Our goal is to raise traditional,
working farm/stockdogs with the drive, intelligence & biddability to help you around the farm, while also striving for
the quality to strut around the show-ring. . . the Can Do It All Corgi. We do
have the occasional puppy who isn't quite as driven/dynamic, who may be an appropriate candidate for someone who lives in
town, given that the puppy will be provided with the exercise & mental stimulation required for everyone's overall well
being. We also may have a started young dog to offer, on occasion. Our dogs are part of the
family & included in all of the daily farm activities, inside & outside. They're
accustomed to all sorts of animals, large & small, furred & feathered, & do well with all of them. Their all-time favorite activity is helping with chores - especially when it involves rounding up &
putting away renegade goats! Our puppies are born &
raised in the house & start going outside for play/potties just as soon as they're able. They get lots of exercise, fresh
air & sunshine that's so important to the development of strong muscles & lung capacity & imperative to a dog's
overall longevity, hardiness & abilities to do their jobs. Once they're mature/agile enough, they start helping us with
the chores, learning how things work with the various livestock species we raise & trying to copy the mature packmembers
in their "helping endeavors". Nothing cuter to see than a teensy Corgi puppy,
pounding along just as fast as his/her little microlegs will let/him her, trying to keep up with the grownups! We don't have a set age that
our puppies are offered to their new families as it varies greatly by litter. It is based upon their development, when
we feel they have attained the mental & emotional maturity & stability we feel is necessary for a puppy to be able
to make the transition to a new home/people/animals/environment/etc. & after they've been thoroughly evaluated to help
us know what type of home/people will be the most appropriate for them. We prefer that our puppies
go to busy, active farm families who are educated about the herding breeds & who also have at least one other canine family
member. If you're interested in adding
a Lost Nation canine to your family, please send an email telling us a little about you & yours, your environment, the
daily routine/work schedule, other animals, & what you're looking for in a dog, to colonel@wcomco.com
While our Corgis are beloved
family members who live in the house with us, they are expected to do the work of actual stockdogs for which the breed was originally intended
. . . No couch-potato/lap-warmer slouches around here! :) It took us several years
to find dogs fulfilling as many of our specifications as possible, to act as our foundation.
Our foundation pair, Poco & Freya, both came from working farms/ranches & are both proven workers whose
offspring are exhibiting a very nice blending of sire’s & dam’s best attributes. We could not be more
pleased with the overall quality & consistency of the puppies they have produced, thus far. We do not have a kennel & we do not breed "for profit". We take our Corgi endeavors very
seriously & along with the sincere intent to create superior quality Corgis, we are equally as serious abt our responsibility of doing everything
we possibly can to try to make the best puppy/human(s) match! That being said all of our puppies are sold on an individual "private treaty" basis, whether
it be for a companion/working/competition home or for a show/breeding home. When inquiring about current or future
availability, please
