I'm Dezerae H., the breeder behind Havaheart Corgis located in Prophetstown, IL. We raise family-oriented and hardworking dogs. Our puppies go on to be great family pets and working companions. We care so much about each of our dogs and make sure to find our puppies the perfect families and individuals with lifestyles that will complement this amazing breed.
Q. & A. with Dezerae
What makes your program special?
I am a functional breeder that also keeps tails and front dew claws as I am morally opposed to docking. I strive for healthy puppies with the "big dogs on short legs" look but I also try to avoid the deeper chests seen in a lot of pembrokes today that limit their athletic ability. These dogs should be physically capable of herding, jumping, hiking, etc. Without issue just as their ancestors were.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include red, white and red, and black and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
