Welsh Corgi

As reported by Dog Breed Journal, Corgis got their name from two welsh words that meant dwarf and dog.

Corgis originated in the United Kingdom.

The Pembroke Welsh Corgi gained its popularity over the Cardigan Welsh Corgi because Queen Elizabeth II preferred the Pembroke. The favored corgis had longer bodies, thick coats of fur, and some are born without a tail.

According to the Dog Breed Journal published in 2018, there are two different corgi breeds. One is called a Pembroke Welsh Corgi which is the younger breed as opposed to the Cardigan Welsh Corgi.

PetMD has vet approved health information for all aminals. Veterinarians have shown that Corgis can face some problems during their lifetime. Their lifespan is about 12-14 years depending. Due to their long bodies and short legs, Corgis tend to have spinal issues which also can give them hip problems in the future.
