Who is this dog for?

 Ansley

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 I want to adopt a corgi because I think they have a great relationship with people. All the corgis I know are bright, smart, and have great relationships with their people. They also seem like they can be trained to walk on a leash very well. I also think that the corgi is a great size that I would be very comfortable with. From what I have read, they seem to be able to live in an apartment well which is something I highly value as I live in an apartment now.

Activities planned with Pembroke:
 I would like to take the corgi for long walks, throw a tennis ball if he/she could do so off leash without a yard. There is also an off leash dog meet-up across from my apartment that I would love to take my corgi to if it could socialize well with other dogs.

Aware that Pembrokes are busy, noisy dogs?
 Yes

Money for basic care?

 Yes

Money for unforeseen medical expenses?
 Yes

Willing to house train?

Do you have a veterinarian?

 No

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: 		I would use a stern voice to communicate to my corgi that it had make a mistake. Then, I would take the next opportunity to reward the good behavior opposite of that mistake. For example, if the corgi had an accident in my apartment, I would sternly communicate with my corgi when I found the accident and then spray nature's miracle, and the next time the corgi went to the bathroom outside I would give it a treat.

Discipline:
 I think that discipling a dog can be very specific to the dog, so before I really decided how to discipline the dog I would want to learn more about the individual corgi I am adopting in order to understand how it learns best.
Generally, I think the most important method of discipline is ensuring that your corgi respects you as its owner.
Additionally, I have read that corgis often can nip at people's legs as a herding mechanism. To discourage this behavior I would first cry out in pain when the corgi did this even if it did not hurt to communicate to my corgi that this hurts people. Then I would use a stern voice to tell my corgi no.

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 In my apartment.
