Pembroke Welsh Corgis are great dogs and you will certainly enjoy their companionship. However, there are some things to consider before you buy a Pembroke Welsh Corgi. A potential Welsh Corgi owner should be aware of the breed's demands. A 15 years commitment should be positive experience for both you and your pet. Educate yourself on the upkeep and health of the breed. There are many informative books on dog care and training available. Think about what you expect your Corgi to do. Do you need a show or pet quality dog? Will other members of your family care for the pet when you are away? Will the dog be left unattended for long? Consider the time and expenses that will inevitably follow the purchase of the dog.
Visit as many breeders as you can and ask questions about their dogs and the breed's health concerns. When at the breeder's place, look at their puppies, and the parents. Breeders of quality dogs participate in a variety of other dog-related activities. They are obedience trials, tracking, conformation shows, and herding tests.
Responsible breeders have their sire and dam hips and eyes certified. Find out if the dogs have OFA or CERF documentation. The puppies should be started on a program of vaccinations and worming. Having looked through the pedigree, registration papers and medical certificates, watch each puppy to see if it is the type and temperament you are looking for. Buying Pembroke Welsh Corgis should be approached seriously, as it is about adding a new member to your family. Pembroke Welsh Corgis - Breeders Links
