So Michael, explain to me why when I arrived at my sister's yesterday and 3 year old blue merle Cardigan Mr. Bear came bounding to the fence to say HI!, he did a happy circle of "I'm glad to see you," lifted his leg on a nearby fence post and scratched the ground to leave "big" tracks - all in his greeting? Isn't that the same thing you are describing as a Pem "trait?" We want talk about the manner of greeting her Saint Bernard offered.

and also in your assessment that Pems are not also of a teckel background as part of their formation towards the modern Corgi.
IF the Teckel ancestory were common to both breeds, then why the extreme difference in phenotype/looks between Mon or his daughter Fancy and Rozavel Red Dragon for example? Now the Teckel background would have been introduced during the short time period when the interbreeding of the two breeds occurred, that I acknowledge. I can see more similarities in overall "looks" today between the two breeds, than in the early corgis.

Debbie
