About Me:
I have a 4 and a half year old Corgi named Ein who is very well traveled. He's lived in USA, Sydney, Australia and now Italy. He lights up my life everyday.
Welsh Corgi Breeder?
No
About My Corgi(s):
Ein, like "Einstein" was named after the Corgi character in Cowboy Bebop and looks just like him. Ein is 5 years old, from Bakersfield, CA. He loves chasing other dogs that chase balls, rolling in the green grass, digging his head in the snow, rolling on his back to show his belly and mostly he loves treats. Ein has Lyme disease and fights everyday to have a normal happy healthy life.
I have:
Pembroke

My Sweet Corgi is becoming Aggressive. What to do?

Posted on October 6, 2010 at 7:34am 5 Comments

I am writing because recently (in the past 4 months), my non-aggressive & very submissive 4 year old Pembroke has become aggressive. I do not know how to get this under control. There are 2 events that I believe led to this behavior. 1. I was separated from my dog for 3 months while taking care of a Visa situation. My husband took care of the dog while I was away but this is when the first of the aggression started. He is only mean to other dogs. He first growls at them and then goes for… Continue

HI Erika,
I know, corgis are such tough little guys and they don't complain. Sidney hiked miles with me in the hills and his only complaint was stopping to rest. He never liked to get up on his hind legs (to jump up on me or to put his paws on my knee to be petted), I now know that it probably hurt him to do it.

Here are some other members whose corgi's have the problem:

Please keep me updated and let me know if you have any questions. It'll be ok :)

Hi Erika, Sidney is only three years old. In September, he was just walking down the hall behind me when he yelped in extreme pain, and would not put any weight on his back left leg. We called the vet and he was certain it was just a sprain. The next morning it was no better, so we took him in. Again, they thought it was a sprain, but decided to take x-rays to be sure. Then they found that his hips were in very bad shape, and what was causing the pain was that the left side had dislocated. They said they could not just pop it back into place because it would just pop out again. Our choices were the surgery, or medicate/crate him for the rest of his life. It was no choice, we had to do the surgery to give him a shot at a happy normal life.
I sure hope Ein has better news. If it is the front legs, it might be elbow dysplasia. Someone else on this site is dealing with that right now. Ugh, these things are heartwrenching. Please let me know what they tell you. I'll keep fingers crossed for good news.

Welcome to you both! I loved the picture of Ein sleeping by the water with his head resting on possibly a pillow? Very cute.
