Why do you want a Pembroke?	I have never owned a corgi of my own before, but I have a close friend who has one and I just adore how much personality they have! They seem to be such a darling breed and I would love to own one of my own someday. I have done a great amount of research on the breed and realize that every dog is different, but their generally fun, playful, and loving temperaments are exactly what I’m looking for in a dog.
Activities planned with Pembroke:	I love taking my current dog for walks, but as he grows older he’s not enjoying them as much anymore, As such, I would love to have a dog who can go for walks, play fetch with me, and just cuddle up after a long day,

Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this:	I believe in strictly positive reinforcement training for dogs. If my dog makes a mistake, I tend to quickly redirect them into doing what is right. For example, during house training, if I see my dog committing the act of doing their business indoors, I will quickly take them outside instead and give them a reward every time they do it outside, Or if the dog was chewing on furniture, a quick fix would be to redirect its attention to a toy. If they make a mistake while I am not around, I will simply ignore it and fix it as dogs do not understand delayed punishment at all.
Discipline:	I do not use any kind of punishment with my dogs. Positive reinforcement and distractions from the problem only,
