One more time and not meaning to be a wet blanket at all, HOWEVER, the requests for Disney to release Little Dog Lost have been going for YEARS and YEARS, so long in fact Beta was even a format it was requested on. This has been going on before Go Corgi was even a blip in anyone's thoughts and the credentials of the lists that have memberships far outnumbering GoCorgi's are just a little more impressive. An endorsement from GoCorgi, sorry but I suspect the response from any powers to be at Disney would be trying to hide the snickering. To believe GC has any power or influence in the corgi world at large is merely deluding one's self and an ego check might be in order. That's not belittling GC at all, just reality.

Somehow the idea of Mainland China being huge for corgis in the near future doesn't excite me at all. Frankly, I don't see how anyone who professes such a deep commitment to the breed(s), their care throughout all stages of their lives and responsible ownership could find a bright spot in this. Asian sources of corgis are the equivalent of the commercial kennels in the US, those places which supply pet shops. Asian breeders don't have any other choices than to raise puppies like live stock due to governmental regulations and restrictions. So to see this market opening up and the conditions and backgrounds the dogs will be coming from, sorry, I see nothing bright about this future for the breed(s).
