suspect he was a disappointment as he had an undescended testicle. I wanted a fixed pet so it made no difference to me. It's been six years, the dog is healthy as a horse (?), an energetic and gentle, loving dog. He came with enough training that his will to cooperate has satisfactorily fleshed out the rest of it to make a dog who is a wonderful companion.</p>
