I contacted a few breeders from my the closest corgi club (which is the Golden Gate Corgi Club) and they have all agreed that they pretty much sell their pups for the same price and adults for the same price, the couple of breeders I contacted didn't know of any adults and could only offer me puppies which were $1000. I have been approved to adopt a corgi at a rescue in Bakersfield and now I am just waiting for them to tell me when I can go down and meet him. Hopefully next Friday or Saturday. He is ADORABLE and I can't wait to meet him!

Hi Wendy, Jack, Lucy & Ricky-Rafa :)

Teddy & Adella are doing well, thank you! I did join because of Tasha & Katie. I am writing out a tribute to them & will post it soon :) along with pictures :)

Channelling Rafa, the Sequel:

I have a photo of the two of them together.   They're ours.

After researching more about puppy training, I feel more empowered to handle a puppy. 

Thank you for sharing your experience. The mixed comments I seem to be getting are from corgi owners who say most corgis are great family dogs, and then there is a rescue on pf that has almost every corgi listed as no kids, a local rescue (not corgi rescue) also stated no kids, so it all felt like mixed messages. However, we have applied with Middle TN Corgi Rescue and also are researching the possibility of a puppy. Not to mention, I'm obsessively checking cl, pf, petango, and ebay classifieds. :) 

Yes, I have been looking at the links you gave me. We did not adopt the rescue yet. We have decided to wait until the end of Feb., however, if she is still available then, we will probably try to meet her. I do not think our family is ready for a puppy, so I think getting a puppy from a breeder is out. I do have some concern about the conflicting things I seem to be reading about if corgis are good with kids...

Thank you so much! I really appreciate your help. There is a rescued Pembroke here in TN that we are considering. She is older (7), and I am trying to figure out what would be the best option for our family. We have young children (5 & 6) who are timid around dogs. Not sure if puppy exuberance would be the best or not. However, not sure that a 7 yo dog would tolerate child exuberance (even if it is not directed toward the dog...)....

Here is a photo of the two of them together!  Stella and Buddha.

My daughter went to England this summer with her school.  While there she was introduced to the breed.  She also found out that the Queen of England had 4 of them.  Well if they are good enough for the Queen a corgi would be good enough for my princess.  LOL

Thank you! I am learning right now, and would love to have the breeder contact info. I have never gotten a dog from a breeder, so the process and research is all new to me. I would value any insight you have. Thanks!

Thanks and yes I moved here from Austria.  I love the weather here in Florida.

I never thought I would be a Corgi lover. I have always had big dogs but Stella stole our heart.  I look forward to being a part of what looks like to be a wonderful Corgi family. :)

Yeah, I'm on petfinder everyday just searching but none of the pups seem to be available close by in the Southern California area. 

I took your advice and checked out the official website at http://www.pwccsc.org/rescue.html and it seems that if you do apply to rescue a corgi, they match you up with one that is 3 years or older. Although  it does say the majority of them are that age, I suppose its still worth a try applying for a pup. Thank you for the response! I am very jealous of the two amazing corgis you have.

That photo is just perfect, you can read so much into it

THey are quite closely related as the Red Grouse was his grand sire. Yet interestingly, she looks much more like my Sophie whose sire was Ninacorte Starcaster, a US import.

If you ever come to GB, do come and stay - I think we would have quite a lot in common and you could meet my two in person.

LOL, I just made sure my photos were the right widthxheight and saved at a high resolution, then hoped for the best when I sent them in!  Not all of them were good enough either.  On the initial list Sam put out, I had sent in 10-15 photos and I saw that only 5 or 6 had actually made it.  No idea why some did and why some didn't, I just kept sending them in and hoping for the best lol.  And yes, I am a stickler for details as well.  I always try to read up on and research a subject as much as possible

Looking forward to the biting stage being over :)  She likes to attack the back of my leg and herd me.  I need to get her started in obedience class.  Hopefully that will help with the rough house play.
