Pembroke Welsh Corgi

The Pembroke Welsh Corgi is an awesome family dog. They are great with kids, very playful, and obedient. They are not big dogs and they usually weigh anywhere from 24 to 30 pounds depending on the sex of the dog. From the top of their shoulders to their feet they are 10 to 12 inches tall. They are originally used as a herding breed that originated in Prembrokeshire, Whales. These dogs have been favored by British royalty for over seventy years. They all have short tails and it is very unusual to see one with a tail.

This one here in the picture is Sophie. She is very affectionate and loves to play fetch. She is not aggressive at all and in fact she will definitely lick you to death. Sophie is my buddy and loves laying down watching tv with you although she does take up the whole bed. She so badly wants to think she is a lap dog even though she isnt. When I first brought home my son from the hospital she wasn't sure if she liked him or not but after being around him more and more she loves him. She is very protective of my son and licks him every chance she gets.

If you are unsure what kind of dog to get when you are looking, the Pembroke Welsh Corgi is always a good choice.
