Who is this dog for?

 Rick, Brenda and Zuzu.

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 We love Zuzu. She is characterful, funny, clever, and cute. She has her distinct vocalizations.

Simba was more laid-back. He loved walking/running all over our property. He was a cuddler, and was a virtuoso at working humans (he would place his head on my leg when he wanted a treat (super cute). He taught Zuzu some things and in return Zuzu taught Simba how to bark and be more vocal.


Activities planned with Pembroke:
 Walking and hanging out mostly. Zuzu likes to train. She like "go-arounds," "go-get-your-treat," "roll-over," and duration stays. She likes to play catch and "find your baby." She is also good at walking near us when unleashed and heels when on leash.

Simba was more all over the place on our property. He foraged new trails and was always 60 feet ahead of us. He loved our home and property.


Aware that Pembrokes are busy, noisy dogs?
 Yes

Do you have a veterinarian?

Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this: 		I would tell her, "No." Then, if possible, I would have her do it the correct way, and then give her a treat. Depending on the mistake, she may need to go in her crate for a time-out; not long, about 6 minutes.

Discipline:
 Positive reinforcement, where we treat/reward good behavior.

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 At home with Rick and Zuzu.

House dog or outside dog?

 House dog

People at home during the day?
 Yes. Rick.

Where would dog eat?
 At home in a room by himself.

Where would dog sleep:
 Wherever he wants to sleep. We have Zuzu in her crate in our bedroom. Zuzu likes her crate.
Simba did not like his crate, therefore he slept in his bed in our bedroom.

We will offer a crate to our adopted corgi, but will be flexible as to the dog's preference.


Play & exercise:
 We walk our dogs daily, often two times daily. Zuzu has her routine of training maneuvers. Zuzu and Simba loved to wrestle and did this daily, often twice a day. In some ways, our adopted corgi will be a companion to Zuzu, as well as Rick (and me).

In nice weather, Zuzu and Simba are outside with us when he are doing yard work. Like most dogs, they like(d) to explore.

 Both on leash and restrained to the yard

Current pets dog friendly?

 Yes, all of our current pets are friendly toward dogs.

Are you willing to work on it if your new dog doesn’t get along with your current pets right away?
 Yes. Simba and Zuzu at times got into a fight. Zuzu usually brought most of the energy to these conflicts, but Simba let her know he would not be walked over. We all have learned — Simba too — what Zuzu's triggers are (she is a resource guarder).

Simba was a great dog. He enjoyed wrestling with Zuzu, and would playfully chase after her; Zuzu loves playing "chase me." Simba also learned to hang back when appropriate. He did not like conflict. None of us do, including Zuzu.

After a conflict, Zuzu would get a time out (she likes her crate, as it helps to calm her). Simba would get a time out too, sometimes, depending on how we felt the interaction progressed. He did not like his crate, so for him it was more of a punishment then a cooling off period. Most times, however, Simba was defending himself.

Lifetime commitment to Pembroke?

 Yes, I am willing to commit to this dog for the rest of its life.

Return to Lakeshore if unable to care for Pembroke?
 Yes, I will only surrender my adopted corgi to LPWCR if I am unable to care for it.

Understand no guarantees?

 Yes, I understand that there are no guarantees regarding the condition, health, behavior or personality of the Pembroke I adopt.

Carefully considered the pluses and minuses of adopting a pet?
 Yes, I have carefully thought out my decision to adopt a Pembroke and am willing to deal with the consequences.
