the Pembroke Welsh Corgi is the oldest
breed of herding dog and has three
characteristics that make him great at
doing his job they were actually bred to
her cattle and you can imagine how cool
that would be because very short little
dogs they go around they would nip at
the cattle and sheep to perfect
the Pembroke Welsh Corgis low body is
often twice as long as his height but
don’t let those little legs fool you
they’re pretty tough little dogs get it
and they live remarkably fast and are
very agile or a dog with such short legs
his double coat helped him herd in all
weather conditions the undercoat is
short and thick and the outer coat is
coarser and longer with a serious flaw

exaggerated feathering on the ears chest
legs and feet the Fluffy’s cannot be
used for breeding or showing if not born
with a natural bob the Pembroke Welsh
Corgis tail is often cut shorter or
docked cattle farmers docked the tails
to prevent injuries to the dogs two
breeds share the name Welsh Corgi
