Who is this dog for?

 My family and myself

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 As with most people I have always been drawn to the adorable appearance of the Corgi and I want to be transparent. Upon further research, I also found they are a great fit for my lifestyle. When thinking about a dog I want one that I am able to take on walks and play with but that does not have so much energy I would not be able to keep up with them. As someone who has grown up with dogs, I also know that corgis tend to be characterized as "fun-loving, and easygoing" which would fit right in with my lifestyle. I am aware that there are health concerns with this bread and that they were originally bred to be herd animals. Both of these have been taken into consideration when deciding to apply.

Activities planned with Pembroke:
 As stated before I have done a significant amount of research and the first thing I would want to do is begin training classes with the dog. I would ideally want them to be able to be social with other dogs during these classes (covid permitting) as I know they are social animals. I would also commit to being outside with them daily in order to help them expel energy and get exercise. I also would simply enjoy being with my dog, providing them with love, attention, and toys.

Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this: 		I think it would be imperative to stay calm and try to work more on positive rewards and reinforcement. I would also make a note that it was something I, as the owner, would need to work on in training.

Discipline:
 I would try to be consistent and redirect. For instance, I would reward for positive behavior and try to not give much attention to the negative in order to keep my pet focuses on the rewards and doing the things to get those said rewards.

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 The dog would be able to have free roam of the house while we were home and I would work to crate train them for when we are not there.
