Who is this dog for?

 Myself and my partner

Why do you want a Pembroke?
 We have several corgis in our neighborhood and my partner has always loved corgis. They pack a lot of personality into a little package. The corgis in our neighborhood are friendly and curious, always looking to run around with (and boss around) our dog. We are looking for a smaller, intelligent breed that can be active and playful. We’d like a corgi but also decided that our next dog would be a rescue as our first came from a breeder.

Activities planned with Pembroke:
 Walks, short runs, dog park, hiking in forest preserves, road trips and camping. We like to sit with our dog on the couch at the end of the day and wind down as a family. Our corgi would also spend the day with Winston and we’d like to leave them to play together as well.

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: 		We trained our dog using positive reinforcement and verbal corrections. If we catch her doing something she is not supposed to be doing, like eating a sock, we say ‘no’ or ‘leave it’ and take it away from her. If we don’t catch her in the act, we don’t correct her as she likely won’t connect the correction with the action. For potty training, if she started to go in the house, we’d say “hey” and pick her up and go outside. Again, if we didn’t catch her, we didn’t correct her.

Discipline:
 Positive reinforcement and verbal corrections. We found it more helpful to reward good behavior than punish bad behavior.

Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:
 In our house. We used a crate for bedtime until our dog could be trusted to sleep outside of it but she was/is outside of the crate for most of the day. I work from home full time and my partner works from home part time so our corgi would be able to roam (depending on her age) along with our dog.
