About Me:
Have known that I wanted a blue merle cardigan for going on 15 years, but wanted to make sure I had a secure home before I got one. Have wanted to show cardi's in the ring since I first saw Kingsbury's Harry P take the title some years ago. Alas, it was not to be, as the show pup I was going to purchase did not meet breed standards. I decided to own a non show corgi first, and get some practice with AKC competition before getting my show puppy. My ultimate doggy wish is to find a male show pup descendant of Ch Kingsbury's I'm Harry P to take to Westminster (which probably won't happen until after I win the Powerball lottery)... UPDATE = I have my Harry P great-grandson, now to make it all the way to Westminster!!
Welsh Corgi Breeder?
No
About My Corgi(s):
Blue Merle Altered Male - Tartanwyn Frost From Angels Breath "Frosty" born 12/15/2008. According to our breeder, Frosty was an only pup litter. When x-rayed before birth, he stretched from mommy's neck to tail. A c-section had been planned for 2 days after his birth. Unfortunately for mommy, she went into labor with Frosty during a major snow/ice storm, so they were unable to get her to a vet. Our breeder spent a terrible 20 minutes assisting his delivery and they were all relieved when he came out healthy. The breeder said that an angel must have been breathing for him during the long difficult delivery, and that's where he got his name. At birth, Frosty was the size of a 3 week old puppy. And being the only pup, he got all the milk and exploded in size. He is definitely the biggest corgi I have ever seen. Not fat big, just big big. He has the hugest feet ever!! We brought home Frosty on 02/06/2010. He is awesome! Frosty was set to be a show dog, but grew way too fast and ended up at a huge 40 pounds, so we got him as a pet puppy. It was a challege bringing home a 1 yr old instead of a puppy, but he has turned out to be the most awesome dog EVER!!

Brindle Intact Male - Kingsbury's Dragon In Flight "Drake" born 3/29/2013. My little show prospect that we brought home on July 20th. So far he is a sharkface monster lol, but hopefully he will shape up into a beautiful conformation boy!
I have:

    Congratulations on the arrival of Drake, he is a future champion for sure! Bogart would love to play with him, too bad we are not in the same state. Keep posting pictures! How does Frosty like him??
