"Clancy," is double registered in Australia and the American Kennel Club (AKC). He will be two years old in Jan 2025. I cannot show Clancy in the United States in conformation events due to restrictions imposed by the PWCCA and AKC. Pembrokes must have docked or natural bob-tails to be shown in AKC conformation competition. However, Pembrokes with tails CAN compete in ANY OTHER performance event. And, obviously, Pembrokes with or without tails make wonderful family pets. I imported Clancy strictly for breeding purposes to increase my genetic pool and am looking forward to his babies. He has already produced a litter in Australia which is quite lovely.
My other male Pembroke at home is my show dog and was born here at the Rocky L. He has decided he does not like Clancy at ALL. Clancy could care less, and gets along well with all my other dogs, but has to be kept safe and separate from my other male. There have been a few fights, luckily with no serious damage to either of them, but this cannot continue. This has been creating stress in my life, since I am not a "kennel," and all my dogs run together on my property in harmony. So I have been "collecting" Clancy for "freezing," to be used for future litters, since breeding him was my intention all along. So he will be neutered and now needs a forever home. I have taken Clancy kayaking and on other trips here and there and he is a gentleman. He does not react badly to other dogs or humans. He's friendly, good with children, happy and sweet, although a little shy at first with strangers. For my own piece of mind I would like to find Clancy a home with no other male dogs. (Females, no problem) I really doubt he would have any issue with other males, because I've had him around other male dogs away from home without a problem, but I just would feel 100% (more) confident if he were in a home with no other male dogs.
"Sydney," is double registered in Australia and the American Kennel Club (AKC). She will be two years old in Jan 2025. I cannot show Sydney in the United States in conformation events due to restrictions imposed by the PWCCA and AKC. Pembrokes must have docked or natural bob-tails to be shown in AKC conformation competition. However, Pembrokes with tails CAN compete in ANY OTHER performance event. And, obviously, Pembrokes with or without tails make wonderful family pets. I imported Sydney strictly for breeding purposes and currently have a litter from her which is really lovely. Sydney has been loving being a "house-dog" while she's been raising her puppies. She keeps stealing all the squeaky toys and stashing them behind her puppy box! Then she'll run around and squeak them over and over, asking for you to toss them across the room, and bring them back for more. Before having her puppies, Sydney typically "lives" together with Clancy (above) and they get along great.
I have an AKC Champion female Pembroke who is another one of my show dogs, also born here at the Rocky L. She SERIOUSLY does not tolerate Sydney at ALL. Sydney is really afraid of my older girl and has been hurt a couple times by her (luckily, not seriously). Sydney gets along well with all my other dogs, but has to be kept safe and separate from my one older female. This cannot continue. It has been creating stress in my life, since I am not a "kennel," and all my dogs run together on my property in harmony. So I bred Sydney and got a litter from her, since breeding her was my intention all along. Now she will be spayed and needs a forever home. I took Sydney to Washington State with me to a big show last August, just for the exposure and socialization. She was a hit! We had six dogs with us all together, and there were no issues with any of them (males and females) at all. Sydney was happy and friendly with all the dogs there and with all the exhibitors too. She was a great traveler too, camping overnight with me in my motorhome for a week. She is extremely friendly, playful, sweet and good with children, although a little shy at first with strangers.
