Meet the breeder
I'm Edward C., the breeder behind Pride Paws Corgis: Snout & About located in Matthews, NC. 🏳️🌈 Family-owned, LGBTQIA+-inclusive Corgi breeder. We prioritize genetic testing, responsible breeding, and exceptional care. All puppies keep their natural tails and go home under a signed contract. Our dogs are family first, always! 🐾.
Q. & A. with Edward
Why did you start breeding?
Minnie was meant to be a show and agility dog but she soon realized that she enjoys being loved on more than standing pretty or running like the wind. She has such a gentle and loving personality that we wanted to have the opportunity to keep a piece of her with us and one of her pups will be able to take her place in the show ring.What makes your program special?
Our breeding is intentional, not frequent. With a background in veterinary medicine, we prioritize genetic testing, responsible pairings, and exceptional care for mama and her puppies. All puppies keep their natural tails, and every litter is raised with love in our family home. As an LGBTQIA+-inclusive breeder, we welcome loving families from all walks of life.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
