Dylan also gets a much brisker walk with DH.

Molsen will bark on command ... But you have to ask him to say please. Miller bless his little heart, can't figure that one out, but loves to kiss on command. He even kisses when you are doing something to him which he does not like (nail trims, etc)

I voted yes to kisses which Sassy will always give you kisses anytime you ask and sometimes when you don't ask. Since we camp a lot I taught her to not bark with the command "No maam", and my husband now has her where if she is inside the house or camper, etc. he will tell her to use her inside voice and she will just barely woff, it is hilarious.

My corgi Bear barks when I tell him his dad is home, around 10:15p.m. at night he starts watching for him to come home from work

Jesse, the one year old barks hysterically for at least a minute or two when I ask him something and the answer is "yes". He does this with his front end down and the tush up. Usually to the questions whether he wants to go on a walk or go outside to go potty. If the answer is no he just keeps quiet. (Though that is when I ask him. When he needs to go potty and the door to the kennel area is closed due to cold weather, rain, etc. he will just come up to me, sit down and give me a stare-out until I get it. He learned that from my older corgi.) Reba, my 13 year old just keeps quiet most of the time. If your question was whether you can get your corgi to bark by the human saying "bark", then neither of my corgis will do this. And yes, Jesse, sits patiently next to the door waiting for my son to come home at the general time he returns from work too. And forget the whole idea of being ignored when you walk in, Jesse demands to be acknowledged with some love and patting by whomever enters the house.

Taylor talks it up when he considers it is lunch time or dinner time or when he disagrees with me about what happens next during agility training/competition.

We had 50 responses to the poll and this constitutes the poll having reached a reasonable number of responses.

Ih New Zealand where the questions were part of a canine owners questionaire which received 4000 responses, here is how Kiwis voted in comparison to Go Corgi members:
Have you trained your dog to talk/bark on demand: 29% yes (NZ), 40% yes (Go Corgi).
Have you taught your dog to kiss on request: 18% yes (NZ), 56% yes (Go Corgi).

So, obviously Corgi owners are more inclined to teach there dogs to be chatty when desired and their relationship with their cute little cuddly Corgi is much more of a love affair than the average owners has with their dogs.
