Legend of the Corgi
According to the Legend, two young children were out tending the family's cattle and found a pair of puppies that they thought were foxes. When they took the puppies home, the parents told them they were gifts from the fairies.
The Fairies used the dogs as "steeds" and to pull their carriages. As the puppies grew, they learned to help their human companions watch over the cattle. This task became the duty of their Corgi descendants for many centuries to come.
Should anyone doubt the truth of the legend, the present-day Welsh Corgi still bears the marks over his shoulders of the little saddle used by his fairy riders.

Dude, Misty Ridge Timers Fyrecracker, was born July 2005; he is a tri with brown points. Dude is the first male that we have kept; he is out of Cookie and Ch. Larklain Cals Timeless Appeal. Misty Ridge has our first Champion. Champion Misty Ridge Timers Fyrecracker finished with a 4 point major at the Coyote Cluster in Tucson Arizona. We did chase that elusive last point through out the end of the 2006 show season, but Carol Swinney took him to his last win with honors! In all, “Dude” finished with a 3 point major, two 4 point majors and one Best of Breed! Look for his ad in the Corgi Annual coming out in late summer 2007. He is now basking on his laurels and telling the “girls” what a cute stud he is! We hope to breed him to BJ's Bound for Glory this fall of RedFoxx corgis in Grand Junction. So for the summer, he gets to be a real dog chasing rabbits and herding goats.
