How funny! They are all such different sizes. I like Chloe being petite. She is my little princess.

I just wanted to thank you guys again for the help.

I am so happy Chloe is back home. I didn't realize how much I missed her.

Chloe and Charlie are underweight according to the standard. I was actually expecting a dog within the PWC male standard between 25-30 lbs., but that's ok. I think he may gain another 5-6 lbs. (Or he could have a late growth spurt and end up at the low end of the range.)

Cindy's pups are Cardigans, which are heavier set than Pembrokes.

Glad to hear it! Charlie is the sweet boy light of my life. He makes me smile several times a day and I can't imagine not having him with me.

Do Corgis usually not like cats and are mean to other dogs. Are they only nice to other Corgis???

Do you think maybe she bit the other dog cuz she wouldn't play with her?

Please, someone help me with this....
Others have given you some good advice. But no I don't think she bit the other dog because she wouldn't play with her.

I think it's her age for one thing, if there's going to be trouble it usually starts between 12-18 mos.

Second, she might be coming in season. They can get quite crabby when they come in and during a season. You might have 3 weeks yet, so might be a good idea to see about getting her spayed right away.

As for the cat, my dogs are fine with my cats. Some corgis are and some like to chase them. You can teach a dog not to chase a cat, scold her every time she does it. It helps if the cat will stand up for herself too.

As for liking other dogs, the breed doesn't really matter. Some corgis like other dogs and some do not. You might have one that doesn't like other dogs. Or she just might not like other females.

Or it could be she's was taking advantage of an older dog, if she's an alpha wanna be she might want the position.

I'd keep her away from the other dog. Chances are she's not going to make up and play nice with this dog.

Oh no, I live the little guys. My house goes from an 80 lb GSD, okay back track that, 2000lb clydesdales, to the GSD, to the collies at 65-45 lbs then the cardigans with my oversized Moose at 40lbs to the pup at 20 lbs, the griffs are about 6 lbs and then my 5 lb pomeranian. My pemmie was 28 lbs soaking wet at 4 yrs old. There are days that my back can't take much over the griff size.

Average weights should be 25-34 lbs for a pem, 32-38 for a cardigan.
