Love these little doggies, as my Great Aunt used to say.... Corgi's are wonderful companions for all round everyday living. The Cardigan's fit very well with my lifestyle of being social, yet very well behaved, Super Smart, and humerous companions at the same time... Lowriders, heart and soul of the big/taller dogs just shorter legs. Which makes them easier to see through in your vechicle and to carry if you need to.
"Gwenna" Showing herding style for performance! Low to the ground, crouching position on the run.... Cardigans were bred for working livestock, this is the type of style we want in our Corgi's for all performance events...
Cardigan's differ from Pembrokes, first notice to the eye is that Cardigan's have a tail, think of the Cardigan sweater. My what big ears they have also, body structure on the front legs Cardigans turn out, as the Pem's are straight. Over the years, I personally have found that both the Cardigan and Pembroke Welsh Corgi's are calm natured, and obedient for my personal lifestyle. Both come in a variety of colors, they are a double coated breed so they do shed a bit during the change of seasons.
Walnut Creek has had Pembroke Welsh Corgi's in our family since the early 70's, in 2003 I got interested in the Cardigan Welsh Corgi's, since then I have retired my last Pembroke and now only have the Cardigan Welsh Corgi's. One of the first differences you see is the tail Pembroke's have their tails banned when new borns and Cardigan's are left natural... See video clip by Animal Planet for a bit more information on the differences, also most important is to read the AKC breed Standard at www.AKC.org

Wonderful website to see USA & International Cardigan Welsh Corgi's. Also loaded with information, and pictures of the breed. Walnut Creek is proud to have friends from all over the world, I am so impressed with this site and the great information about the breed I just had to share.
