Northrun Pembroke Welsh Corgis

Cathy D.

Breeder of Pembroke Welsh Corgis

Meet the breeder

I'm Cathy D., the breeder behind Northrun Pembroke Welsh Corgis located in Sullivan, ME. We are a hobby kennel that has been devoted to raising quality Pembroke Welsh Corgis for over thirty years. Our goal is to produce healthy, sound, outgoing Corgis that are also a pleasure to look at. Our love and admiration for this "can-do" breed has grown over the years. Whether in the conformation ring, the performance arena or as the family pet; they are big dogs in a small package — intelligent, loving and loyal. For us, they are the perfect dog.

Q. & A. with Cathy

  • What makes your program special?

    Over the years I’ve been lucky to have bred some fabulous dogs; we’ve had some great successes in both the breed ring and performance. I’m as excited about the dogs that never got into a ring as I am about my Corgis that went to loving forever homes with great families! I’m thrilled that so many of our Corgi families have stayed in touch over the years with many coming back to us for another Corgi or to replace a lost member of their family.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in a kennel on my property.
