| The Cardigan Welsh
Corgi is an active, long lived breed. Although they are only 1 foot tall,
they should not be considered a small dog, as they weigh from 25 - 50 lbs.
The coat is harsh with a dense undercoat that is shed twice a year. They
should be brushed regularly about twice a week to remove dead undercoat.
Colours are brindle & white (brownish with black stripes), black & white,
blue merle (mottled blue-gray-black), sable, red or tri-colour (black &
white with tan or brindle markings). Eyes must be brown except in blue merles
which may have blue eyes. The Cardigan does well in the city or country,
and can even live in an apartment if the owners exercise it regularly. They
enjoy playing retrieving games and this makes them a good companion for
children. The Cardigan is a very intelligent breed and is very easily trained,
and enjoys activities such as flyball and agility. |
