Reader's Comments on the Pembroke Welsh Corgi Dog
Added on Feb 20th, 2009
I have a 3 yr. old Pembroke named Fagin, and he lives up to his name! He is definitely a "thief of hearts." It is a pleasure to walk with him...all the dogs who are behind their fences bark and bark at him and he merely casts them a quick glance and continues on with his Corgi "trot," never uttering a bark. He loves all children, lets them pet him as long as they wish, and continuously wags his little nub of a tail. He has learned all of his commands quicker than any other dog in his class and we are on our way to becoming a CGC (Canine Good Citizen) with the goal of visiting rest homes and hospices. I had never had a Corgi before; now I can't imagine having anything else. He is loving, smart, very funny and energetic without being overbearing. Who could ask for more?
