Questions Regarding Motivation for Adopting and Intentions
Who is this dog for?	Family pet, we are a married couple and already have one corgi at home.
Why do you want a Pembroke?	We adopted Lola in June 2018. She was 6 years old at the time. We re-homed her from a breeder, so she has had 5 litters. We absolutely love the corgi breed. We needed a dog that would be able to provide emotional support for us and want to be around people. She loves meeting everyone who comes over and has to introduce to everyone she meets on walks. We love her personality. She is a bit of a couch potato compared to the typical corgi demeanor. She never had toys, but we are working everyday to increase her activity level and play more. We would love to have another corgi that would provide companionship for Lola and us as well as help Lola be more active.
Activities planned with Pembroke:	We walk Lola twice a day, in the morning and in the evening. We also try to play with Lola as much as possible, but we are still working to get her interested in toys. We only leave her home alone for 5-6 hours a day. We are able to fluctuate our schedules to make sure someone is around to play and cuddle with her throughout the day. Lola never learned to play fetch, but we are working on this. We would continue all these activities with a second corgi,

Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this:	Depending on the mistake, we would train using stern commands. We would also try to prevent the behavior again depending on what that is. We never get mad at Lola or try to intimidate her in anyway.
Discipline:	We use stern commands with Lola. If she does something wrong, we try not to give her attention right away so she knows the behavior was not ok.
Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:	We have a single family home with a large fenced back year. We also have a screen porch with a dog door access to the fenced yard.

Where would dog eat?	We have our dog food/water area in our common living area between the kitchen and living room, it is all open.
Where would dog sleep:	It would sleep anywhere it wanted in the house. We have a dog bed in our bedroom that Lola loves to sleep in at night.
Play & exercise:	We will walk the corgi twice a day. A few times a week we try to go to a new park or a new neighborhood to walk. We have dog toys and bones we give to Lola and encourage her to play with. We leave the toys out all the time for play, especially when we are not home.
