Questions Regarding Motivation for Adopting and Intentions
Who is this dog for?	My two daughters and myself.
Why do you want a Pembroke?	From the age of five until I was 18, my very best friend was our pwc Lady Samantha Duchess. She was a rescue: as a vet, my grandpa was asked to put a litter of puppies down that were attacked by a German Shepard. He spared my Sammy for me. She always tried to lift my mood and could even say she loved or missed me. She trained me as much as I tried to train her during my time with 4-H. I miss that love and comfort only a corgi seems to have. I have never encountered a breed I am more pleased, entertained, or comfortable with. I love the corgi personality, their loyalty to family, and the many hours of laughter from their character; from running rounds back and forth, to tipping backwards, and frapping in the snow, this breed has my heart. My heart hurts for many reasons, and I believe there is a corgi that needs me just the same out there.
Activities planned with Pembroke:	Beyond my daughters playing with her/him, cuddling and tug of rope are of the up most importance with our Pembroke. We love spending time hiking and camping in good weather, bringing our pwc would be a must. If for some reason our corgi can't join, she/he can stay with Grandma and Bailey(pwc/heeler mix) until we return. Howling together is a must.
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:	Persistent redirection, whether it's redirecting to potty outside, or to play with a more appropriate toy, patience and consistency are a must.
Discipline:	Verbal (a "stern" no) combined with redirecting him/her to proper behavior, which depend on circumstances.
Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:	In our home with us.
Discipline:	Verbal (a "stern" no) combined with redirecting him/her to proper behavior, which depend on circumstances. Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time: In our home with us.
House dog or outside dog?	House dog
People at home during the day?	Half days during the week, and we are home all day on weekends.
Where would dog eat?	In the kitchen by our table, with us.
Where would dog sleep:	I would love to give her/him their own cozy bed, but I wouldn't be the least bit disappointed if she/he chose to sleep at my feet, by my side, or with my daughters.
Play & exercise:	Beyond me and my two kids playing soccer or randomly goofing around with her/him, we will take many walks on the cedar valley trail right out our front door. We will have playdates with two other families that have mixed corgi breeds a couple times a week. I plan to purchase good sturdy ropes and random toys she/he takes interest in on trips to the store. If she/he is older, play will be as much as they can keep up,

Willing to train children?	I have already done this. We are surrounded by dog owners and respecting animals is a must. I am prepared to teach them more and oversee their play to adapt to our pwc if she/he has any differences with them.
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?	I have actually spent a lot of time helping friends and neighbors introduce their shy dogs to other pets to ease the process. I have a friend with a heeler (Dixie Dog) that has been used for this social training quite often. Dixie dog has one of the mixed corgi pups we will be playing with first and, over my pwc's time, often.
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.
Understand no guarantees?	Yes, I understand that there are no guarantees regarding the condition, health, behavior or personality of the Pembroke I adopt.
Carefully considered the pluses and minuses of adopting a pet?	Yes, I have carefully thought out my decision to adopt a Pembroke and am willing to deal with the consequences.
