Don't stay away from nuts or refrain from giving your Corgi nuts. Just because one or two types are toxic or potentially toxic to dogs doesn't at all mean that others are dangerous/damaging to health. The vast types of nuts are perfectly ok for dogs and indeed wonderfully beneficial eg brazil, pine, pea etc. No type of nut is related to another type.

Now this is interesting. Only last Sunday i learnt that an owner of two beautiful pem Corgis gives her Corgis (aged three and one), macadamia nuts daily not realising that small amounts are toxic to dogs. No apparant harm to the Corgis. Macadamia nuts are expensive in New Zealand. She won't be giving her Corgis these nuts in future and it will save her money.
