In 2008 we were blessed by the arrival of CH Letalone Creek Knight Train owned by Carrie Harris of Dalarno Corgis. Trucker touched the heart of every person he made contact with and when he returned to Dalarno, well I thought I would never recover.  Trucker is truely a heart dog spending many a day and night never leaving my side during my battle with kidney failure.  He did not leave Whimsy without leaving me a very special gift in his image running about the yard. Thank you!

Enjoy meeting our newest “hopefuls” - Tushie, Spankz and Gabbi. Our young Pems are waiting for their opportunity to be introduced to the conformation ring. Gabbi, co-bred and co-owned with our sister kennel Rhoswen Cardigans is already major pointed, has earned two Group 4 (BBE) wins, and earned her first pre-trial herding class leg at the 2009 Cardigan Nationals in April.

A Pembroke Legend

Was a present from the wee folk,

  For their father told a legend.

  How the fairies kept some dwarf dogs.

  Called them Corgis - Fairy heelers;

  Made them work the fairy cattle.

  Made them pull the fiary coaches,

  Made them steeds for fairy riders,

  Made them fairy children’s playmates;

  Kept them hidden in the mountains,

  Kept them in the mountain’s shadow.

  Lest the eye of mortal see one.

Now the Corgis grew and prospered,

  And the fairies’ life was in them,

  In the lightness of their movement,

  In the quickness of their turning,

  In their badness and their goodness.

  And they learnt to work for mortals,

  Learnt to love their mortal masters,

  Learnt to work their master’s cattle,

  Learnt to play with mortal children.

Now in every vale and hamlet,

  In the valleys and the mountains,

  From the little town of Tenby,

  By the Port of Milford Haven,

  To St. David’s Head and Fishguard,

  In the Valley of the Cleddau,

  On the mountains of Preselly,

  Lives the Pembrokeshire Welsh Corgi,

  Lives the Corgi with his master.

Should you doubt this ancient story,

  Laugh and scoff and call it nonsense,

  Look and see the saddle markings

  Where the fairy warriors rode them.

  (As they ride them still at midnight,

  On Midsummer’s Eve at midnight,

  When we mortals all are sleeping.)
