Ebonwald Cardigans

Conformation, Performance, Herding

My name is Garrett Ramsay and I live near Perham, MN. I live on the 320 acre farm I grew up on, and its been in my family since 1892. It is a working farm with cattle, sheep, poultry and of course the herding Cardigans!  I went to college at North Dakota State University (GO BISON!) and graduated with a degree in Animal Science, option in Business & Production, emphasizing in Genetics and Nutrition. I was on the NDSU Dairy Judging team and a member of their Saddle and Sirloin club.

These Cardigans crept into my heart and are here to stay. They are smart, willing, agile, humorous and full of love and devotion. If the human race could only learn from them.

I have been competitive in the conformation ring as well as performance rings such as rally, obedience and agility. I have gotten the titles on the dogs mostly myself (with a little help along the way) and look forward to many years in the future with my dogs at my side, enjoying these events together.

Please remember when searching for a dog, to go through members of the CWCCA website, ask questions, visit the potential breeder's home, and find out if they test for hips and eyes. Ask for a contract of some sort, health guarantees, and if possible, see the parents and/or siblings of the dog in 'question'. It is important to purchase your pet or show dog from responisible breeders. You may pay more in the end for them, but it is very much worth the extra money to know you have a sound and healthy dog!

The more and more people that are aware of getting animals from breeders who test and have health guarantees, the better off the breed is as a whole! Its worth it!

We are striving for healthy, happy dogs with proper structure and temperament!
