Cardigan Welsh Corgi
Small Size
Moderate shedding
Not good for first time owners
The Cardigan is the older, longer-bodied of the two Welsh Corgis (the Pembroke is the royal one!). They probably developed from spitz types brought to Wales with the Vikings.
FACT SHEET
Someone who wants a dog that's full of sass and character, and who knows how to train and manage a nippy heeler.
The tardy. These dogs know how to hurry their herd - with a quick nip at the heels.
