Hope this video is helpful for those considering getting a Corgi! Those of you who are already Corgi owners - did you find these facts relatable? 😂
Yes very relatable! Can you link that red toy in the video? It looks like you can stick a bone in it? I need this for my corgi. She ate a remote yesterday 😂 she’s absolutely like a child. And sneaky bc she stole and destroyed 2 pairs of slippers in 1 week lol
@@kellie1617 We made a whole video about this toy hack! czcams.com/video/jLojSKA2X-s/video.html
Definitely relatable, especially their sneaky personalities! My corgi is only 7 months old but she is FAR from cuddly. The only times I get anything close to cuddles is when we’re “hugging” but she’s just attacking my hair bun haha. I will say her face is very very expressive, like more expressive than usual. She’s got these crazy bug eyes that I love😂 on a side note, when did your corgi reach adult weight? My girl is barely 18lbs and she’s long but not bulky like that, so I’m just wondering :)
@@kellie1617 😂😂Oh my. You have your hands full, don't you?😂🐕😂
😂😂😂Oh my goodness... I wish I'd seen this 12 yrs ago... I actually have a chigi but the corgi personality is definitely the dominant in him... When you mentioned the "infamous side eye," I almost fell over: I had no idea this was a breed trait...Piolo is always giving me the side eye when he's mad at me or embarrassed by me😂😂 Now I understand why he would "referee" my other dogs. He was actually trying to herd them when they'd run crazy... Thank you so much for sharing this 💕🐕😂
The irony of the lazy Corgi laying on the couch while she's going on and on about work ethic.....hilarious!!!
Probably because she has properly exercised her before recording. As long as they are well exercised or mentally stimulated corgis are actually super chill
@@Moosethemountaineer that plus chibi has hip displacia, even after surgery I'm sure it can be uncomfortable to run around a lot
🤣
"Corgis have no notion of personal space"... mine is literally laying on my head while I'm watching 🤣
Gods, my Joey will just launch himself at me with such a force, I have bruises everywhere xD
I once woke up from breathing problem due to our girl's decision to sleep right on my throat
Corgi cat is a thing. Our Chester is always launching himself up and downstairs (bad for his spine, we know) to include furniture. He'll jump up and park his kiester on the top backrest portion of the couch and just balance-chill there. Then he'll try to sidle over or climb on our shoulders like a parrot. A heavy 27 pound furry loaf on our shoulders, lol.
😍
My Fred does that lol. I call him my little barnacle boy lol
Our corgi does the quite whine to get our attention too. Even when my eyes are closed I can feel her hovering me.
The corgi hover is real
Mine does too lol she crys for attention
emwng corgi are some ask dog boxer
I have awaken so many times to quiet whines or oofs from Moose wanting to go on his morning walkie lol
The corgi whine is legendary.
"Corgis love to work."
Corgi: 😴
Corgis are my favorite. 🥰
ah yes the corgi side-eye haha, our corgi is very sassy and dramatic, we get the side-eye all the time 😂
😂🤪😂
Tension from the side-eye! 👀
We call the side-eye the "Moby Dick eye" because he looks like the great white whale striking fear into the hearts of all who behold him!
I got my first corgi in 1982. I have had a total of 7 corgis. I currently have a 5 yr old tri female and a 15 yr old red/white rescue
Corgi/terrier mix. I love the breed and can’t imagine my house without one. In my opinion they are the perfect dog for me. Shedding can be a problem but the joy I get from them far outweighs any cons.❤
Having a Corgi for almost 14 years was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. These little guys are sweet, smart, and fun, but absolutely not for pushovers. Corgis are incredibly perceptive which makes them next-level smart. Yes, they absolutely want your approval if that gets them what they want, but they'll test the rules in every way you can think of (and many you won't) if they think they can get away with it. Corgis that know you're as smart and perceptive as they are will respect you. Just remember, when it comes to discipline, these dogs were bred to herd cattle. Set boundaries, be clear, and use positive reinforcement over punishment; they will not back down from a bully.
I guess you like dog hair in your food…
@@iishyxvietxboyii1that was random lol do they shed a lot?
Oh man. My corgi is so cuddly. He actually pretends to nurse and kneeds when you cuddle with him. He is also the biggest pudding pop I've ever seen, everything scares him then he comes to me crying. There is a whole dramatic episode of him crying and me telling him it's ok. He actually sounds like he's sobbing and ranting to me.
We have had 5 corgis and only one has not been a cuddler. Our 5 month old tri loves to cuddle. We have found all of our corgis to be very adaptable but they are also strong willed. As a corgi owner you must be consistent, loving but firm at times so they know you are head of their pack. Corgis love their walks and you should really walk them several times each day. Ours gets walked 3 times a day and you would think he wore a watch because he can tell you when it is time to walk and when it is time to eat. They are great with our grandchildren! Love them!
Very true! They definitely need a strong-willed and consistent human. Thanks for watching our video!
So true. Mine is the same. Total clock watcher
My Corgi, Reggie, is a 100% cuddler, when he wants to, when he is done with me he just moves away. Food: TOTAL food slut. Reggie, as well as the other two Corgi's we had is very sensitive, and protective. When my wife was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, Reggie would not leave her side, and was very protective when the hospice people would come, he would check them out, but not leave the room. When she passed, he lost his appetite, and became very depressed, just sits in his chair staring out the window waiting for her to come home. It is so heartbreaking. Sorry to go on about this, but we are still trying to get over our loss. He loved doggie day care, so I will have to take him there at least couple times a week to try to get him back to some form of of normality.
Something about Corgi's that was not mentioned is they SHED, constantly, all of those double coated little guys do this, and you will forever be vacuuming, sweeping and brushing Corgi fur off of everything, so, be warned. But to me it is a small price to pay to have, in my opinion, such a great little friend.
Hugs to you for your loss💕
BEST BREED EVER KNOWN TO MAN!
I definitely agree with the community part. I took my dog to a horse show to get acclimated and every single person we met took a picture with him and wanted to know if he had an Instagram.
Sneaky ninja is right. my boy loves to dig, when I call him out he immediately stops but just runs to grab a toy so that he can act like he is playing with it over the hole as he keeps digging underneath 🤦♀️
Yes my corgi loves meeting new people way more than meeting other dogs! He’s only seven months and is a black headed tri. Ever since the day I brought him home he has been the most cuddliest puppy ever! He craves cuddles and attention! But he is my only dog as of now so my boyfriend and I have him spoiled!
So great that you have a cuddly pup! Thanks for watching our video 🧡
If you think corgis are obsessed with food, you never had a LAB!
My brothers Newfoundland only does things for food. He knows what they want but won't do it without food or treats.
My girlfriend has a corgi, and he is a very picky eater and it’s hilarious. He’ll drop lots of human foods he dislikes and if I try to teach him something with a treat, he gives up and walks away if he can’t immediately figure out how to get the food! He is a very stubborn dude.
Totally right about their intuition for bad things. Mine went nuts one walk, and it was odd enough for me to follow. We found an older teen guy with a little crying girl going down a trail that I knew led to nowhere. We followed, because it looked wrong in every way. We walked awhile, and the guy finally turned around... we followed them back to the apartment complex, where the girl ran in another direction. We followed her to make sure she got home, but I am sure my corgi legit thwarted something really bad. I miss him every day.
My corgi is SUPER cuddly. He is honestly the most cuddly dog I have ever met/had.
My corgi is actually a corgi x rottweiler. He's so cuddly and so food driven. He'll eat till he's so so round like a balloon (not intentionally fed him this much, he got into his food and ate like 85%).
Hes also so talkative and makes different noises for different things, and kinda does a super low woof when he wants to go out for wees at night.
Hes so cuddly though and sleeps in the bed under the covers with us.
I love him so much and couldn't see my life without him anymore.
i plan on getting a corgi as a emotional support or service dog (depending on what the doctor says when i go see one in a few weeks) and i’ve always loved them and this video helped me so much!!
Our Corgi, Gotrek, is really cuddly. He's 10 weeks old now and we have to be really consistent with him. Breeder said that he was the most intelligent and cunning puppy in his litter and we started learning selfcontrol right away when we bring him home. Now he's a little calmer - we have him about a week so he's starting to learn some rules in our house. This weekend we are going for the first walks after vaccines (still have to be one done, but we dont have to let go of socialization. We only have to remember that he can't play with other unknown dogs). Maybe this calms him more (ofc walks with running and learning - both phisical and mental stimulation is obligatory for this lovely croquette)
@Taylor Moore Certified breeder - but i'm form Poland.
My corgi is cuddly in his own way, he will lie on my feet when I'm cooking or working but doesn't like to really cuddle on the couch or bed or to be picked up. He does sometimes like to lie next to us with his butt touching us tho :')
Literally everything you mentioned applies to my Corgi. He is also very cuddly which wins everyone’s hearts because he rolls over for belly rubs to complete strangers. Bossy, vocal, active, the most food obsessed dog I’ve ever met, ridiculously smart, thinks he knows best(never knew before how opinionated a dog could be). It can drive me crazy but I’m just hooked.
Our corgi is so sweet and cuddly but definitely also has a mind of her own. Those low growls you mentioned, we call grumbling! She is always grumbling about something 😂
My corgi is totally cuddly! But if shes busy playing or is hyped she doesn’t wanna be touched, she wants to do what shes doing. But as soon as shes tired she wants to cuddle sooo bad! Your corgi is literally 100% my corgi’s personality twin haha!
Chibi rolls her 👀 while u talked about not overfeeding corgis
She thinks it's fake news 😂
We have a 2 1/2 year old Corgi, our first dog. He has always loved to cuddle and even climb in our lap, even though he is getting a bit big to be a lap dog! ;) We can relate to a Corgi’s routine. My husband works from home and finishes right about 5pm. Oliver will start hovering and may start whining to let us know that it is Dinner Time! Even though they don’t recommend Corgies as a first dog, we love our Oliver so much and couldn’t be happier!
Corgis are such fun! They have very different personalities, but are always very self-aware! Our Rusty was ball crazy. He would play fetch 24/7, if you wanted to. Gwen would watch the ball and give you the look... you threw it, you fetch it! LOL! Gwen was a Queen and she knew it... the entire vet office would come to a halt whenever she went there, to pay her homage! She used to give a single bark and Gus would run to and fro, trying to figure out what she was barking about... Gwen would have the most satisfied smug smile on her face! Gus was our lover boy. He wanted you to be always with in his sight and preferably with a paw touching. He did not want to be picked up or sit on your lap, but just be by your side. Corgis are the best!!
I watched this months after unfortunately losing a best companion, guardian ever; definitely not said lightly. My, DixieBell wanted to please you and guide you into a safe, happy and positive place. All our pet friends are special but I can’t help a Corgi is especially divine. Of course this is not to take away from all my other loved ones I’ve been blessed to experience. Simply, they’ll read your heart and protect your best interest.
I’m reading this after losing one of my babies, Nami, last week, and am in tears now. It hurts so much to lose our stubby little best friends. I’m sorry for your loss. 💙💙
You basically described my corgi, Atlas. He’s a 5 months tricolor puppy, who has a lot of energy and personality. He loves talking and communicating, definitely tells us when he wants/likes/dislikes something. He can eat anything that is on his reach. We have to be very careful about it. His diet consists of raw food and organic treats, some of those made by my wife herself. His sense of personal space is inexistent and the closest he is to our face, the happiest he is. He is the biggest fiddler ever. We take naps together all the time and he loves when it is play time. Completely obsessed with chasing tennis balls. Oh, and he loves humans too. At the dog park he goes to everyone’s legs to get pets. Little attention whore 🤣 I love him so much!
I was laughing the whole time watching this. My corgi does a lot of these things and it was funny seeing that other corgis do it to.😎
I have the loveliest little mutt puppy, and I recently found out she is 1/8th corgi. This is so funny, because she gives us those side eyes!! It's so cute to see where she gets it from
Corgis can be vocal when they see anything or hear anything, so we taught ours to 'boof' instead of barking indoors. He couldn't control himself when we weren't in the same room, but at least he knew to 'boof' when we were around.
MIne is not a cuddler at allll... but I just cuddle her until she gives up and just lies there. 'Are you happy now mom?' 😂
I was watching the whole time Chidi lying there. So cute!
Just subscribed! Getting a new Corgi in 2 days. I cant wait! Thanks for the helpful info. I will be following your advice😍
Ive had Corgis for over 30 years and at this time I don't own one and its so upsetting. All my Corgis thru the years have been the best dogs I've ever had
Loyal unconditional love smart . I use to show horses and was always around horse shoes and at that time nobody had onr. I feel bringing my dogs to horse shows and people seeing how great and funny they wete inspired alot of horse people to own one. I could yell alot of f
Funny storys abouy my dogs. Now that were retired I can't afford to purchase a Corgi and my life feels empty. I have tears in my eyes right now just missing my dogs right now it makes me so sad. Your dogs are beautiful. And your so right about them if you might know anyone I could find a male puppie itvdoesnt have to be registered I just need one again. Sincerely Grace Coats from Oklahoma
👍💛🐎😍🐎😍💛💜💜😜
I have a corgi that im selling
@@ironladychihorsechemaboss3255 where do you live ? What state.
the intro is sooo good. the music and the vibe is great
I might get a corgi, and this video helps a lot! Thank you so much! Love your channel!
Our corgi, Gigi, really likes being hugged and cuddled
Our corgi is a fan of personal space. She prefers her own bed, often sleeps behind the chair during the day, and god forbid you try to touch her with your foot or pet her when she’s sleeping. But when she’s in a cuddly mood, it’s so so sweet :) Then she climbs into a beanbag with me or falls asleep with her head in my lap. It’s better than sitting in front of a fireplace.
BTW, we live in the north, and her fur is just amazing in the winter. She prefers to stay outside in the snow all day long (if only we didn’t have to go home!)
Our corgi is a cuddle bun, and doesn't care about personal space. We love him. He's a blue merle cardigan welsh boy. The previous boy wasn't a fan of cuddles but I still miss him
best advice was the routine, so important! my hours recently changed but Zoe has adapted very well! Your pup is adorable!
I love our corgi, my corgi name is Boba he is 16months old and he is always full of energy.
Is that him in your profile picture? He looks bright and energetic!
🥰 Boba is such a cute name 😍😍😌
I fostered a friend’s pup, it was a fun experience.
Ahhh loved the video. Everything is so true. These corgs are hilarious and so precious. ❤ One of mine is a cuddle bug and the other is annoyed when cuddles too long. Hehe!
Thank you for sharing. She’s beautiful! I can’t wait to get my own Corgi. They are so genuinely unique
Well, I think I need a corgi now. Especially for the routine thing to keep ME in check 😂
I'm definitely getting a Corgi.
Everything is sooo accurate! We have had our Corgi since July, she was 2 1/2 months and all that you said is totally true.
Although ours is not that cuddlish, she loves to play and she demands for scratchings.
Thanks and greetings from Germany!
My Snoopy is super chill. Love going out and easy going. Makes my life a lot easier....
Great vid!
The veggie/strawberry part 😫😫😫💗💗💗💗 adorable!!!
Your video is spot on, only forgot to mention the constant SHEDDING !! LOL
SO TRUE - and, my corgis have always been so cuddly too!
I have owned four Corgis, and I 1000% agree with this video. This information is spot on, for anyone doing Corgi research. As far as the snuggliness, yep, Corgis will trample all over your personal space. And they’re smarter than all of us. Really. They know things.
Very entertaining and informative look at life with a Corgi. I've been owned by Corgis for almost 40 years (& 20+ years as a dog trainer), and I agree with almost everything in this video. As noted in the video, there's variation between individuals and every Corgi has her own personality. But you've given prospective and new Corgi owners a great snapshot of what it's like to have a Corgi in your family -- and sharing your life with a Corgi (or 2!) will keep you laughing. As a trainer, my 2 favorite breeds to work with were Corgis and Goldens.
My corgi is a picky eater. He doesn’t often fetch, but loves chasing lasers and remote control cars and drones.
He likes to cuddle for short periods...sometimes he just wants a hug and a kiss. He likes being cradled like a baby for a couple minutes when I get home. He will climb up on me and lick my ear to get my attention if I’m working or gaming, which he knows I hate but he does it anyways because it’s effective. Lol. He talks to me when he wants to go on walks or to play with my neighbor’s dogs. He is an extrovert that loves meeting people and dogs.
I’ve had lots of dogs, but never one with so much personality, smarts and charm.
Chowder is the most cuddly dog out there too haha. He even likes hugs!
Corgis are so sassy and crazy, but are amazing dogs! I love my corgi so much 🥰
Your videos seem really professional for 1.7k subscribers! Keep up the good work :)
Our Penny is cuddly. Voices her issues. Herds our two cats.
My corgi Boba is always giving me side eye when I have to discipline him to not bark at every little thing. They are so loving and protective too haha. When I hold my nephew or the kids jump on me, my corgi has to make sure they don't hurt me. It's sweet but they can be over protective lol. We are so blessed and your video really helps! Thank you for sharing!
Corgis are cute and they always have a huge smile to make you happi :)
haha the side eye,
love ur video!!!
Yes thank you. Very well done.
Thank you so much for sharing. I love cute corgies but really didnt know what they were like. I'll get one when I have time to spend with one.
Oh my gosh, I can totally relate to all these points! My corgi is so driven by food and feisty 😂😂
My grandparents have two corgis. One is super food motivated and loves attention! The other is super high energy and loves to play! Love this!💛
My corgi sook sue turned 12 this past saturday. I love her...!
I've had two over the years (not at the same time) and it was odd how similar they were in personality. Both of them hated being held as pups but got to be cuddlers later on. In fact it wasn't until they were full grown that they began to appreciate belly rubs.
Our corgi is 9 months old and he can be cuddly when he wants too lol 😂 he is quite sneaky and definitely talks to us!
Haha I really could relate with everything up to the cuddly part. 😂 our corgi Bink is 6 months old right now and he’s so overly into other dogs and really just comes up to play but other than that he’s really easy socially with people as well so mYbe it will come with age. He likes the attention but rarey comes up to just cuddle, but if he does he sticks around for a long time. Really enjoyed the video ❤️
Yay, you hit 1k subscribers! Love your pups a lot
Thanks so much ❤️❤️❤️🤗
Awesome video! Corgis are the BEST!!! We've had two, and both were great. The first was a "cuddler" but we got him when he was a puppy, while we rescued the second at age 8. Another thing I'd add is that they are great with children - given their breeding tendencies, they are extremely protective of small children. All of the the points you raise are on the money, and your corgi is a real cutie!
Corgi community is the best!!! My Milo is definitely a cuddly corgi 😊
Yesss ! All of this yes lol we got our first corgi finally after begging for one for years! Lol yes she only wants Cuddles when SHE wants it usually when she's tired or just waking up!
Oh girl fantastic video.Could not be better.You have almost all the aspects of the corgi personality covered.Hehe.
Haha thank you!
Oh my goodness 😍 I'm obsessed with corgis, I hope to one day be able to have one as a companion ❤️
So adorable! I don't have Corgis but 4 dogs of various breeds. One of which is a Chow mix and she does the licking on the furniture including the dog beds.
Ahh I follow you on IG and love that you have a channel!!
This is hilarious. Almost identical to Theta, my Corgi. The only difference would be the cuddle factor. She’s super cuddly when she wants to be. I used to call her a cat/dog because she would go off and do her own thing. Or climb on my and be like “Hooman, cuddles now”. Which all feeds into “they know what they want and go for it” 😂😂. This is an extremely accurate description 💯!!
Our corgi mix is cuddly. Everything you’ve said so far is true. He is very smart and trainable.
She’s sleeping in the background! Too cute!b!
I had a corgi ! She was totally awesome 🙌🙌⭐️☀️🤙👏
So Pure!
Minnie is suuuuuper cuddly and loud lol. She loves to howl/sing
We got 2 female corgi’s. The first one doesnt cuddle at all… she just wants to be close but just out of reach, the other one would cuddle all day long if she could. Love them both!
I am getting ready to buy another. My boy Archibald is 7. Best breed ever! Touched my soul,made my life better. Thank you!!!
I’ve recently the pleasure of rescuing my first
“rescue dog”. His name is Buddy and he’s a corgi/basenji mix. I had no idea what I was in for at the time, now I know. I’ve adopted a stubborn ninja.. lol
Thanks for the info
We have two of them brother and sister....they shed like crazy but they are bundles of fun.
I love my little corgi, her name’s Chloe! When she plays with her sister, she moves so fast!
Just recently lost my 12-year-old Corgi to cancer and she was the light of my life! I’ve had lots of dogs in my life, but she was the best. In spite of some common issues, I’m sure I will get another Pembroke Corgi when I am ready. Great videos!
Our Corgi Watson is very vocal and VERY cuddly. He is absolutely loves carrots and his rubber chicken squeaker toy. He is such a daddy’s boy.
Everything you've said is true. Absolutely true, 100%.
I have two corgis. The younger one was always extremely cuddly from the time I got him. The other was always too on-the-go to cuddle unless she was SUPER tired and it's only as she's reaching 11 or 12 years old that she's starting to snuggle up to me on the sofa. So that's pretty good support for 50/50 cuddly/not cuddly. :D
Haha glad to hear we hit the mark! Thanks for watching our video and taking the time to leave a comment :)
This was spot on. My corgi is all of those things except he is not into vegetables. But he loves grass and eats it every day. He is NOT cuddly! But that’s ok. He makes me laugh and is quite particular about how I pet him and where and when.
I just signed up for the disapproving corgis subreddit after hearing about the fb group from this video so thank you!! (I’m not on fb)
My corgi, Dexter is very cuddly when he feels cuddly, but when he is done he is done! He is a master of the side eye! And ypu hot the nail on the head when you said they have no concept of personal space! Great video! Thsnks!
So much of this is true for my ruger dog he’s such a good boy and parkour is life for him 😂
Spanky loved to be told he was doing a good job!
My corgi Eevee does all this!!! Even the routine with food and the ninja sneaky! She even every now and then try’s to eat her brothers food when he hasn’t eaten yet. Lol but wished you spoke more about how to maintain their shedding, my corgi is the first dog that sheds and I still haven’t accepted I’ll always have dog hair everywhere...
Also agreed about the community! We are always connected! And my corgi Eevee is not cuddly but she is turning 3 now and is cuddly towards me but not with my husband, but she choose when she wants to cuddle.
