I'm Christa T., the breeder behind Cool Creek Corgjs located in South Dakota. Our dogs are with us sun up to sun down during our day to day ranch activities. They are health tested via optimal selection or gensol.
Q. & A. with Christa
Why did you start breeding?
We have been raising and training working border collies for years, however, we have only had one corgi litter from our one female.
What makes your program special?
We only have one female, and plan on only having a couple breeding dogs. They are with us day in and day out & we have a great, great feel on their physical and mental soundness, which is very important to us. Our extensive background with working dogs gives us a great advantage when evaluating older dogs & puppies for the appropriate home or breeding pairing. We health test and stand behind our pups, and we work hard to provide healthy, beautiful, stable dispositioned pups to families!
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black and white, sable and white, sable merle and white, sable, red merle and white, blue merle and white, and black and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
