Other preferences:
 I have an 8 year old Corgi female who is fairly vocal, so I know that they can be. She also loves herding the 3 cats when on the first floor. I prefer a friend for her that doesn't play roughly, because she had a spinal Injury 3 years ago, is fully functioning and well healed and receives regular chiropractic care. Too rough could reinjure her or the other Corgi.

Who is this dog for?

 Myself

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 I have a Corgi. She's a sweetheart, funny, very smart, at times stubborn, she loves everyone, including her vet, vet techs, and total strangers. She thinks everyone loves her too and can't understand why everyone doesn't love her back. She loves any food and any treat, not picky. She'll fall over in a heartbeat for a belly rub from anyone and anywhere if they pet her. She's a complete character and I have fallen in love with the breed. I have always had dogs from when I was 14 until present at 69. Before 61, I had all big dogs- mostly labs and Rotties. But when I became older I thought a smaller breed would be better for me. Since I am of mostly Celtic origin, I took a look at their breeds and I wasn't looking for a lap dog. Other than the massive amounts of hair that this 22 lb. Girl makes, I just fell in love with the Corgi. She, well actually all of them, make me laugh and smile all the time.

Activities planned with Pembroke:
 Training, going for short, but a few walks, in the summer playing in a wading pool, and winter in the snow, and tossing a ball. We also play tug until mine decides it's time to play keep-away!

Aware that Pembrokes are busy, noisy dogs?
 Yes

Money for basic care?

 Yes

Money for unforeseen medical expenses?
 Yes

Willing to house train?

Do you have a veterinarian?

 Yes

Vet contact info:
 {If yes, please provide contact information including the vet’s name, clinic name, street address, city, state, zip, and phone. Also include the website if there is one.:52}

Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this: 		I always use just my voice. For example, if the dog chews on something it shouldn't, I say " no " in a stern voice and then hand it an appropriate chew. It requires time, patience, observation, persistence, and consistency; it's just like raising children.

Discipline:
 I use a combination of positive reinforcement with treats and negative reinforcement with my disapproving tone. I realize that in the beginning of being together, the dog and I need to learn about each other, learn to trust each. So you need to understand that the dog might be regressing out of fear, confusion about what the heck is going on in its life, and be soft, kind, reassuring and safe.

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 In the house with me and Moxie, or outside in the yard or barn with me.

House dog or outside dog?

 House dog

 Yes, me

Where would dog eat?
 In the kitchen separated from the other.

Where would dog sleep:
 On the 1st floor in a crate near where Moxie sleeps in her crate ( which began 3 years ago when she hurt her back). Since then she hasn't been allowed to go up and down the stairs by me, and I can no longer carry her up and down. Sleeping near Moxie, I feel they can bond better in a " type of pack".

 I live on a horse farm and when I feel comfortable that the Corgi will listen to me and not run off or get lost, there will be plenty of room for the Corgi to run and play.
