I've read lots of posts here that say some Corgi's don't fill out until they are two years. (I've also been concerned that Charlie's very lightweight compared to average, but the vet said he is in great shape, he's just a little guy.)

If Boots is eating, pooping, playing, frapping and napping normally then I'd expect nothing is wrong. Much better to have a skinny, healthy Corgi than to have obesity probs with them.
I agree, if he's acting normal, then probably nothiing to worry about. And it's quite common for a corgi to be thin at the age of your boy. In fact many corgis do not mature until they are almost 4.

He doesn't need to "pack on the pounds". It's better for him to mature as he's susposed to and if he's thin for awhile that's ok too. (Teenage stage.)
