Welsh Corgi

Nature's joy with heart. Welsh Corgis owe their popularity mainly to the fact that the Pembroke Corgi has been an inseparable part of the English royal family until recently. Alongside the Pembroke, which often has a short tail, the Welsh Corgi Cardigan is also a cheerful and adaptable companion. These breeds, classified as British herding dogs, were quite rare in our region in the past, but in recent years they have gained increasing popularity outside of Great Britain. This book provides everything you need to know about these wonderful dogs. The history, origin, and standards of both breeds are described and explained in detail. Understanding their nature and how to properly interact with these dogs, as well as information on care and health maintenance, is essential for successfully navigating daily life with a Corgi. A comprehensive chapter on color genetics explains how the many different recognized variations of coat colors come about. This information has not been found in German literature until now and is particularly important for breeders and anyone interested in preserving these ancient breeds. The book also covers club activities, the exhibition scene, and the breeding of these British herding dogs. Charming stories about the Corgi myth, wonderful photos, and informative graphics complete the work. The first German-language book about Welsh Corgis is a must-have for anyone interested in these not only royal dogs.
