Questions Regarding Motivation for Adopting and Intentions
Who is this dog for?	Myself.
Why do you want a Pembroke?	I have always had a weakness for Pembrokes. Despite having had little personal experience with the breed, I have done a considerable amount of research into it in order to make sure the breed would truly be the right fit. After reviewing the breed's standard traits and needs, I am confident that it would. I am especially attracted to the high intelligence of Pembrokes and their affectionate nature. Both traits, especially intelligence, are very important to me. I also adore the appearance of Pembrokes. They are the perfect size for me and no other breed has managed to capture my heart quite like this one, with their big smiles and pointy ears.
Activities planned with Pembroke:	Go for walks, cuddle and take naps, visit the local dog park (provided s/he would do well in that situation, with other dogs), attend obedience classes and, potentially, agility training.
Aware that Pembrokes are busy, noisy dogs?	Yes

Focusing on positive reinforcement and constantly rewarding good behavior.
Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:	At home with me indoors and, likely, in his/her indoor kennel when no one is home.

Why do you want a Pembroke?	1) They are soooo cute! (Obviously) 2) They are a good size and energy level for apartment living 3) Intelligent and trainable 4) Will enjoy walks and playing in the local dog park 5) Friendly with strangers (not typically aggressive or scared) 6) Enjoys attention and will give affection in return
Activities planned with Pembroke:	Daily walks, local dog park, trips to Lake Michigan (only 40 min drive), trips to visit grandma in Flint
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:
Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this:	I believe that rewarding good behavior is more important that drawing attention to bad behavior. If the Pembroke makes a mistake it is probably because he/she is either still learning or seeking attention. Instead of getting mad about a potty accident (or whatever the mistake may be), my first instinct would be to make sure he/she feels okay (not sick or injured), if not, then I would give them some one on one time and make sure they know they are loved and given the attention they desire.
Discipline:	This will be my husband's and my first dog so we will be learning, but I think we like the idea of not drawing attention to bad behavior, but rather rewarding good behavior.
Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:	He/She would spend most of the time in our 2 bedroom, ground floor apartment. I do not believe in crating dogs, so he/she would be alone for about 5 hours Monday-Thursday, otherwise he/she would be under my direct supervision. Occasional trips to grandma's house where there are two cats.

House dog or outside dog?	House dog
People at home during the day?	Yes. I work 2-7PM Monday- Thursday. My husband works 8-5 PM Monday-Friday. So the Pembroke will only be along from 2-5PM
Where would dog eat?	In the kitchen
Where would dog sleep:	Where ever he/she wants to sleep. If he/she prefers the couch, our bed, or his/her own bed, they will all be available to him/her.
Play & exercise:	A daily walk, playing catch outside, going to the dog park to meet other dogs, running and swimming at the beach, as well as light activity in the house.
How will you exercise your dog?	Both on leash and restrained to the yard

Who will be responsible for the adopted corgi’s care?	Ashley Kim
Willing to train children?	Yes, absolutely, however, we do not have any children at the moment.
Any allergies?	No one is allergic.
Current pets:
Current pets dog friendly?
Are you willing to work on it if your new dog doesn’t get along with your current pets right away?	First, I don't know if our bunny is or is not friendly toward dogs because he has not been introduced to a dog before. He has been introduced to cats and he was mildly curious, but mostly disinterested. He is a skittish bunny, so I think that I will have to do a good amount of training between the Pembroke and the bunny so that they will learn to respect each other's space.
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.

Questions Regarding Motivation for Adopting and Intentions
Who is this dog for?	The corgi is for me. I would just love to have a companion, and corgis have always been one of my favorite breeds.
Why do you want a Pembroke?	i really want a corgi becuase it is a big dog in a little dog body! they are funny animals who love attention, something i have plenty to give, and have always been a big part of my life. my aunt and uncle had three corgis when i was growing up and i always enjoyed going over their house and playing with them. Their dogs Dudley, Sam, and Gizmo are the reason for my life appreciation for the dog breed. I know they can be quite loud and rambunctious at times but all it takes is patience and just letting a dog be a dog. I have thought about buying one of my own but i think that would be such a waste when there are already so many good corgis that need homes, and I hope that I am in consideration for adopting one of them.
Activities planned with Pembroke:	well there are plenty of dog parks to take him to so he could be socialized around other animals. East Lansing is known for their wild life so i can take him kayaking, take him for walks on a trail. Since i still still visit my parents a lot during the summer we can take him on boat rides to local islands to run around and swim. Me and my family always took our dogs every where with us. And I plan on taking my companion with me where ever i go. just because it would probably be more fun with him by my side anyways!

Vet contact info:
Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this:	well dogs can be dogs. I would just not encourage them to do that behavior so either or wouldnt pet him or give him a treat within that time frame to show him i wasnt happy. But i would make a note of it and find a way to prevent it from happening again.
Discipline:	To me its not about discipling, but rewarding when they do something right. Most of the time a dog wont know why they are being disciplined. So if my dog does something I dont want them to do i will not rewards them. However if they do something that i wanted them to do i will reward them with a treat or affection.
Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:	They would wither spend it in the house with me or out on walks

We were recommended to Lakeshore Rescue by our neighbors, Mike and Chris Slauson, who adopted their beloved, Karley from you. Cody and I are also huge Corgi fans and one day hope to adopt one of our own. But for now, we are focusing on fulfilling Patti & Keith's Christmas wish. Thanks so much!

Questions Regarding Motivation for Adopting and Intentions
Who is this dog for?	Both of us. Erica Schwoerer and John Young. We have bought bought a house together and will be getting married in the next year or two.
Why do you want a Pembroke?	We have done some research looking into different breeds of dogs that would work for us as a new family. We found that corgis seemed to be our favorite breed with it's many wonderful characteristics. John has also had some experience interacting with a Corgi in person and enjoyed the dog. We like that Pembroke Welsh corgis are smaller and fairly intelligent (we would like to train the dog to do multiple tricks). We love the look of corgis and think they are a beautiful dog breed. They tend to be good with children and other pets.
Activities planned with Pembroke:	John is really interested in training the corgi to do multiple tricks and finds it a lot of fun to spend time with dogs teaching them things. Erica wants to train as well but she is inexperienced in training dogs. We are looking forward to going on walks with the corgi and playing inside (as well as outside in nice weather). John and Erica are also looking into agility training for dogs. We think it would be a lot of fun although we probably won't get into competition in the near future. We just think it would be a fun activity to do with the Pembroke.
Aware that Pembrokes are busy, noisy dogs?	Yes
Money for basic care?	Yes
Money for unforeseen medical expenses?	No
Willing to house train?	Yes Willing to do formal training? Yes
Do you have a veterinarian?	No
Vet contact info:
Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this:	It would depend on the "mistake". If the dog pees/poops in the house: if it is doing it in front of us, we will rush it outside; if it makes a mistake inside and it is found later, we will show the dog the mistake and say no. Corgis are usually smart enough to understand what we mean. If more mistakes are made, we will go back to basics by limiting room access to one or two rooms while we reteach the dog.
Discipline:	Verbal "no" is often used. Time outs are used immediately after bad behaviors if necessary. It is important that these are followed immediately after the undesired action and isn't confusing or unnecessarily prolonged. If the dog does something small, a verbal no is usually enough to start with. However, if the dog nips a person, time out in the Kennel for a short time period would be more appropriate.
Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:	With us (Erica and John) inside our home. The dog will be an indoor dog and will be cared for by us. We are not sure what you are asking. This seems like the same question as the one that follows it. If you could clarify, we would give a more appropriate answer.
