Type of Dog Wanted
Ages interested in:	3 years – 5 years, 5 years – 10 years	Gender preferred:	Either a Male or a Female	Color preferred:	Any color	Activity level:	Couch Potato, Outgoing, Quiet, Playful
Other preferences:	I retired young so I have a lot of time for a dog. I have had multiple pets at the same time and my animals have lived a long time. I am aware of the vet bills for end of life care. I lost my beagle/terrier in January 2017. I decided not to get another dog until the 16.5 year old cat left me since she was a fragile diabetic with heart/ kidney issues and litter box issues. I did not want to stress her. I lost her this past Good Friday.

Questions Regarding Motivation for Adopting and Intentions
Who is this dog for?	me
Why do you want a Pembroke?	The size of the dog will be perfect for me. The personality of the pembroke seems to be quite cheerful and would fit in my lifestyle. I read that they need a gentle firm hand since they can take over the house and become the boss. The worst thing that a person can do a corgi is put him in the backyard or scold them harshly. I believe that a dog or cat is a member of the family and must be treated with honor and respect. The only experience I have with a corgi is a neighbor has one and he says that his dog is the best dog he ever owned. I have done research on the corgi. I read that some of the corgi's have the genetic disease DM, shed alot, and need to keep busy.
