You really do have to look hard to find a Corgi in the local humane society shelter here too, compared with say border collies, labs and terrier type dogs. I looked at adoption first myself.
On the guard dog topic, I also wanted a guard dog but the more I researched Corgi's I came to the conclusion they bark to protect rather than bite.
Although Ein is still a puppy, he is showing loyalty to me and the family and barking at things that he sees are 'out of place'. I wouldn't expect him to defend me in a confrontation once he is older, but it seems like his personality is heading in that direction where he would. Maybe that is something I would like to believe. But I also think it depends from dog to dog no matter which breed you choose on their personality, training and genetics on if they make a great "guard dog" who would defend.
