About

The Pembroke Welsh Corgi is a cheerful, intelligent, and very active dog originally bred as a herding dog. These spirited little dogs are highly affectionate and possess strong character, making them fascinating companions. They are eager to learn but require consistent training to channel their independence. Corgis are great family dogs, as they get along well with children and have a positive attitude towards family. The breed requires plenty of daily exercise to stay happy and healthy. They are sporty and surprisingly fast, making an active lifestyle important for them. Whether in the city or countryside, they adapt easily and love being part of the family. To avoid obesity and boredom, it's essential to meet their exercise needs with daily walks and playtime. Corgis have a special affinity for people and are known for being very loyal and protective. Their herding instinct may lead them to nip at children's heels, which can be managed with training. With proper socialization and loving upbringing, they become great companions that bring joy and life into any home. With their charming nature and keen sense of family ties, Pembroke Welsh Corgis make delightful companions.
