Pooka is the trimmest corgi I've ever seen, and a lot of people have told me the same thing. She is obsessed with playing fetch and running around, and is only now, beginning to finish her meals (still off and on). We also have a huge backyard, which she goes out in often.
Therefore, I only take her on a walk for fun, not for exercise. Also for training, to behave and TRY to meet people, and not run out in the street. And if she was crated throughout the day, more than normal, I like to take her out to apologize. Really, only ends up 1-2 times a week.
We now have a husky living with us, and her owner takes her out twice a day.
Recently, Pooka has gotten very anxious when they leave, crying and whining and pouting and staring out the window, and just making me very sad. I don't know if this is because she really likes walks, or if she just has separation anxiety, not wanting them to leave.
Another thing is that she's learning how to "talk" more as she gets older, so it might also be that.
Do I need to be taking her on more walks? How should I deal with this? Currently I just try to distract her with a happy voice, and asking her to do tricks, and telling her No when she whines.
Silly puppy...
