WELSH CORGI (Cardigan and Pembroke) Puppy Dogs

 WELSH CORGI. Cardigan & Pembroke

Even when the two Corgies are related with each other, they evolved in a relatively independent way for centuries. The Cardigan is possibly the most ancient. Good farm dogs, they became popular in the United Kingdom because they had the sympathy of the royal family. Dog Toys

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Cardigan, quieter than the Pembroke, has a long tail and an elongated body. It is also called the yard dog because its length is exactly equivalent to welsh yard (approximately a meter). The Pembroke is smaller. They are sociable and even the Pembroke might be more outgoing, the Cardie is not shy at all. They like nibbling, but if socialized and trained since very young, they can be good pets, often patient with children.
