Looking to rehome my baby (temporary to possibly permanent?)

Well, I wanted to visit here first since I figured I'd find genuine Corgi lovers - I hate doing this but I feel out of options:

My ex and I have recently split up after four years, and we had my corgi and two cats. He is not taking any of the animals, leaving me with all three. Recently unemployed, I'm looking to stay with either family or a friend I know, but my family are not animals lovers at all and won't let me stay with the dog, and the friend has a small apartment, so he can only do either the cats or the dog. I feel like I know I could find my corgi baby a good home much easier than the cats, and I absolutely do not want any of them to end up in a shelter.

She is fixed, up to date on shots, smart as heck, loves children (all ages), dogs, and people. I've never seen her get rough or angry with anyone. She loves to play with my cats, though they don't really like her. She has some potty training issues - but she is crate trained, as long as you take her out or have a door for her to go through, she does really well with few accidents. She loves going on walks/runs, and squeaker toys.

I'd love to find someone who's in the Vegas area and plans on staying here so I can visit with her and possibly take her back in when my living situation can accommodate all my animals. If you or you know someone looking for a corgi in the valley, please let me know. I would like to do a sort of interview and see where she would be staying to make sure she's going to a good home.

I'm Twinkie and Lilly's mom, Michell. I might be able to help find a foster home for Sophie.

Did you get her from a good breeder? If so, most have a "right of first refusal" clause that legally binds you to let them know before placing the dog anywhere.

I actually adopted her from a shelter, so no breeders involved - though I do know where she came from after tracking down some of her history.

So sad. I hope you find her someone who can help and will love her like you do. I know that if I was in the area and was able to take her in for you, I would. I know how hard it is to have to do this.. Hugs from me and Kota

Our names are Mark and Jessica, we live in Las Vegas and we have one male PWC (he is 4 years old and really easy going, loves everyone/everything). We would love to help you and Sophie, we have been thinking Willie would appreciate a friend to play with (even if it is temporary).

Hello!
Sorry it took a while to get back, I'm in the process of moving from Henderson to Summerlin - Sophie went to a very nice lady last night with two big corgis, if anything changes and she can't keep her, I will keep you in mind. Thanks so much!
