| Questions Regarding Motivation for Adopting and Intentions | |||||||
|
Who is this dog for? |
My family. Myself, my husband, daughter (age 4) daughter (age 3 months), Chihuahua (age 11) | ||||||
Why do you want a Pembroke? |
What first attracted me to the Corgi was that it looks identical to my German Shepard/husky mix dog that passed away, only shorter. I like their smaller size and that they are energetic. I have done research on the breed online. | ||||||
Activities planned with Pembroke: |
I have a two acre lawn, the activities would include playing in the yard with the kids, going for walks, playing fetch. We also have a farm down the road, if the Corgi enjoyed going there I would take them to walk and play there as well. | ||||||
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 | ||||||

Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this: |
If it went to the bathroom on the floor I would point at it say "No" and put it outside or take it outside. I would be consistent in telling it No when bad behavior took place and try to teach it the correct way to behave. I would also utilize putting it in its kennel for some time ( less than an hour) if the behavior continued. | ||||||
Discipline: |
Stern voice and face. Loud verbal commands. Time out in its kennel. | ||||||
Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time: |
I am looking for an inside dog so it would be in my home all day. If it could not be trusted alone I would have to put in a kennel if we left. I have a large kennel that I used with my German Shepard that is inside. While my husband and I are at work the kids are home with a baby sitter so the dog would not be alone much. | ||||||

|
House dog or outside dog? |
House dog | ||||||
People at home during the day? |
Yes. The whole family is home on the weekends and the kids and babysitter are home during the day. | ||||||
Where would dog eat? |
The bowl and water dish would be in the kitchen. | ||||||
Where would dog sleep: |
I would have a dog bed near my own bed. If the dog happened to be destructive during the night there would be a dog bed in the kennel. | ||||||
Play & exercise: |
We have a large yard where it could run and exercise daily. In nice weather it could be taken out on a leash for walks with me as well. We also have two sets of stairs in our home. Our yard is not fenced in but it is about an acre and a half and it is surrounded by corn fields. If there became a problem with the dog leaving the yard I would look into underground fencing rather than a full fence due to the size. | ||||||

Both on leash and restrained to the yard | ||||||
