<p>Julia....Max is excellent at sounding vicious. Corgis have a bark that is far bigger then they are. If someone comes into the house he will bark and dog their every step until I tell him to stop. He won't bite but if someone doesn't know him they aren't sure. That works for me. I wouldn't want a dog that I needed to worry about. I now have 4 pitbulls behind me. I can see they are very loving with their people and are good with the cocker spaniel and maltese that also live there but if…</p>

<p>I only want a dog to tell me if there is something I need to know. Someone at the door or that one of the cats is doing something they shouldn't. My previous corgi, Arnie, would bark when the phone rang which was wonderful for me being hearing impaired and I was vacuuming or in a room away from a phone. He was never taught that, he some how picked it up on his own. </p> I really hate it when someone…tag:mycorgi.com,2013-05-20:1150197:Comment:17534252013-05-20T00:21:43.832ZJuliahttp://mycorgi.com/profile/JuliaChurchill
<p>I really hate it when someone comes to me looking for a dog for "protection." I tell them that a dog that barks but doesn't look or act threatening is your best bet. Or do they want a dog who will be shot by an intruder/mugger? Or hit with that fireplace poker? A big voice, or a bad breed reputation combined with a good disposition is usually my recommendations. Just like those corgis you guys described.</p>

<p>When we were robbed last year, they kicked in our front door. They took all electronics and all our jewelry. But, as they left they stood the door back up so from the outside it looked normal. Thank God they did, because of course, it kept our furbabies inside! That was all I cared about. They could have what ever they wanted just leave my babies alone!!!!!!!</p>

<p>Someone below said it perfectly (aside from John Wolff!!!): you can replace everything but your corgi. Those wretched people probably did need to shut up your corgi. I know Tasha would drive any potential burglar bananas with her barking.... I am sorry for your experience and am so glad that your corgi is all right. Nan</p>

<p>I'm sure glad your little guy was safe. And of course, the thief had to lock him up because your corgi was trying to herd him about and organize the theft better.</p>

I thought this was going to be sad ending with corgi stolen too. Sorry about all your stuff, but thankful you and your dog are reunited. I would be angry about stuff, but cry about dog. Happy ending. And I hope the thieves get caught.

He'll just sit there from his crate or behind the baby gate and just have a puppy head tilt to his head.... almost saying "You let me out now? We play?"<br/><br/>I'm sure momo wouldn't do ANYTHING if a burglar came in. As long as the robber gives him treats and pets him, Momo will be like, "You're my new best friend! You can have ANYTHING you want."<br/><br/>smh smh.. LOL. <br/><br/>Honestly tho, i hope we NEVER get robbed. I may be interested in getting a LARGE dog just for that PROTECTION part in the future. </p>
