Other preferences:
 As it would be an emotional support animal, I am looking for a dog that's quite cuddly and affectionate, probably more on the laid back side. I will, however, obviously support the dog as well with all of its exercise needs. I can likely spend at least an hour each day exercising and playing with the dog.

Who is this dog for?

 Just me. I live very close to family who the dog would likely be around a lot, but ultimately just for me. I am an experienced dog owner, though I've never owned a Corgi before. I'm looking to adopt a dog who would act as an emotional support animal.

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 I have always loved how cute they are, but I didn't know much more about them. However, since I've been researching them more, I think it would be a pretty good match. They are just about the size I'm looking for, and I learned that you can build ramps over your stairs to make them more comfortable. I am willing and capable to accommodate those needs. I also learned in my research on emotional support animals that they are a popular breed for that because of their affectionate nature. I find their herding behavior very cute, and would love to have a dog friend that followed me all around the house. I also learned that they're very smart, so I could have lots of training possibilities. Just for fun, though, and just to stimulate them mentally. I'm definitely not interested in training for a competitive environment.

Activities planned with Pembroke:
 I live in the heart of downtown Traverse City, where there are lots of parks, dog parks, and sidewalks. I would take the dog on walks and to parks to play. I also have a small fenced in yard that the dog could play freely in. I would also love to just chill inside with my dog for cuddle time. The dog would be more than welcome to sleep on my bed with me, or a doggy bed if they're more comfortable there. My school housing has a very large backyard that leads into a forest. It's not near any roads and has lots of running around space (it is not fenced in, though).

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:
 {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 would immediately ensure that the dog knows that that particular behavior is bad by firmly saying "no", and then reinforce the good behavior by rewarding him after correcting the mistake.

Discipline:
 Never yelling, just firm "no"s, and treats to reinforce good behavior.

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 Wherever they're most comfortable in my home. They do need to be crate trained for my school housing, so they would be in there while I'm not home. But of course they're free to roam while I'm home, which is most of the time. I can also have the crate in my primary address with the crate door open so they're free to go and please, if they like to relax or sleep in there.

 Yes, I'm usually home. For both my classes and my job, I'm never gone for more than 4 hours at a time.

Where would dog eat?

Where would dog sleep:

 Of course, I wouldn't add another animal to the family if my current animal or the future animal wouldn't be happy with the other.
