Who is this dog for?

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 I'm interested in corgis because of the "big dog in a small package" part of them. I want an active dog (though maybe not border collie active) to do outdoor activities with but I don't want a very large dog. (In my house 35lbs is probably about the maximum reasonable size.) I actually enjoy the fact that they can get into trouble when bored – I'm the same way so I feel I would have a kindred spirit in a corgi.

Activities planned with Pembroke:
 I'd like to go hiking (which would require car rides), maybe train them to ride in a bike trailer – harnessed of course, walks, playing catch in the yard. If I find that the dog is comfortable around water maybe even kayaking with them.

With regard to formal training (below), I would first want to see if I could adequately train them myself. If not, formal training would be in order.


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: 		I would generally use a strong voice to scold them, and would remove them from whatever they had gotten into, and keep them away for a while. If appropriate, I would slowly reintroduce them to whatever they got into and closely monitor their behavior for decreasing amounts of time to see if they would again be tempted to get into trouble.

Discipline:
 Strong voice, holding the snout, time out periods (though, frankly, I never had to do this with my Daisy).

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 In the home with me (seeing as I'm probably working from home forever now).

House dog or outside dog?

 House dog

People at home during the day?
 Nope. Just me.

Where would dog eat?
 My Daisy was grossly overweight when I got her, so her diet was initially 1/2 the amount of kibble she would normally require, supplemented with slightly burnt green beans (she wouldn't eat them unless they were a little brown) and sometimes some sweet potato or pumpkin. As her weight came off, we gradually put in more kibble but still usually put a little something extra in (pumpkin, yogurt, etc). I fed her Nutro small-breed senior. Her vet thought that Nutro was a good food and I've also been told that by friend of the family who had in the past bred various breeds of dogs.

Where would dog sleep:
 I'm not big on having animals sleep in the bed (Daisy wouldn't climb up – even with stairs). Her bed was on the floor just to the side of mine. I expect that my next dog would sleep there as well.

Play & exercise:
 I have a yard where they can play, the neighborhood is walkable and there are trails next to the river that are only about 6 blocks away. There is a good park about three blocks away, but I'm not a fan of how people manage, or rather not, their dogs. There is a nicer dog park a few miles up the road that tends to be better behaved.

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

Fenced yard?

 Yes, I have a fenced in yard.
