The Welsh Corgi is a lively, protective and intelligent dog. The breed was originated in Wales where it was used as a herding dog. Since Corgis have such long,small bodies, they were able to roll out of the way when a cow tried to kick at them. Today, Corgis are used as companion and guard dogs. Corgis are very loyal and mild tempered dogs which makes them a great pet for all ages. Training is not very difficult with this breed as long as the owner makes it clear to them that they are the leader. Exercise is also not very difficult to manage for this breed. They can exercise themselves in the house so just a daily walk is required. Grooming is an easy job with these breeds because of their short coat. They shed twice a year. One con about these dogs is that they do tend to nip at peoples' heels if they aren't trained otherwise. Corgis do also have a natural instinct to protect their owners. This can be a very good thing as long as the owner trains teaches them that aggression is not needed nor acceptable in a household. Overall, the Corgi makes a great pet for a family for people who can train,exercise, and most importantly love him properly.
