Corgi dog breed information

The Corgi loves being a member of the family and are generally good with children. They get along well with other dogs...especially if socialized early. This breed is perfect for an owner who likes big dogs but just doesn't have the room (Corgi's are big dogs in small bodies!). Corgi's fare best with active owners who enjoy walking, training and playing. This breed is very intelligent and easily trained. He is a working dog and prey driven. An owner who is firm but kind will have his Corgi herding and rounding up the neighbor children in no time!

The Pembroke Welsh Corgi was developed in Pembrokeshire, Wales, as an all-purpose farm dog that herded cattle and drove geese. They are long, solidly built dogs with short legs. They are 10 to 12 inches in height, weigh 25 to 30 pounds and live approximately 11 to 14 years. The Corgi is an outgoing, alert, and friendly dog. They are hardy, playful and very energetic! The Corgi comes in several colors including...red, sable, fawn (with or without white markings) and tri-color. They have an easy care coat which requires a once a week brushing (more if it is shedding season!).
