Questions Regarding Motivation for Adopting and Intentions
Who is this dog for?	It is for our family. We currently have our 3 year old rescued German Shepherd x Border Collie, Finley, and we are looking to finally expand our family. We foster with 2 different agencies here in the twin cities and excited about getting our own 2nd dog. Finely is dying for a forever friend!
Why do you want a Pembroke?	We love our border collie and his working dog mentality and behavior. We love how he is a family and people dog and we see those traits and behaviors in the Corgi. The looks and body type first attracted us to it, and as we investigated further, we realized it is the perfect fit for us. Our dog loves to pal around with and play with smaller dogs and girls especially, so it is a great fit for him too.
