Questions Regarding Motivation for Adopting and Intentions
Who is this dog for?	Both my husband and I.
Why do you want a Pembroke?	We want to adopt a Pembroke Welsh Corgi because we have done extensive research on the breed and feel that it would be a great fit as a sibling for our current dog. Our current dog is very mild mannered and gentle, and gets easily overwhelmed by large dogs with lots of energy. We have always loved the breed for their characteristics and believe it would be a great fit as far as energy level and mannerisms for our current dog.
Activities planned with Pembroke:	Honestly we focus the majority of our life around our dog, we take him pretty much everywhere we go that he is allowed to go too. We frequent the dog park, local woods for walking and lakes for swimming, doggie play groups, etc. But we are also always down to snuggle on the couch 🙂
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:	We realize that dogs make mistakes, just like humans. If the Pembroke made a mistake we would address it ASAP, ideally while they are in the process so they know what they are being disciplined for, we would then firmly say no and/or snap (one of our preferred training methods) and redirect.
Discipline:	We primarily use positive reinforcement with our dog, but use “time outs” in his crate as necessary. He knows ‘no’ and ‘go home’ in terms of discipline which means go to his crate for a break. We have also trained him to respond to a snap if he is doing something he is not supposed to.
Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:	Our Pembroke would spend most of his or her time with us and Gotham either in our home or out in the community/in nature.
