Questions Regarding Motivation for Adopting and Intentions
Who is this dog for?	Us! We want a lovable friend to have around, okay with, and to enjoy walks with.
Why do you want a Pembroke?	We love the breed. It’s the big dog in a smaller package which is exactly what we are looking for. We love the playful/adventurous side of the breed, as well as the busybody they tend to be.
Activities planned with Pembroke:	We’d go on walks around our neighborhood and our nearby parks, we are next to a lovely river walk. We would play basic dog things like fetch, tug o war, and generally just play with him to keep him busy.
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?	No
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:	With nipping, we would redirect the biting to toys, not people. We would use sound. I’ve read that corgis respond well to clicker training and human sound. Training is key. Because Corgis tend to be active little guys we would exercise him to tire him out. Time out areas if needed, and a general mixture of all those things.
Discipline:	I’ve learned that punishment is not a good form of discipline, but instead to treat when they do the right thing. Accidents happen, dogs often don’t know better and act on instinct. We are a reward for good behavior kind of family, and disappointing sounds when they haven’t behaved.
Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:	Freedom amongst the house. Luckily as a college Professor, I spend a good amount of time at home. My wife is a nurse for a doctors office, so she is a 9-5 worker with weekend off.
