Questions Regarding Motivation for Adopting and Intentions
Who is this dog for?	Our family. Mostly for my children. We currently have 2 Bernese Mountain Dogs and 2 cats (rescue). We used to have Sir Max, Pembroke. He lived to just short of his 14th birthday. My children are constantly asking for a corgi. They LOVE animals, as do I. We would like to add a Corgi to our 'zoo'. 🙂
Why do you want a Pembroke?	As previous commentary, we had Max the Corgi for almost 14 years. I love the corgi personality. Independent, active, loving and yet can be stubborn. LOL. I love that they are protective and happy. Our Max was so smart. He LOVED our family farm and would run and run. My vet is also a corgi family (they have 3) and we share a love for their active and pleasant loving personalities.
Activities planned with Pembroke:	Daily we have a fenced yard. We also walk each day. We live in a neighborhood but right on the edge of the 'country'. Our family also has a 160 acre farm about 2 hours north of where I live. We go up there about monthly. All our dogs LOVE the farm and roam around with each other.
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:	Swiftly move to remove them from the situation and replace. i.e. chewing on furniture, I would move the dog to their 'park it' space and replace with a bone or toy.
Discipline:	I do NOT use significant discipline. I use more positive response. My dogs usually know when I am not happy by simply using a strong, louder voice. I work training through out their lives. And, I work my own training. 🙂
Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:	With us. We travel as a pack. Ha. My animals are house animals. Or in my fenced back yard, a walk or the farm. I always bring a dog with me when I am out and about. Unless of course it is wicked hot. Then I leave them home in the air conditioner.
