Questions Regarding Motivation for Adopting and Intentions
Who is this dog for?	Hannah Meyering & Shayne Yoakem
Why do you want a Pembroke?	First of all, I love their spunky personalities and how love how it compliments their already adorable looks! I am a dog groomer so I do see a variety of breeds daily including some corgis and similar type breeds. I have researched the breed. I know and understand pembrokes health is very important and if overfed they can become obese, it is important to keep them on a well maintained diet and give regular exercise. I also keep my current dogs on Nupro which is a glucosamine supplement that helps with coat, skin, and overall general health. Also their grooming is very important as they are extreme shedders and need nails done and ears cleaned to reduce back problems and future ear infections. I know it is also important to make sure to exercise this breed because they were originally bred for herding and do usually like to be active even with their small legs 🙂 I also know that size doesn't affect how these dogs think, they are independant and do like to think for themselves. I would love the opportunity to get to rescue a dog of this breed!!

Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this:	If a pembroke makes a mistake, first identify the mistake and also identify if they KNOW if they have make a mistake. Then, correct the mistake by showing them and saying "No". If they do not do the mistake again and corrected it, reward them! Also, know difference between punishment and correction. Punishing a dog, especially a past mistake is not doing to teach them anything. Make sure your body language is firm when correcting.
Discipline:	-Correcting right when the action is happening -Positive reaffirmation when the dog listens/learns
Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:	In the house, outside with us, kennel when not home
