Who is this dog for?

 Our family – Tiffany, Ken, Zoe (16) and Ben (12).

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 In general, Pembroke Corgis are a great fit for what our family is looking for in a pet – personable, playful, and adoring of human attention. As a family, we have done our research. While we don't have a fenced yard, keeping a Corgi would fit into our lifestyle as we are active in walking the neighborhood, routinely visiting parks, and enjoying the outdoors. When my husband first considered welcoming a pet to the family back in 1999, my desire was for a corgi, however our income prevented us from making that a reality. Fortunately, our rescue dog, Nikki, came into our lives and stole our hearts. We had her until November 2014. We are ready to open our hearts again to our next pet.

Activities planned with Pembroke:
 Daily walks, 1-2x weekly visits to the dog park (when they open back up here in MI), shower him/her with fun toys, and bring along on family vacations.

Aware that Pembrokes are busy, noisy dogs?
 Yes

 No

Vet contact info:

Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this: 		First, I would determine whether the mistake was due to a physical ailment or poor behavior. If it's behavior related, such as jumping up, I would ignore it by turning away and re-entering the room. I would do this until the jumping up has ceased. As humans, we would wouldn't make entries a big deal, to also not encourage the behavior.

Discipline:
 Positive reinforcement would be our method of "discipline." Using praise, treats, toys, and play would be the carrots on the end of the stick. To interrupt negative behavior, we would use stern voices to distract and then redirect to a positive behavior.

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 At our home, both inside and outside.

 On a pet bed (or crate, if needed early on), in my bedroom.
