Meet the breeder

I'm Courtney F., the breeder behind Short & Stout located in Oswego, NY. Health and temperament are of key importance for us. All of our dogs have had their tails docked, come microchipped & fully vetted including all first vaccinations and dewormings. Our litter has been registered with AKC. Well socialized.

Q. & A. with Courtney

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Our love for the breed began with our sweet Nala girl back in 2018. As soon as we saw her, we had to have her. In the fall of 2021 it happened again and we found our amazing boy Hank. We have been researching the breed ever since and have fallen deeper and deeper in love. We hope to continue to improve the breed so future generations are most prime offspring.
  • What makes your program special?

    We are very small scale breeders who pride ourselves in giving our dogs the upmost amazing care. From nutrition, to enrichment, to overall health and care, our dogs truly are a huge part of our family and we wouldn't change it for the world.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Courtney was incredibly responsive throughout the entire adoption process and you can tell she really cares for the health and happiness of the puppies. We're incredibly glad that we found her through Gooddog and would recommend anyone looking for a new corgi family member to do so through Short & Stout.

    What more could I say about Courtney at Short & Stout! Our experience with her could not have been more positive. As future first time puppy owners, my girlfriend and I were having trouble getting through to most breeders around us. Courtney was quick to respond to our application, and from the day we were chosen to be one of her pups’ future homes we went on to exchange hundreds of messages in preparation for drop off day. Courtney consistently provided us with tips on our future pups’ preferences, precious photos to update us on his growth, and made sure our process was as smooth and transparent as possible. At drop off, we were provided with all of his records to date and AKC registration. Finally, shout out to Good Dog as well for giving us the platform to find such a wonderful breeder and the perfect addition to our family! I’d gladly recommend working with Short & Stout to anyone looking for an experience like ours. Here are some pictures of our new best friend, Ernie!

    I’ve interacted with several breeders and this is the one I chose. Good rate, close to home and responds almost instantly. I would ask several questions and have answers within minutes. I was able to do a video visit with her and the puppy before purchase, which was very comforting. Even after I put the deposit down, she would send me random photos of the puppy through out the day. We are both a couple hours away from each other and we both met half way. The woman and her husband were both great, took time & explained all the paper work that was given to me. I brought the puppy to the vet within 72 hours, sent her the confirmation for that and she updated the puppies microchip to my information within minutes. The pup has been with me for about 5 days now and I send her photos & keep her updated on how well she’s doing. These are great breeders and I would honestly recommend them to anyone. Thank you so much for my new little one!

    Working with Courtney was great. She’s amazing at communication, always so fast to answer and so helpful. Even now that I have the puppy, if I have a question, she’s still available to offer answers, advice, and support. This puppy is so well-behaved and intelligent, so well-bred. He’s a delight. I fully recommend this experience.

    Working with Courtney at Short & Stout was a great experience all the way through. I reached out to a few different breeders and ultimately went with Courtney and I could not be happier! I was at first thrilled to find a breeder local to me, but our positive experience went so far above and beyond just location. Courtney was prompt with responses and very easy to work with. After talking and deciding we would be a good match for one of their female puppies, Courtney stayed in regular contact with me and sent frequent pics and updates all along the way. I appreciate how thorough Courtney was with vet appointments for the puppies and ensuring everyone was in tip-top health before coming home. When we brought our girl Scout home at 10 weeks old, she was a happy, healthy and very well tempered pup. I appreciate the standard of breeding and rearing that Short & Stout held themselves to, and would recommend them to anyone looking for their new best friend. Scout is now 3 months old and the perfect addition to our family, I truly can’t say enough good things about our experience!
