With a very heavy heart i have to admit that my rescue of one year is not fitting into my existing pack. Christopher is an incredibly loving and well trained (many Rally and agility titles) little 6 year old neutered sable Corgi. He needs to be in a home as a single dog. He is very dog friendly and playful outside his home but inside the herding instincts kick in when there is excitement and he goes over the top. Christopher loves cats, would never hurt them but does love to chase them.



My ideal home would have no other dogs or cats, fenced yard, and an active family. I would not want him in a home that he will be left home alone all day (he could do it but I don't want that). I want him to on places with his family when possible.



Here are a list of his assets and it is a long one.



He loves children, will pull you too them.

He has tons of fun energy

He is like a shadow, follows you everywhere

He makes everyone laugh

He is in great shape - loves long hikes/walks.

He is very used to being in a barn around horses.

Once he is bonded with the family he can go off leash at beaches etc,

He is very healthy

He is trained in an invisible fence

He has been shown VERY successfully in Rally and agility

He is a great traveler

He is crate trained

Completely housebroken

Can sleep "in" on weekends

He goes to nursing homes and loves it there.



His weaknesses:

Herds other dogs indoors and gets nippy with them.

He will bark when people first come into the house out of excitement ( doesn't last long)

When he is super excited he will nibble on a sleeve

He loves to chase cats.

He does not like his feet or rear end touched in excess, will growl but not bite

He takes a while to give a ball or toy back

He has an off and on limp if doing too much agility, why we stopped (fine now)

When he has a chew bone he will hide so you don't take it

Can be bratty (not aggressive) if he gets hold of something he shouldn't have (sock :-).

Barks when he hears the phone ring.

Hates garage door openers. - odd little dog!!





Let me know if you have any questions!!
