Questions Regarding Motivation for Adopting and Intentions
Who is this dog for?	This is for me, I am a 20 year old woman looking for a adoptable dog. I have been wanting a corgi for my entire life and have read a lot of literature in the breed.
Why do you want a Pembroke?	I want to adopt a corgi due to a love for the breed. I think they’re adorable and incredibly intelligent. I have also done extensive research on this breed and know of their temperament, aggressive hearding nature, and strong will. I have little personal experience with the breed, but I have raised a English setter and several golden retrievers in the past. I hope to use my experience with that in order to properly train and care for my corgi. I personally have a very strong personality so I believe I will be able to handle a corgi.
Activities planned with Pembroke:	I live near Lake Michigan, Spring Lake, and my parents who I often visit live on Lkae Leelanau. I plan to walk the beaches, go swimming(giving the corgi a proper life vest), and playing in the national parks. My main residence has many sidewalks and roads to take long walks on as well.
Aware that Pembrokes are busy, noisy dogs?	Yes
Money for basic care?	Yes

Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this:	I would make sure they saw their mistake, and give some type of punishment such as being loaded up into the kennel or being put outside for a few hours. I would never hit or harm my dog.
Discipline:	I would use showing the dog their mistake, kenneling them when they are not behaving, or putting them outside to be alone for a few hours. Also verbal cues such as “bad dog” or “no chew”.
Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:	They would spend most of their time in the spacious backyard when people are not home, and inside at night. When people are home the dog will be active on walks, park time, and swimming.
