Meet the breeder

I'm Elizabeth C., the breeder behind Caldwell’s Corgis of Southern California located in Barstow, CA. Our dogs are bred to have top qualities that all families want in their puppies, such as compassion, patience, and love! Our dogs stole our hearts right from the start and we found ourselves wanting to get more involved. Breeding was a natural next step and we haven’t looked back since!

Q. & A. with Elizabeth

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I grew up with my mother breeding German shepherds. As a child, I volunteered to vet, offices and animal shelters. As a teenager, I worked at a local pet store chain and saw the horrors of puppies that were raised in puppy mills, and it pushed me to learn more about ethical practices, and I fell in love with the breed of corgis and here we are!
  • What makes your program special?

    We are a family owned Kennel with my sister and mother assisting and all the breeding so somebody is home with these babies at all times! We go above and beyond creating a positive environment for these babies to grow up and and have plenty of enrichment with sounds, cats, dogs, people of all ages, etc. We take a very serious approach to the welfare of all of our puppies.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Pembroke Welsh Corgi puppies include fawn, red, and sable. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.

    I cannot say enough amazing things about Elizabeth at Caldwell Corgis! From start to finish, the entire experience was absolutely wonderful. She kept me updated every step of the way with pictures, videos, and messages, which meant so much to me as a truck driver constantly on the road. Elizabeth is incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, understanding, and so easy to talk to and work with. You can truly tell how much she cares about her puppies and the families they go to. And my little bundle of joy, Freya (aka Tulip), is absolutely perfect! She is such a happy, slightly sassy little girl with the sweetest personality. At only 9 weeks old, her potty training has already been phenomenal — only three accidents in the first 24 hours, and honestly, those were because I didn’t get her outside quickly enough. She is so well-mannered, loving, and smart already. I honestly could not have asked for a better experience or a more perfect puppy. Thank you so much, Elizabeth, for my precious little girl!

    Working with Elizabeth at Caldwell’s Corgis of Southern California was an absolutely wonderful experience. From our very first conversation, she was responsive, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about her dogs. She took the time to answer all of my questions and made the entire process smooth, transparent, and enjoyable. What made the experience truly special was Elizabeth’s willingness to help me create an unforgettable birthday surprise for my wife. She went above and beyond by coordinating the delivery of our corgi directly to our home, helping make one of the most meaningful and memorable moments our family has ever shared. Seeing my wife’s reaction when she met our new puppy for the first time is a memory we’ll cherish forever. It’s obvious that Elizabeth genuinely cares about the health, happiness, and well-being of every puppy she raises. Our corgi arrived healthy, well-socialized, and full of personality. Since day one, our puppy has brought so much joy, laughter, and love into our home. If you’re looking for a breeder who is professional, caring, trustworthy, and willing to go the extra mile for her clients, I cannot recommend Elizabeth highly enough. Thank you for helping make my wife’s birthday so special and for bringing such an incredible addition into our family. We are beyond grateful! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 – An exceptional experience from start to finish. 🐾❤️🎉

    Liz was amazing. She made the whole process so seamless. We were provided with regular updates, pictures, videos, etc. We are so happy to have our Butters, and couldn't recommend Liz and her family enough if you are looking for a short-legged family member.
