Let's learn about the Corgis!
One of the breed’s most recognizable features is its compact body, short legs, and expressive foxy face. Some Pembroke Welsh Corgis are born with tails, while others naturally have none. This unique trait, combined with their signature wiggling walk, adds to their undeniable charm. Due to modern animal welfare laws, tail docking is no longer practiced in many regions, meaning that natural bobtail Pembrokes are now quite rare in Europe.
The Pembroke Corgi is the perfect choice for those who appreciate intelligence, humor, and an exceptional temperament in a dog. This breed is as quick-witted as it is energetic, effortlessly outsmarting its owner just as easily as it would herd a cattle herd, despite its small size. A big heart in a compact body, the Corgi is active, determined, and fiercely loyal—a devoted companion ready for any adventure
Is the Pembroke Welsh Corgi the right dog for you?
Before deciding on a Pembroke Welsh Corgi, it is essential to evaluate whether this breed suits your lifestyle. Corgis are highly intelligent dogs with a strong will and a herding background—capable of controlling animals much larger than themselves. This means they need consistent training and firm leadership. If you struggle with setting boundaries and maintaining training routines, a Corgi may not be the best choice.
Known for its strong work ethic and adaptability, the breed thrives in various environments, from farms to urban homes. However, its intelligence and independent nature require consistent training and mental stimulation to prevent undesirable behaviors.
Additionally, their unique body structure requires careful management. Their long backs and short legs make them prone to joint issues, so a home with lots of stairs or slippery surfaces can pose risks. Jumping, excessive weight gain, and improper handling can lead to serious health problems. While Corgis are generally a healthy breed, they need an environment that minimizes unnecessary strain on their joints.
Owning a Corgi can be an incredibly rewarding experience, but it requires commitment, consistency, and a suitable home setup. If you can provide proper training, a safe environment, and plenty of engagement, a Corgi will be a loving and loyal companion for years to come.
Heatlth Although Corgis are typically strong and healthy, we are very serious about our dogs' health. For our breeding program, we only choose dogs from long-living and healthy bloodlines. We understand that, there are no full guarantees regarding health, so we conduct health and DNA tests on all our dogs. This extra step helps us further preserve the breed's health.
Type: As breeders, we have a preference for certain traits within our breed. That's why we are very picky when choosing dogs for our breeding program. We carefully select dogs that best show the qualities we want to keep and improve in the breed. This helps us maintain the breed's standards and produce healthier and better dogs.
Lifelong learning: it is very important for us to continue learning and developing, not only as breeders but also as dog owners and as individuals. Over time, we have found that serious and successful breeders are always exceptionally good people, and we consider ourselves fortunate to have the opportunity to learn from some of them. Despite living in times when the internet offers an abundance of information, the most valuable lessons are still learned from people with exceptional experience who pass it on to the next generations.
