Who is this dog for?

 Family pet (mostly for mom) busy house with two kids (12 and 6 yo boys) and two gentle cats

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 They're so beautiful. I'm really more of a dog person, but inherited two cats when my mother passed away. I just bought a new home this year with my own yard and sidewalks and was very excited to own a dog after living in an apartment where they weren't allowed. The best dog I ever had was a toy poodle named Abby. She was so loyal for the 16 years I was blessed to be with her. After her I had an amazing shar-pei/pitbull named Delilah. She had some aggressive tendencies at first with my (then three year old) son, but with a lot of training they became close companions. Tragically, she got out of the yard when the electric fence was broken and got hit by a car. That was a really hard loss. After Delilah passed I didn't get any more pets and we moved into a no dog apartment complex while I finished going to school. With the two cats, I didn't want a large dog and because of the high pitched bark, I didn't want a small dog. I spent a lot of time looking into medium sized dogs and landed on a corgi. From what I read they're friendly, intelligent and outgoing (and adorable) which would suit my family perfectly. I also watched a lot of videos of sixteenth corgis barking and prefer it to a toy poodle by 100%. Through reading adoption profiles I've learned that their personality varies greatly from one individual to another, so think it's amazing that services like yours exist. I sincerely hope to find the perfect corgi to add to our family.

Activities planned with Pembroke:
 I would love to go on walks through the neighborhood, play fetch, go to the dog park, lounge on the couch, cuddle, and have a companion

Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this: 		Dogs make mistakes. It's understandable. It depends on what the mistake was. If a blanket got chewed up, I would show them and offer a stern "no," if it happened more than twice, I would consult a trainer. If it's bathroom in the house after the first few weeks, I would continue to work on potty training and consult a trainer for more things to try if it was extensive or longer than two weeks. If it was any kind of bite, I could consult a trainer and other resources right away.

Discipline:
 A stern "no," and positive reinforcement

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 Hopefully hanging out with me when I'm not at work, but most of the time would be at home, playing out back, or going on a walk

House dog or outside dog?

 House dog

People at home during the day?
 No

Where would dog eat?
 I haven't decided. My cats are on prescription Hill's Science diet due to urinary crystals, so if I don't know what diet the corgi was on prior to coming home with me, I might choose a science diet variety. If I get to know they're current diet and it's healthy, recommended by my vet, and available in my area, I'll stick with that. Most likely scenario is that I'll ask the vet what the best diet for the breed's specific health concerns is and go with that.

Where would dog sleep:
 I want a large plush bed next to the couch, and and bed in my room, but they'll always be welcome to sleep in my bed as well

Play & exercise:
 We'll go on walks every morning before work and after dinner and play in the yard after work

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