The Royal Corgis
Hi guys, it’s me again! As you know, we are getting back to the new normality and also the
animals. This time we are going to talk about a particular dog breed: Corgi.
The Pembroke Welsh Corgi is a small native breed from the United Kingdom. It is a small
type of herding dog, and it’s considered one of the oldest dogs in the UK. There is another
similar breed Cardigan Welsh Corgi is larger both in weight and height.
This info is so curious because if you want to identify them, you need to know that
Cardigans have tails; Pembrokes do not.
The meaning CORGI according to the Oxford English Dictionary, cor means dwarf and gi
means dog so
CORGI MEANS “DWARF DOG” IN WELSH.
The Pembroke Welsh Corgi is very famous because of The Queen Elizabeth the Second, she
has had more than 30 Pembroke in her lifetime!
The Queen met her first corgi when she was 7, The King George VI brought a male dog
home from a kennel in 1933. It’s name was Dookie, the dog was an immediate hit with the
future queen and her sister, Princess Margaret.
