Breed Standards

I have learned a lot since joining this site. Sadly, I have come to realize that Snickers, although a purebred, is not breed standard. I cannot brush another dog's worth of fur from her coat, she seldom FRAPs, and does not have the long tongue necessary for proper derping. I will count my blessings that she is a corgi in every other way. She is bossy, noisy, and is obsessed with food and chasing or herding things. She is smart, funny and with do ANYTHING for food. Update: After watching the NoNoNo movie http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=wsDg6_oHzjU I think she fits right in with other corgum.

Comment by Lucy & Ricky (Wendy/Jack ) on January 1, 2012 at 8:16pm: I enjoyed reading your reassuring response to Snickmom. We had the pleasure of spending an afternoon with her, Snickers, and her son & girlfriend. Lots of people assume that Lucy is fluffy. She does have a luxurious coat but thankfully doesn't shed year-round. Her breeder calls it a "glamor" coat. He should know as he's one of the writers of the Pembroke Welsh Corgi Standard.
