A Corgi who is keen to get wet can swim very proficiently from two months.
I had Corgis who have been very strong swimmers, able to stay swimming in fairly quick flowing rivers for some considerable time and go back swimming time and again especially if they are in for a game of fetching a stick from way out into a river. I wouild never dream of puting a life jacket on them. Life jackets for dogs in New Zealand is almost unheard of anyway.

A friend has a new Pem Corgi pup and he loves swimming and is very good at it. He is super slim and undersized.

Without doubt, an overweight Corgi will not be able to swim up to their potential.
