Who is this dog for?

 will be a full member of our family. We are sitting for a Pembroke Corgi now for 4-5 months and Dale is part of our family!

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 We have "learned by doing." We are caring for Dale the Corgi for a friend and he's been tremendous. While caring for Dale, we have researched Corgis and have found that Dale fits into what we have found. He is loving, kind, caring, sweet, playful, and a general joy to be around.

Activities planned with Pembroke:
 We play with Dale inside and out. He takes long walks with us at least twice a day. We also play with the tennis ball, Though he doesn't bring the ball back, we don't really care and go to him to get the ball and throw it again. Dale enjoys playing with other dogs, though seems particular on the breeds he consistently barks at! Dale loves to run with us outside, plays with several toys inside, enjoys walking in the large park right across the street, likes running around the basketball court with a dog ball, loves visiting other dogs for the 7am "secret neighborhood dog club" on the closed tennis courts, and loves nothing more than nuzzling with our family members when he turns over to have his tummy rubbed often. Dale follows us around for constant attention, when we aren't doing the same to him!

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: 		With patience and love. Dale had one accident early on and it wasn't a big deal. We didn't bring it up with him, cleaned up, and loved him some more.

Discipline:
 Though there hasn't been a lot of disciplining here with Dale, who we are caring for until January. We are gentle, and use positive reinforcement, as suggested by our trainer friends and dog friends.

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 The Pembroke would spend time in our home, and outside with us around three or more times a day to walk, run, and play.

House dog or outside dog?

 House dog

People at home during the day?
 Yes! All four of us.

Where would dog eat?
 Eat next to us in our dining room. Our dog-sitting friend Dale, eats within a few feet of our dinner table when we eat and then he chills/relaxes when he is done as he eats much faster than we do!

Where would dog sleep:
 Wherever the Corgi feels most comfortable. Our adopted Corgi will have the free run of our home like Dale does now until he leaves in January. Dale sleeps in several places. Sometimes he wants to be in my daughter's bedroom. Sometimes he wants to sleep on the floor next to our bed. Other times, he wants to sleep on one of our couches downstairs.

Play & exercise:
 Right now, our Corgi is out three times a day for an hour. We take him out to walk, play and do those dog things that dogs do, sniff other dogs, run in the park, off -leash in the closed tennis courts and basketball courts. etc…. We are also more than willing to fence in our larger backyard if necessary.
