Who is this dog for?

 Our family. We currently have a 2 1/2 year old corgi (Olive). Her companion, Annie a 14 year old beagle, passed away recently. We would love a second corgi for our home, and to keep Olive company.

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 We love our current corgi Olive, and her energy. She has a stubborn streak, and is very clever. She is so cute we can't stand it.

Activities planned with Pembroke:
 We live in the country in SE Michigan, on 10 acres. We have 1.5 acres fenced for the dogs to run in . We have mowed trails in the remainder of our property to walk the dogs on when we don't want travel for an extensive walk. We would also bring the dog with us for outdoor event, and for shopping at stores that allow dogs.
We camp a few times a year, and the dogs come 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: 		We only correct her for things we see her do. Usually, a firm "No" is all we do.

Discipline:
 See above.

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 We have a doggy door. The dogs tend to spend a lot of their time in the yard, but always have access to come in. Probably about 50-50 between indoors and outdoors during the day if the weather is nice.

House dog or outside dog?

 House dog

People at home during the day?
 No. My wife and I both work, and our son is in High School. We would plan a period of two weeks (using vacation time) to have at least one of us home at all times when we first get a new dog. This way, we can supervise the integration of a new dog into our home.

Where would dog eat?
 We separate our dogs for meals. This ensures each dog gets the correct amount of food, and reduces potential confrontation. We have two locations in the house where we typically feed each dog.

Where would dog sleep:
 We have dog beds in a couple locations in the house, including two in our bedroom. We also have a large crate with a dog bed in it, but none of our dogs seem to want to use it.

Play & exercise:
 Our adopted corgi will be a family member and exercise each day. Currently, the neighbor has two dogs also, and they like to run up and down the fence line together, barking excitedly. We usually walk Olive (our corgi) at least once a day for a mile or so.

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.

Willing to use a crate?
 We have a 4 foot tall fence made of "horse fence" material. There is about 1 1/2 acres of fenced yard. The fence is quite secure. The beagle was an escape artist. We had to keep the fence up diligently to keep her from getting out.

Description of yard:

 The fenced yard is about 1 1/2 acres. There is an above ground swimming pool with a ladder that our existing dogs have never been able to climb. There is a solar panel array (that should pose no hazard to dogs or people). There is an outbuilding, and some raised garden beds.. Mostly just grass.

 Yes, everyone agrees and wants to adopt a Pembroke Welsh Corgi.

{Please list and describe all of the pets that currently live in your home, including the name, type, age, sex and whether it is neutered. For example, Lenny, komodo dragon, 3 years old, not neutered.:80}

Current pets dog friendly?

 Yes, all of our current pets are friendly toward dogs.

Are you willing to work on it if your new dog doesn’t get along with your current pets right away?
 Yes. But it would be nice for us (including Olive) to meet a potential adoption candidate before the new dog enters our home.

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.
