Type of Dog Wanted
Ages interested in:	1 year – 3 years, 3 years – 5 years	Gender preferred:	Either a Male or a Female	Color preferred:	Any color	Activity level:	Couch Potato, Outgoing, Quiet, Playful, Energetic, Very Active
Other preferences:	We just lost our Corgi this weekend. He was 14 1/2 years old. He died on Sunday. Therefore, this is why I chose the age category that I did. We would like an adult Corgi anywhere between 1 and 5 years old. Not up to taking care of a senior Corgi for right now. Coco (was his name) was such a good boy. He was from a shelter 12 years ago. Coco was a Corgi/Retriever mix or Corgi/ Long Haired Dachshund. His vets could not agree on which combo. He was so well behaved, that in his honor we would like to adopt another Corgi that needs a home. We miss him so much. But were are ready to give another Corgi and home. Coco would have wanted that. Thank you.

Questions Regarding Motivation for Adopting and Intentions
Who is this dog for?	He or she would be for my husband and I. Also, for my 24 year old daughter who is home on weekends from college.
Why do you want a Pembroke?	As I explained on the previous page, our Corgi mix just passed away. We are ready to give another Corgi a loving home. I have never had a corgi before him, but he was so well behaved and kind. In his honor, we would love to give a new corgi a home. Yes, I know corgis are stubborn sometimes. They are very protective, voice their opinion often, active but very kind. I did a lot of research on Corgis before we got our Corgi mix 12 years ago (that just passed away). And yes, he could be a firecracker at times.
Activities planned with Pembroke:	We would take he or she to the park, the dog park, on walks and play with them in our big back yard. Play with toys also and car rides. What ever they required.
Aware that Pembrokes are busy, noisy dogs?	Yes
Money for basic care?	Yes
Money for unforeseen medical expenses?	Yes
Willing to house train?	Yes Willing to do formal training? Yes
Do you have a veterinarian?	Yes
Vet contact info:
Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this:	First I would tell him or her that it was okay, things happen. I would do this as long as he or she did not do the mistake purposely For example, our senior Corgi, before he died, accidentally went to the bathroom in the house (not his fault, he never does this). We petted him and told him it was okay. Then we cleaned it up (husband and I). We are pet lovers.
Discipline:	A firm no, time out and take his toys away for awhile. Absolutely no yelling or hitting.
Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:	With Diane. I am home weekdays and week nights. I work weekends. Oscar, husband, has 9 to 5 job and is home every night. He is home on weekends also. So, there would never be a time where a Corgi would be left for a long time. He or she could be outside in the fenced yard (when the weather is warm enough), on the deck, in the house, on the couch. Where ever this dog felt the most comfortable. A crate if that is where he or she is comfortable. I have had dogs since I was 9 years old. I love them.

House dog or outside dog?	House dog
People at home during the day?	Yes, Diane is home during the day.
Where would dog eat?	In the kitchen, with a water bowl and a food bowl.
Where would dog sleep:	In an area where he or she feels safe. That is most important. Weather it be a kennel, in our bedroom, etc.
Play & exercise:	Very large yard to play in, Taking him or her on walks, to the dog park (we get annual passes) to the regular park, car rides, etc. My husband is an early riser. So he was with our previous dog at the dog park by 8am on the weekends. I would take him there at different times on other days.

Fenced yard?	Yes, I have a fenced in yard.
