Fernbriar Cardigans actually began with a girl & her dog - Mackenzie,
who wanted to show AKC Jr. Showmanship & Agility, & Handsome, our
first Cardigan.
Dogs have always been a part of our life. Diana grew up on a dairy farm
SE of Rochester, where her family raised & showed registered
Holsteins in both 4-H & MN Holstein Association shows. She also
participated in the 4-H dog project, training the family's purebred Rough
Collies for obedience competition.
In 2003, Mackenzie's love of dogs expressed itself as a desire to try her
hand at competitive dog sports, like agility & Jr. Showmanship.
However, all of the current family dogs were mix-breed rescues. We
started by researching which breed would best suit our family - Diana's
experience with the herding breeds, along with the desire for a dog
known for it's excellent temperament & the need for a size of dog
suitable for Mac's size, led us in the direction of the Cardigan. We were
not disappointed with our choice - the Cardigan is a combination of
athlete, companion, & clown who loves its people & truly wants to be a
part of the family.

We take our responsibility to this breed very seriously. Our dogs are all
members of the family - the resident Cardigans can be found most nights
sleeping on Mac's bed.
When we do breed, our goal is to achieve dogs of quality conformation with
excellent temperament & health.
