This is Kona. A Pembroke Welsh Corgi and the cutest best behaved dog I have ever met. She belongs to a friend of my brother who we stayed with on our road trip to San Francisco a few weeks ago and I seriously wanted to dog nap her. So now I want a corgi as well as a chihuahua and Italian greyhound.

As somebody else said, Corgis can be VERY territorial, have a bark that will pierce your skull, and can be stubborn as all fucking hell. They also love to chew. And they get bored, so be prepared to bend to his whims when he wants to play, or he'll start with the barking.

But.

They're also loyal little bastards, very loving, extremely smart, and provide countless hours of entertainment. Henry is constantly making me laugh out loud. And he's gone though all sorts of behaviors. He'll get into patterns, but only for awhile, and then he'll be doing something else. He's not just barky, he's got a wide vocal range. He actually used to talk to me when he was a pup, in that he'd growl and grumble and then wait for me to growl and grumble back at him. His food...he used to grab a mouthful and come into the living room and toss it on the floor, and then repeat. He doesn't do that anymore. Now, his big thing, is he finishes his food, walks into the bedroom, and belches. Like LOUD. So fucking funny. Very protective of my wife...both of us, actually. HAS to play when he wants to play. Will not take 'No' for an answer. Granted, that's gotta be partially shoddy dog rearing, but he's relentless. And when he wants you to feel bad? Snout on the ground and the saddest fucking eyes. Such a drama queen.

Basically, if you don't mind a dog that you have to invest a little more time and attention in than, say, a mutt, then definitely consider it. But it really is like having a damned child most of the time.
