Marilyn Starkey/Big Cedar Puppies

Big Cedar Puppies, run by Marilyn Starkey in Mount Pleasant, Iowa, raises Pembroke Welsh corgi and Shih tzu puppies on a small farm in southeastern Iowa, roughly an hour south of Iowa City. The operation is situated on a hillside property overlooking a wooded valley, giving dogs and puppies a lush, natural setting from their earliest weeks.

Marilyn has been raising both breeds since the early 1990s, and her corgis are AKC registered. Puppies from both breeds are handled with care from birth and grow up in an environment that includes regular human contact, with family and friends stopping by to help socialize young dogs before they go to their new homes.

Those looking for Pembroke Welsh corgi puppies in Iowa will find that Big Cedar Puppies keeps both breeds on the same small family farm, where individual attention is central to how each litter is raised. Shih tzu are also bred here alongside the corgis, rounding out a program focused on two distinct but well-established companion breeds.
