Cardigan Welsh Corgi

The Cardigan Welsh Corgi is an ancient breed of herding dog, originating in Wales over 3,000 years ago.

Bred to herd cattle, sheep, and horses, these small but mighty dogs were prized for their intelligence, strength, and loyalty.

They have a thick double coat that comes in a variety of colors, including red, sable, brindle, and black and tan.

The Cardigan Welsh Corgi is an active, intelligent breed that loves to play and explore.

They are loyal and devoted companions, making them excellent family pets.

With proper training and socialization, the Cardigan Welsh Corgi can be a loving, well-behaved addition to any home.
