Is it free to advertise here?

Yes. A breeder profile and your litter and stud dog adverts are free. Premium profiles, featured placement and sponsored articles are optional paid extras; see pricing.

Do I need a licence to advertise puppies?

In England you need a dog breeding licence from your council if you breed three or more litters in 12 months or breed and sell dogs as a business, and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own schemes. Licensed breeders show their licence number and issuing council on every advert. Puppies must be at least eight weeks old before they go to new homes.

Is my listing already here?

We add licensed breeders from councils' public registers. Search for your kennel name; if it is listed you can claim it and edit everything.

Buying a Pembroke Welsh Corgi puppy

Searching for Pembroke Welsh Corgi puppies for sale? The Welsh Corgi League says carefully bred litters are not plentiful and advises buyers to keep an open mind about colour and sex rather than hold out for one exact puppy. The League's puppy co-ordinator is the first point of contact for buyers and can take your details for future litters from members. Pembrokes come in red, sable, fawn, and black and tan, usually with white markings, and since the docking ban they keep their tails, although some puppies are born with a natural bobtail. Before paying anything, ask for the parents' hip scores, meet the puppies with their mother, and check the RKC registration and any endorsements. This is a sturdy herding dog rather than a lapdog, so plan for daily walks and training. Treat listings here as a starting point and check every document yourself.

Health tests to ask about

The RKC's pre-breeding recommendation for the Pembroke is hip scoring under the BVA/KC Hip Dysplasia Scheme, listed at Best Practice level. Dogs must be at least a year old and permanently identified, by microchip or tattoo, to be scored. The RKC does not offer a breed-specific DNA testing package for the Pembroke, though individual DNA tests can be ordered.

The Welsh Corgi League says hip scoring is not yet mandatory but should be treated as best practice for all breeding stock, and stresses that the X-rays need correct positioning for a Corgi's build. The League runs an annual health survey of members' dogs, and notes that breeders overseas routinely use further tests, including DNA tests for degenerative myelopathy (DM), von Willebrand disease type 1 and exercise-induced collapse, alongside eye, elbow and heart checks. These are not on the RKC's list for the breed, but a breeder may choose to use them. The Pembroke is in Breed Watch Category 1, with no breed-specific points of concern for show judges.

  • BVA/KC Hip Dysplasia Scheme (RKC Best Practice)
  • No breed-specific RKC DNA testing package; individual DNA tests available
  • DNA tests for degenerative myelopathy, von Willebrand disease type 1 and exercise-induced collapse (used by some breeders, reported by the Welsh Corgi League; not listed by the RKC)
  • Genetic diversity: check the litter's inbreeding coefficient with the RKC calculator (general RKC advice: at or below the breed average)
  • Breed Watch: Category 1
