Cardigan Bitches

This page depicts some of the bitches which are currently available for us to use
in our breeding program. We feel this gives the best view of where we are
going in our breeding efforts.

Rika

Am Can CH Merrymoon Pluperfect Poprika
(Am Can CH Merrymoon Firestorm ROMS ex Pluperfect Merrymoon Popover)

Rika is a breathtaking sable/white bitch who we feel is often under appreciated.

She has many of the virtues which make our dogs unique in the Cardigan world. Her headpiece is beautiful in its outstanding profile - nearly an equilateral triangle from top of skull to underjaw to nose and a nearly flat backskull. Her stop is ideal, her muzzle smoothly filled and gently tapering, with a scissors bite. She has a superb large, sweet eye with lovely chiselling. Her earset is lovely but we would prefer a slightly larger ear. Her neck is long and gently flows into her topline. She has an incredible depth of brisket and beautiful sweep in underline. Her front has a correct crook molding neatly around her chest; her forefeet are rather forward pointing. Her shoulders are immaculate - they are long, smoothly laid back and they join a wonderful long upper arm which has good return. She has a good topline and tailset, beautiful ribbing, and lovely round bone. She has a beautfiul driving rear and correct sidegait. Her coat is excellent in texture and quality and her coloring is phenomenal. Her temperament is outstanding and she is a classic show girl.

Dayna

Puddleduck Merrymoon Here's Lookin At Ya Kid
(Am Can CH Merrymoon Pluperfect Pathway ex Am CH Puddleduck Merrymoon Sugar Magnolia)

Dayna is a breathtaking bitch drenched in breed type and quality. Our aim is to develop the same level of deep quality that exists in the best Pembrokes and she well illustrates the level of success in this regard. She has an enviable pedigree being by Pathway, BW at CWCCA at 6 1/2 months, out of Magnolia, Megan winner her first time in the ring as a champion. She has a beautifully chiselled headpiece and exquisitely soft expression, her head shape is lovely, well fitted to her body and all quality. Her earset is correct but could use a larger ear. Her neck is long and flows into her topline and she has beautiful shoulder layback and a long upper arm with great return. She is long bodied with long ribbing and a short loin, a lovely topline and tail set and carriage. She has beautiful ribspring and a fantastic brisket. She has wonderful round quality bone and beautiful round feet. She has a glamorous coat and vivid brindling. She has a beautiful front with a neat wrap, strong pasterns and ideal turn-out of forefeet. She moves truly and soundly although she could use a little more drive. She is rather laid back in the ring making her easy for some judges to miss.

Flash

Can CH Merrymoon Pluperfect P's&Q's
(Pluperfect Merrymoon Prince ex Am Can CH Merrymoon Noblestar My Girl)

Flash has beautiful lines with a well fitted headpiece, a gorgeous reaching neck, beautiful length and topline. She has good bone and substance and is all quality. She has a lovely forehand with long upper arm and well laid back shoulder. She moves well in all directions. She represents what Prince can do at stud and we are excited to consider her breeding contributions.

Ariana

Pluperfect Merrymoon Peasegood at 7 months
(Am Can CH Kingsbury's I'm Harry P. ex Pluperfect-Merrymoon Praise)

Ariana is a young bitch but we hope she will soon make a contribution to the forward progression of the breed. She has outstanding make & shape with a supreme topline, super angulation, length, tail carriage, lovely substance and bone. She has a few faults, the most noticeable of which is her long coat (a simple recessive). She is a little strong in head and her dentition is not ideal. She is a lovely mover in all directions. We feel her virtues make her a strong candidate of a producer of note.

Florean

Pluperfect Merrymoon Pomfrey at 13 months
(Am Can CH Kingsbury's I'm Harry P. ex Pluperfect-Merrymoon Praise)

Florean is a litter sister of Ariana. This is a deep bitch with excellent bone, substance and shape and a beautiful sihouette. She has a beautiful headpiece and lovely front. She moves truly both ways. She is also coated but has a beautiful scissors bite. We anticipate Florean will make an important contribution to the forward progress of the breed.
