Welsh Corgi
Medium
Great Britain
The Welsh Corgi breed of dog originated in Wales. They are believed to be descended from Swedish Vallhund dogs that came to Wales with the Vikings.
One of the best features about a Welsh Corgi is his personality. A big dog in a small package, his temperament is based upon his original life as a companion and valuable farm helper and guardian, all of which make him an adaptable and outstanding housepet. The Welsh Corgi is a dog who wants to be truly involved with his family; his family should WANT to become involved with him too. He is full of fun and will shower that family with devotion and sensible affection, although some Corgis withhold their favors from strangers until they get to know them better. Caring for his people (including children) comes naturally to this intelligent, alert and responsible dog. Because they're expressive and trainable, Welsh Corgis have also been seen in several recent motion pictures.
