I'm the breeder behind Windmill GSD and Cardigan Welsh Corgis located in Cumby, TX. Follow on FB! We breed for ourselves first, which means we are breeding to keep first pick so we can have our next dog. We have had German Shepherds for 30 year's and bred 20+ GSD Champions. We have been in Cardigans for 8 years, breeding quality Cardigans. Our dogs are family and born in our home.
