Why Buy A Purebred?Health-tested, temperament-tested purebred dogs are bred for health, longevity, ideal breed temperaments, and most importantly for PREDICTABILITY. Think about your favorite purebred breed. What is a trait you like about it? That trait is a BREED trait; something that has been specifically bred into the breed for many generations so that generation-to-generation is is predictably passed on from parents to puppies. When breeds are crossed, even if they are crossed intentionally, it is all luck of the draw as to what each puppy will inherit from which parent. Learn more about breed genetics and how traits are passed on to understand the advantage of purebreds!

If you want a big dog in a smaller package, if you want a loyal and devoted companion, if you want a fun and happy dog, then the Cardigan Welsh Corgi might be right for you! This underappreciated breed shares many of the same personality traits as its more famous cousin, the Pembroke Welsh Corgi, but unlike the Pembroke, Cardigans more commonly have what dog people refer to as a good "off switch". As both a Pembroke and Cardigan owner, I would recommend Cardigans over Pembrokes for the average family home. They are just as happy to sit on the sofa and watch Netflix with you as they are to go hiking or do dog sports with you!
Why Toy Fox Terriers?Toy Fox Terriers are a delightful little dog. They are a true terrier, but they are more biddable than many terriers. They are not typically dog aggressive in any way. They are just as happy cuddling with you as they are doing dog sports or hiking! They are not usually nuisance barkers, instead being fairly quiet unless there is something truly to bark at. If you want to break into terriers, or you just want a fun little companion, this is a fantastic breed!
