annwn welsh corgis

Mass was my first homebred international champion, my first Corgi of the Year, my first stud dog, we competed in  obedience and agility and he went everywhere with me, sleeping next to my bed.  He is still sorely missed, he was my "Once in a Lifetime" dog. He sired only 3 litters, from the first we kept Java, now well over 15 years, from the second, Julius, see next page, and from the third N&S Ch Annwn Blackfriar became Finn & Åse Myrvold, kennel Ci Maith's first corgi.                                                                                                 Mass originally belonged to my dear friend Torbjørg, who just had the time to experience him becoming Corgi of the Year and receiving the prize herself before she died prematurely from cancer.  So Mass spent his last 10 years with us, as my faithful shadow and a constant reminder of her. 

Not only a big winner, but a a fantastic brood bitch, whelping big litters very easily, and passing on her quality through generations in kennels all over Scandinavia.  She is the dam of 10 champion an d granddam of innumberable.  We cannot thank Glenda Cook enough for letting us have this wonderful bitch.

Bobby was co owned with my good friend Trude Skogoe, and as Candy, not only a great show dog, but a very good producer who gave his looks and wonderful character to progeny in kennels in many countries.  Not to forget his short bobtail :-)  Thanks a lot to the Berry's in New Zealand for letting us have him

By Keridown Mr Bobkat out of Westglen Will It Be Me, this male didn't belong to me, but has been so important both as an ambassador for the breed and my prefix, and for the connections he established between his owner Helge Solberg and  the Annwn's, which has lead to a fruitful cooperation and champion offspring by him all over the world.
