A Guide To Choosing The Perfect Corgi Puppies
06 Feb 2010
A Corgi puppy is a great pet for young and old alike. They are gentle, caring, loyal, and have great herding and guarding instincts to keep you or your child safe. Their are two separate breeds of Corgi’s; the Cardigan Corgi and the Pembroke Corgi. Whichever one you choose you will get a great friend.
Choosing a responsible breeder always comes before the choice of an individual puppy. Make sure that the kennels are clean, and the puppies are well-socialized. Also make sure that the adults are well- tempered and well-behaved. The adults are a great example of how the puppy may turn out. The breeder should be willing and able to answer questions, guarantee the puppy, and be willing to take the puppy back if it doesn’t work out.
The puppy that you ultimately do choose should be healthy looking and happy. The puppy should have no runny nose or eyes, have clean ears, skin and fur. Corgi puppies are great for hanging out with you while you relax, but they also like to be active. Taking your puppy out side to play ball or Frisbee for at least 20 minutes a day will make him a happy dog.
One of the most readily available reasons to take care and research the breeder you buy from is disease. Corgis are known for hip dysplasia and other joint problems. It is vet recommended to have your Corgi x rayed to check for these problems. Hip dysplasia is not the only problem to be on the lookout for, progressive retinal atrophy, spinal disc problems, autoimmune diseases, and cataracts can crop up. Always have your Corgi checked by a vet on a regular basis to get on top of these problems as the come up, if they do.
A Corgis weight can be a problem. If you are not careful they can put on weight very fast. They love food and if they do overeat the risk of joint problems increases. Make sure to feed a balanced diet at routine times.
