HUMBLE BEGINNINGS
I have had dogs all my life and grew up with them. I was always bringing something home, telling my parents "it followed me home" I grew up with a red and white parti-color cocker spaniel, later a toy poodle, a German Shepherd and numerous others. I first came to know our wonderful breed, the Pembroke Welsh Corgi in 1975 during my horse showing days. I was showing with friends, the Tanis family of Ideal Farms where I lived in Sussex County, N.J. I fell in love with one of their bitches and visa versa. We became inseparable and they gave her to me as a gift. She was a red and white, Ideal Buffy, born in 1971. I never went any- where without her, and she traveled to all the horse shows with me. Little did I then know that one corgi would not be enough.

I moved to Florida in 1980 to be near my parents who were getting up there in years. Shortly thereafter I lost my beloved Buffy. I was at a horse show when my parents appeared with a sable female corgi as a surprise. They had unbeknown to me, met Alice Hively and purchased "Fayaway Honey Fox". She produced my first Champion and I also finished another dog from that litter, her first and only litter. I am one of the original members of the Sunshine Pembroke Welsh Corgi Club and former long time secretary, board member and was show chairman. I am still a member of Sunshine PWCC and also member of PWCCA, Welsh Corgi League and Southeast PWCC. The corgis all live in my home with me. I don't believe in kennels and I love having all the dogs loose in the house when I am home (which is most of the time). The dogs have a bedroom when I am out and I now live in Ocala with a nice big fenced in yard where the dogs have lots of room to run and play and stay in condition. |
