Looking for reputable breeder. In Vegas, willing to travel 700 miles.

I'm moving to Vegas in December when I get married, and we are looking to add another Corgi to our pack of two dogs. It took me about seven months to find a breeder I really liked when I got Grissom, and the woman stopped breeding because she no longer had a wait list, and didn't want to bring unwanted puppies into the world. Great move on her part, disappointing to me, as I had planned on going back to her each time.
Anyway, I'm willing to travel about 700 miles (12 hours) outside of Vegas to check a place out I just don't even know where to start. I'm not familur with the area at all. When I got Grissom I was living in Denver and very much so active in the dog community and had a lot of references to go by. In Vegas I've got nothing. :'(

Are you willing to travel for Phoenix? I know of an amazing breeder. I live in Provo, and I am adopting from a woman named Micki in Glendale, AZ.
I am, in fact!
I'm actually living in Orem. right now, so we're about 15 minutes apart!!!
I'll look into that breeder. Let me know about your experience with her.
Here's her website: http://members.cox.net/shannara.kennels/index.htm

She's tremendously professional. I haven't gotten the pup yet--two more weeks! Eeeeee. But I've met her sires and dams, and they're real beauties. She has a great variety--more males and females than she has listed on the website, and she takes AMAZING care of all of her dogs. She has one female still for sale from this litter, so if you're interested in adopting... within the next two-three weeks, you could get one now! But if not, she'll be breeding again in the fall. She has all of her boys and girls screened for genetic problems, and she has a great variety of colors. All of her corgis are full of energy and fun! I think you'll love her and her babies.
I'm impressed by her website. We're looking for a puppy avaliable at the very tail end of December, or early to mid January. We're willing to wait longer if the right breeder comes along that we just have to go with and whatnot, but not earlier. We feel it would be in the pup's best interest to get it after all the commotion of the wedding and our move from Orem, UT to Henderson, NV. I'd hate to get the little sweetheart and have o kennel her for the whole first week, ya know?
How much do her pups cost, out of curiosity? Not that the cost is an issue, we're willing to dish out for a quality dog, it's our wedding gift to ourselves.
I have an absolutely AMAZING breeder, she is in Bakersfield, Ca. She has champion blood lines and is great with her dogs and puppies. Her website is listed on my page., but to save time, Ill leave it here.
www.pasocreekpuppies.com

She has pictures and testmonies and all kinds of goodies on her website. Check it out and see if you see something you like.
I believe she has a dame that is expecting.
Woops... I typo'd. Its www.posocreekpuppies.com
How much does she charge for her pups?
I looked at her website. Her puppies are beautiful, but she doesn't mention any genetic testing or guarantees on her website. Usually breeders post their contracts to read, this one does not.
If you're willing to travel to Oakland and then rent a car and drive about an hour (which we did for Lucy) I highly recommend Tim Mathiesen, Nebriowa Corgis. He's a wonderful breeder, and is one of the three authors of the Welsh Corgi Standard. He's done so much over the years to improve not just the beauty, and soundness of the breed, but also the temperament. I don't believe that he has a website and I don't know if he has any litter now, but here's the info:

Mathiesen Tim (707) 794-0278

I don't know if you found another dog or not yet :) it has been a while since you posted this. Someone already posted this breeder, www.posocreekpuppies.com. Terrific breeder and she told me she would be willing to travel to vegas. We live in Arizona and she lives in California, and she actually asked how far away Vegas was from us and that she would be willing to travel there if it was any closer. It ended up being the same distance to her house so we didn't do that.
I can't completely speak on her behalf, on whether she would still be willing to do this. But at the time she was willing to find a halfway point between our residences.
