Who is this dog for?

 My family

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 My husband is obsessed with this breed. He really has his heart set on one to add to the family. Izzy was his loyal companion for 13 years and he was devastated when she passed in 2017. He is finally ready to move on and is insisting on a Corgi. I am insisting on a rescue. This is our solution. We have 2 large dogs and don’t want another large dog. We love the breed because they are big dog personalities in a little dog body. We love the high energy they have, it’s needed to keep up with our outdoors life style. I am familiar with training dogs. There is no dog in the world more bull headed and stubborn than my sheep dog and he gets compliments on his behavior every time we are out.

Activities planned with Pembroke:
 We are outside all the time. We live on 3 acres with alpacas and goats. We have 2 cats that are indoor/outdoor cats and our dogs are outside with us when we are but prefer to be inside. My husband spends a lot of time in the woods with the dogs hiking the Allegheny forest. I spend every nice day outside walking the neighborhood with my 2.5 year old and my 9 month old. We also like to bring them to the river to swim.

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: 		If it’s during the act I’ll get the dogs attention (snap fingers near them, or make a “ah ah” noise) then sternly and calmly say no and redirect the behavior.

Discipline:
 I used to watch a lot of Cesar Milan so I very strong believe in rewarding a date of mind. If the behavior is energy related we exercise or attention related I ignore the dog until it calms down and then reward that calm state. If it’s housebreaking I’ll tell the dog no and let them outside and over excitedly reward any time he/she goes to the bathroom outside.

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 In our house with all our other animals (minus the alpacas and goats)

House dog or outside dog?

 House dog

People at home during the day?
 No but my other two dogs are and they love their kid free time. We do not crate, unless the dog is more comfortable there we prefer they have the run of the house.

Where would dog eat?
 In the kitchen with my other dogs. We feed them once a day (my border collie will only eat once a day and my sheepdog was eating all the other ones food and getting way too fat) they get dry food mixed with wet (my border collie is a very picky eater).

Where would dog sleep:
 Probably on the bed with us or on the couch with my sheepdog or on the floor with my border collie mix. Where ever they are most comfortable. We have dog beds but they only get used by the cat.

Play & exercise:
 We have cheese daily with our outdoor animals. In the winter that takes about 30 min. The dogs like going out for that and playing with the goats (they get along great). When the weather is nice we are outside during the week a minimum of an hour a day, at the very least. On weekends we spend most of the time outside. Our dogs come with us almost everywhere we go that allows them. We live on 3 acres in the country. Our animals have enough room to roam and still be on our property. We have trained them not to leave the yard and we would never let them out unsupervised.
