From the akc standard:
Size, Proportion, Substance
Height (from ground to highest point on withers) should be 10 to 12 inches. Weight is in proportion to size, not exceeding 30 pounds for dogs and 28 pounds for bitches. In show condition, the preferred medium- sized dog of correct bone and substance will weigh approximately 27 pounds, with bitches approximately 25 pounds. Obvious oversized specimens and diminutive toylike individuals must be very severely penalized. Proportions--Moderately long and low. The distance from the withers to the base of the tail should be approximately 40 percent greater than the distance from the withers to the ground. Substance--Should not be so low and heavy-boned as to appear coarse or overdone, nor so light-boned as to appear racy.
I know that when we were doing our research before getting a corgi, most places list 25 pounds as average. (With a range of 20-30 pounds.) Our girls are 22 pounds at a year and a half. Their momma was 22 pounds (which our breeder told us was on the small side).
there's at least one other thread on this site on this topic too: http://www.mycorgi.com/forum/topics/1150197:Topic:113314?commentId=...
