I agree with what Kerry said! He is a very handsome young lad!

when do you guys think he will be ready for hiking small mountains? as of right now he CAN DO a 2 hour walk but he has never come out in good shape. one he was dehydrated then we tried again a month later and he came up limp. 45 minuts seems to be the limit right now

How do I always end up with the bigger ones? lol My first corgi was 31 pounds full grown. My corgi now, Copper, is now 5 months old and about 25 pounds. I fed both of them Iams and no table scraps. Pooh was muscular and not overweight at all as I had him on Iams weight control te he. Copper isn't even pudgy. I don't get it. Anyone else have a corgi over 25 pounds?

My female is a retired show dog and she's 27 to 28 pounds in good condition, so she's a the very top of the standard (I think she's actually almost an inch too tall).

My male is very big. I don't know what he weighs now, but if I guessed I'd say about 37 or 38 pounds and you can see the outline of his ribcage. He's just plain big, yet his littermate sister won a specialty show. So go figure....

Goodness, I just weighed him on my home scale using the "hold him and subtract my weight" method and I caught him at 32 pounds! I'll have to take him to the vet for a proper weigh-in but I think I need to up his food a bit because he is looking a bit thin. He's much more active now we have a second dog.

Oh good. Pooh only ever looked thin to me in one picture but he was mostly muscle as he was ALWAYS active and going EVERYWHERE with me lol It's good to know I'm not the only one with a chunka butt as I call mine lol

Riley is almost 7months...he weighs 30 pounds and is a lean mean corgi machine. He does get lots of exercise. Riley is also big boned and would look thin if he weighed less.
