Some Corgi owners on Go Corgi seem to think Corgis can be tough at pulling until they get into the groove with their handler. Well Corgis at 30-odd pounds (when fully grown) are pretty tame pullers and Siberian Huskies would be very nearly at the opposite end of the pulling scale. If you haven't lost an arm with a sled dog, you aint going to lose one with a Corgi.
Usually Corgis will tell youi when strange smells and noises come into their property - so they are good watch dogs in that respect. And their sight and hearing is above average.
Corgis are easily trainable but are inclined to have a mind of their own on occasions. However they are very people aware unlike Huskies and Malamutes and the like and thus are usually very responsive. They are very aware of their family circle and act to reign in and look after and look out for, all these people.
