While it’s hard to imagine that any Corgi would
be left abandoned or homeless, unfortunately, this
is a common occurrence in our area. In some cases,
owners are forced to give up their dogs and do not
wish to see them put into a shelter situation.
Many of the stories of dogs taken in and placed are quite heartwarming;
however, not all rescue stories have a happy ending. The dogs in rescue
are not those bred by responsible, reputable breeders. They are those purchased
from “casual” breeders, or pet shops, who generally make no provisions
for owners to return the dogs if the dog has genetic physical or behavioral
problems, or if the owner simply cannot keep them. In fact, 60% of all dogs,
any breed, turned into shelters fit this same description. This is why we feel
it is very important, when looking for a Corgi, to find a reputable breeder
who will take full responsibility for any dog they produce, and require spay/neuter
contracts on all puppies placed as pets.
