Corgis
You will notice that many of our rescue Corgis are not available to homes with small children. Corgis are a herding breed. Each herding breed has their own distinct method of herding. Corgis nip at the heels of cattle, sheep, etc and bark when they herd. The instinct can be strong even though the majority of our dogs have not been trained to herd. They can nip at the heels of small children, and when excited may even jump up and nip. They are not vicious, very much the opposite; however, a child crawling on the floor or children running around the yard can trigger the herding instinct. What Corgi owners see as normal behavior for the breed, others may construe as biting. Not all Corgis have this instinct, but many do and we are careful when placing them. No matter what breed you choose, investigate the history of the breed. Corgis are "cute little dogs." They are also intelligent, active, affectionate, and real clowns. They are a breed for an experienced dog owner or a family open to learning how to live with a Corgi. Please email with any questions claireelizabeth@petssecondchance.org.
PLEASE before you consider adoption from any organization; remember that a dog or cat is a life time commitment. Corgis need lots of exercise, training, grooming, and most of all, love. Pets take patience and time. Pets can also be expensive. Routine medical care and a good diet can cost up to $500 per year. Adopting is not a decision to be made lightly.
Get involved with sports like agility, fly ball, herding, or rally obedience. It is great training and exercise for both you and your dog.
