He's a teenager,that's all :).Besides,who cares about the show "breed standards" unless something is health related.I loved Sarah C's pics.Great example.

@ Suzi Zeus & Valentine :

I do feel like I see some Cardigan in him, especially in the pic of Bartleby featured on here, his legs look quite "bowed", which is more like Cardis. Ultimately, its not a huge deal to me if he's 1/4 Cardigan and Pem or even something else since he's such a geat little guy, but obviously I'm very curious to know! I suspect he might be part bunny with his hopping ways and big ears. Oh and he loves carrots.

He looks pure to me. Not real "typey" but he may grow into himself as he gets older.

I agree with Jane. He looks just like a half grown corgi. Didi looked like this:

At 5 months. You can see the similarities. Chest isn't deep enough, coat is all... whatever is going on there. Nose is in that between stage.

Just a year later she looked like this

Suddenly a corgi, right? And she's only gotten fuller since then.

Probably he's all corgi, just young.

As others have said, he looks to be purebred but not breed standard. People don't realize corgis come in other colors than the typical red and white. They also don't realize corgis don't have to be grossly obese. I ALWAYS have people asking me what kind of mix franklin is  because he is a fit tri color. As a pup he was gangly and underweight. I could feed him a 30 pound bag of food and he'd still be skinny! Now at 2 1/2 he has put on a lot of weight and filled out. Sometimes a skinny corgi also gives the impression of being "taller".  He is very cute!

He is also cute as the dickens!!

First of all he is in what I call the "space alien/bear butt stage"  all corgis that I have seen go through this. Their ears are too big for their bodies and their bodies are rather akward and don't always follow where their brain is telling them to go.His sable coloring is maybe throwing people off too? At this point many things have to "catch up" and as others have said...he won't be mature till at least 2. Sage is on the slender side at 18 months but I know she will fill out, it took her mom till she was 2 also. Will he be a little off....maybe-maybe not but it's way too soon to tell. Enjoy your young one! I would say he's a purebred!

My Sparty is pretty far from the Breed Standard too but he is all corgi and has AKC papers. He just has relatives named Stubs and Shorty! He is still my baby and I love him. I consider him a Blue Collar Corgi. Breeders focus on certain things to produce a beautiful and healthy dog but the less carefully bred dogs can be just as fun to live with.
