Who is this dog for?

 We are a "young" but not to young family (we are almost 40). We have rescued two dogs in the past, when we were really young. The first was from Puerto Rico, she was 1 or 2 then and our son was three (both our kids were raised with small dogs.) Cassy is now 17! The other, Cindy, we got to be a companion to Cassy, was 5 at the time then, and is now 10! They are both small, 1 is 25 lbs the other is 35 lbs, Jack Russel beagle, and Basset/ jack Russel/ corgi mix (we think.) Our first rescued girl is slowing down, spends most of her time sleeping at my feet, and now our other baby needs a friend with more energy, but not a puppy to drive the old lady nuts. We have a fenced yard, and dog door. Two kids, a son who is now 18, and a daughter 12 year old, both are excellent with dogs. Were both veterans, and extremely responsible. And, working for the power company means my spouse has stable employment, even right now.

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 My grandma rescued one from a pet shelter when I was very little. Sweetest dog ever (except mine now…love them).

I like the Jack Russel mixes I've had, but I think it would be fun to try another breed, but one I am familiar with. We do think Cindy, our younger rescued dog, has some corgi.

They are so cool, and cute.


Activities planned with Pembroke:
 My dogs have a fenced yard, we take them to dog parks when we travel (none nearby.) My children love to play with them, although they don't fetch (our two.), they do wrestle. We try to walk them at least once a day, in addition to the fenced yard. Having two Jack Russel mixes means we are used to high energy dogs. The Basset and Beagle in them, means they are stubborn, and vocal. We did have to house break Cassy, she had been a street dog in Puetro Rico. We had to re-house train Cindy. Us staying home right now means we would have the time to invest in this, if needed. And while we have trained our own dogs, if needed, we would do obedience classes.

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?

 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: 		If I see the mistake made, like wetting the floor, you show them, say NO and put them outside. We had to give Cassy treats to coax her outside in the rain, but she eventually got it. Cindy bit my husband when we first got her, she's sweet as pie now.

Discipline:
 We try to use positive discipline, treats rewards, cuddles. Cassy is getting old enough she's starting to have potty problems, so we give her treats to go outside.

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 With the family, inside/ outside. It would be fun to get a one who likes to swim, we put up a pool in the summers.

House dog or outside dog?

 House dog

People at home during the day?
 Right now, all day, two adults, one child (My son is 18). When I am working, no, but only school hours, with access to a fenced yard. Next year my son will be in college, college courses don't take "all day" a good amount of college is doing homework. Regular school is only a few hours. My husbands schedule means that he works shift work, and gets a reasonable amount of time off (4 days working 3 off type thing) So it would be rare for the dog to be alone more than a few hours. My son was raised with dogs and is very good at caring for them.

Where would dog eat?
 Currently, my dogs eat in the kitchen, next to each other, out of their own bowls. When we first got Cindy she had food issues, so we kept them apart to prevent fighting. I anticipate the dog will also eat in the kitchen, but we can change that if needed.

Where would dog sleep:
 We have dog beds through out the house. Cassy, likes to sleep in the middle of the landing (pretty much where ever the dog wants is the point).

Play & exercise:
 As much or little as they want. We play with Cindy often, her favorite games are chase and tug of war. Cassy doesn't want to play to much anymore, but she used to love to wrestle. I do have the kids walk them at least once a day, especially now as it seems to be helping Cassy not have potty accidents.

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

Fenced yard?

 Yes, I have a fenced in yard.
