Who is this dog for?

 Our family. My husband, myself and our 2 children; Aiden (5.5) and Charlotte (4.5)

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 We are previous owners of a Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Ein. Ein was 11 years old this past May when he crossed rainbow bridge. We are very familiar with the breed and enjoy everything about them. They are very smart and loyal and have such a personality!

Activities planned with Pembroke:
 He would accompany us on family walks and trips. When not outside, he or she would be snuggled on the couch or asleep in one of the beds. With our hours, often times we would take our dog on errands with us.

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:
 {If yes, please provide contact information including the vet’s name, clinic name, street address, city, state, zip, and phone. Also include the website if there is one.:52}

Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this: 		When our Ein chewed our vaccumm cleaner cord, we brought him back to the "crime scene" and said no! in a firm voice & showed him his toys instead. We stay calm because we want the dog to respect us, not fear us.

Discipline:
 We believe in repetition and firm, simple commands. We do not believe in violent (hitting, beating, etc) methods, but rather work with the dog to understand our commands and be rewarded with positive reinforcement. Squirt bottles and time outs are also used by use

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 In our house or bed. It's a personal decision of ours not to do crate training. I have had dogs all my life (afghans, poodle, and an airedale terrier) so to me a dog is another child and belongs anywhere we are.

House dog or outside dog?

 House dog

People at home during the day?
 I (Bridgette) work overnights, one week on, one week off so I am home during the day. My husband works during the day so he is home overnight with the kids. Therefore someone is always home minus the errands and activities.

Where would dog eat?
 From a dog bowl in our kitchen.

Where would dog sleep:
 We would buy a dog bed for it to have a place to call his/her own but should he/she not want to sleep in it, then he/she would be welcome to sleep wherever they preferred.

Play & exercise:
 Daily; in our yard or inside the house with the kids or myself.

How will you exercise your dog?
 Both on leash and restrained to the yard

Fenced yard?

 Yes, I have a fenced in yard.

Willing to pick up dog waste?
 Yes, I will clean up after my dog.

 Yes, I will allow LPWCR representatives to inspect my home prior to allowing me to adopt a Pembroke.

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?
 of course! everything sometimes takes time and you wouldn't give up on your toddler if they didn't like the infant and so we wouldn't give up on our dog either.

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.
