Meet the breeder
I'm Sage B., the breeder behind Mountain Paws Cardigan Welsh Corgis located in Granite Falls, WA. At Mountain Paws Cardigans, our breeding program is built on a foundation of health, structure, and temperament. We believe that sound temperament is just as important as physical excellence & our goal is to raise dogs who are not only correct in structure, but also confident, adaptable, and loving.
Q. & A. with Sage
Why did you start breeding?
Being in the dog training world I see the worst of the worst, and I noticed a distinct lack of breeders who bred for true functionality in every area. Some bred for conformation or flashy colors but ignored health--others bred for health but ignored temperament. I don't think that families should need to sacrifice health, or temperament, OR looks in their search for their perfect pet.What makes your program special?
My focus on true functionality. A truly wellbred dog is able to do it all, and I take my responsibility seriously to produce the best that I can. With family companions in mind, I focus on adaptable and resilient puppies. Our puppies are raised in-house, with ENS/Puppy Culture, and exposed to livestock, children, and a number of stimuli to help them grow to become confident, secure, and social.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include brindle and white and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

“I pride myself in going to great lengths to ensure every family is paired with the perfect pup. Puppies are assessed using multiple methods and tools at varying stages, and I use this information alongside the wants of the families to decided which puppy pairs best with which family. This does mean families should have a level of flexibility regarding gender or coat color. I will do my best to meet your wants but ultimately temperament matters most! ”
