Meet the breeder

I'm Kathy G., the breeder behind Kacia Kennels located in Lexington, KY. I work to produce well-rounded dogs with the potential to either be a good show prospect or an excellent family pet. I am a preservation breeder. Temperament and health are always my top priorities. It is imperative that each puppy is placed in the best home possible. If you can no longer keep a dog that you got from me, I will take it back, no matter the age, no questions asked. I care deeply about all of my dogs and can't wait to match you with one!

Q. & A. with Kathy

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My mentors encouraged me to breed and advised me every step of the way. I went to several seminars to educate myself in order to be well prepared and I continue to educate myself for the good of my dog and the puppies they produce.

  • What makes your program special?

    I care deeply about the well-being of my dogs and their puppies. I am always just a phone call or text away, should my puppy buyers have any questions or need my advice. My dogs are my family and I can't wait to welcome you into our community!

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Pembroke Welsh Corgi puppies are sable. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
