Hi, I have a tough decision and hope you can help. We have a family of four: Two senior citizens, and a single mother with a 5-yr old. The environment is not conducive to a lot of activity in the home due to the setup, other than going up and down stairs. Outside there are wild animals (we're in the country) and we care for many wild cats (they stay outdoors but we feed them on the back porch). We also own a business which is attached to the home (living quarters are upstairs). Strangers are in and out of the parking lot and a dog will know they are in the building. I've read about the Corgi's nature to be around a few familiar people and bark at strangers. I read about the nipping behaviors and some aggressive tendencies with younger children. Also, given the business we don't have a regular schedule to be with the dog, so there would be periods of time where the Corgi would be alone (perhaps a few hours a night, other than 1-2 days off). Do they bark a lot? Are they okay being alone for a few hours a day? I read they need a lot of exercise but with two senior parents and a busy mom, I'm not sure how much running there would be, especially in the winter. Would anyone advice against us getting a Cardigan Welsh Corgi? Thank you for your help and insights. Lori
