|
Who is this dog for? |
My husband and me. No kids. No other pets. | ||||||
Why do you want a Pembroke? |
I generally like the temperament of herding dogs. I like the size of a corgi, and I love how they look. I like how smart they are and that they are eager to learn. I don't mind shedding. In fact, I think there should be dog hair in everything you own, including your food! | ||||||
Activities planned with Pembroke: |
Lots of walking. Playing ball in the yard. I'd like to try agility. No dog parks… I think those are generally asking for trouble. Lots of belly rubs. | ||||||
