Who is this dog for?

 We are hoping to rescue a female corgi in the ages of 4-6. In our family is a 5 year old male cogri. He would like a companion. We got Felix as a puppy.
Our family hobby in the summers are sailing on Lake Superior in the Apostles. Felix loves the beaches in the Apostles. We are hoping to have another Corgi to love too.

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 We want to adopt another Corgi so our Felix will have a girlfriend. We would like to have another corgi around also.

Felix needs a "Morty" since he is "Maple" – I don't think Felix is as bossy as Maple is though. My 21 year old daughter follows a couple Corgi owners on instagram.
So if you know who Morty & Maple are you will know those Corgi doggy personalities.


Activities planned with Pembroke:
 We live on a small river so we take Felix in the kayak. Full roam of the back yard and can go on both docks to watch the boaters go by. We also are buying our 3rd sailboat. A 38 footer so we will have plenty of room to bring 2 corgis sailing!

Funny note. Felix will bark like crazy at other dogs til he gets his sniff on. Once he gets his sniff on, he will walk by the same dog over and over. The marina in Bayfield, WI has a lot of dogs. He as many dog friends he knows.


Aware that Pembrokes are busy, noisy dogs?
 Yes

Do you have a veterinarian?

 Yes

Vet contact info:

Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this: 		Usually our Felix does not make a mistake unless something is wrong. Like pooping in the front room. He is bell trained. So he rings the bell at the back door. If he poops in the front room. It is because we did not hear him ring the bell or something is wrong like diarrhea.
I guess i don't see how dogs make mistakes. They are dogs doing dog things. I suppose you mean like the one time Felix growled at us when he had a lucky bone (inch long bone with some marrow). We just told him no in a low voice and started putting ourselves between the lucky bones and taking it a few times on every lucky bone we gave him. But that was 4 years ago. He not grrrry on that stuff anymore.

Discipline:
 I guess I explained about about how to make those lucky bones ours and we are sharing it with Felix.
Ohh his worst command is "come" – what we did was run the other direction yelling treat. Felix being a Corgi his instinct to heard us would kick in and he would chase us back to the house and he would get a treat cuz he came back. But he is 5 now and pretty good are listening to come now.

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 In our house with Felix. Or if we go to the sailboat for the weekend, both dogs would get to come with.

House dog or outside dog?

 House dog

People at home during the day?
 We have 2 girls, ages 19 and 20. Both live with us. Pretty active household

Where would dog eat?
 Felix eats in the kitchen. He gets Acana for food. He used to eat Orijen until they changed the recipe and he got the poops. He had to spend a night in the ER for that illness.
The the new Corgi, would also get Acana in the kitchen. Felix also gets part of an egg, Fage yogurt, chicken, or beef – with his dog food. Not much but a small amount. If he does not get that in his food….. we get the look.

Where would dog sleep:
 He sleeps under whoevers bed he wants at night. If a door is shut, he lets you know whose room he wants in.

Play & exercise:
 They have the full back yard to run around in. Felix fraps in the house. Felix goes on walks a couple times a week with Kent.

How will you exercise your dog?
 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 fence on the sides of the yard and river that is on the back of the yard.
In the winter we put up a short fence so he does not chase a fox or a coyote down the iced up river.
In the summer the river is open and the dogs get to go on the docks. The one side of the yard the fence goes out in the water a bit. Felix wont go past his belly in the water.

 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?
 Felix loves other dogs. He has been very socialized with other dogs. Just never lived with another dog. Other dogs have been at our house and those dogs take his lucky bones to chew on and he does not mind much. I think he has gotten attitude in the past but he must have got him over it. Will have to ask the hubby how.
If we were considered for a female Corgi I would want to verify how she is with other dogs. If she cant tolerate other dogs, then she is not the dog for our family.

 Yes, I have carefully thought out my decision to adopt a Pembroke and am willing to deal with the consequences.
