Also known as Corgi
A short-legged herder with big confidence and a fluffy rear
Bred in Wales to drive cattle by nipping at their heels, the Pembroke is bright, bold and surprisingly athletic on its short legs. It sheds heavily, tends to gain weight, and needs its long back protected from jumping.

This breed needs about 60 minutes of activity a day. Around 3 sitter-led sessions a week keeps that routine going when work or travel gets in the way.

Yes, a great deal, all year round. Regular brushing and a good vacuum are part of life with a Corgi.
They are quite vocal and use their voice to alert and to herd. Early training and enough activity keep it under control.
Generally yes, but they may try to herd running children by nipping at their heels. Teach both dog and child calm interaction.
