Notes

There are no 'original' spitzes in Britain, and the spitz-like Corgis might have come to Wales with the Vikings. The word 'corgi' is believed to come from the Welsh 'cor ci' ('dwarf dog'). The modern Welsh breedname of the Pembroke is 'Ci Sodli', which means 'to nip', which is how these dog work when herding.

The Pembroke was not entered in shows until 1925, the same year that it was recognized. Since then it has recieved a lot of publicity, especially in the British royal house, where it was introduced in the 1930's.

The Pembroke Welsh Corgi should be low, powerful, robust and lively. The head is fox-like with a rather broad skull and slight stop. The muzzle should be shorter than the skull. The eyes have a lively expression. The ears are of medium size, erect and with rounded tips. The neck is rather long, the body of medium length with straight back and a deep chest set low between the legs, which should be short and straight in front, and well angulated in hind. The tail can be docked, bobbed or long, and a natural bob is most sought after. The coat is of medium length and straight with a thick undercoat.
