Who is this dog for?

 Family dog

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 We are looking for an affectionate, intelligent, active dog that will fit in with our "pack". Our Great Pyrenees is always looking for a playmate to run with and chase. Through our fostering activities with Retrieve a Golden of the Midwest, we have discovered she plays best with smaller dogs and puppies. The protective nature of the Corgi will fit right in with our suburban LGD.

Activities planned with Pembroke:
 We are an active family and take formal walks with the dogs daily and we make frequent visits to local nature preserves for trail walks. We spend a lot of time in our back yard in the evenings and on weekends – we hate being indoors. Even in the winter we light a bonfire and play with the dogs in the back yard.

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: 		Correct and redirect – e.g. if he is chasing the cat, stop the activity and redirect to a more appropriate one.

Discipline:
 Our dogs are rather easy to discipline. A firm "No!" and moving them on to something else is generally all it takes. Actually, I have the "mom stare" down pretty well. I always follow up with a treat when they stop and go on to something positive.

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 Wherever we are – in the living room, back yard, home office.

Where would dog sleep:
 Wherever he wants. Our English Cream prefers to sleep in the shower in our master bath, the Pyrenees sleeps on our bed or the floor.

Play & exercise:

 Both on leash and restrained to the yard

 Yes, I have a fenced in yard.

Willing to pick up dog waste?
 Yes, I will clean up after my dog.

 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?
 We have been fostering dogs of varying ages and we have experience introducing the dogs to our cats. Additionally, our cats are dog-savvy and know how to co-exist with dogs. Our cats are used by other fosters who need to "cat-test" their foster dogs. We will definitely work towards a peaceful co-existence, if that is the best we can get.

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.

 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.
