What are the ways to choose a Corgi puppy? To choose a good Corgi, you must first make sure you like it well, so before choosing, you need to know what style of Corgi you like best. You might as well go through Corgi’s The breed, coat color, character, etc. will determine the Corgi puppy you want to choose.

1. What kind of breed do you like?

Corgis are divided into two categories. Generally, the ones we see are the Pembroke Welsh Corgis (the same kind we are talking about), and the other ones are Cady and Corgis (more on this later if you are interested). Chat), first find out which type of Corgi you prefer, because although these two types of Corgi are both called Corgis, they are completely different in terms of quality, appearance and appearance.

To put it simply, Pembroke is more in line with the Chinese aesthetics and is "cuter". It sheds hair, is relatively cheap, and has a bit of a noisy quality. Cady is bigger, does not shed hair, and has a quiet style. However, the style does not conform to the Chinese aesthetic and is "not cute" (it is actually very cute), and the price is more expensive.

2. What’s your favorite coat color?

There are several color combinations of Pembroke Corgis. We often hear the words: yellow and white two-color, yellow-headed three-color, black-headed three-color, sable, cream, black and white.

Yellow and white: the genetically most likely coat color, the rarest, yellow and white, nothing to say

Yellow head three colors: The head is mainly yellow, the adult dog's body looks like wearing a black vest, the hands and feet are yellow, and there is a black line from the corner of the eye to the ear, but the puppy has not completely shed its hair. The body looks more black.

Black head three colors: The head is mainly black and has a relatively obvious feature. The first two thick yellow patches on the eyes are similar to the small eyebrows. The black hair on the legs of most people with three colors of Aconitum will not go away after they reach adulthood. Identify the three colors of yellow head.

Mink color: There are two-color mink and three-color mink. Originally it was also three-color, but with less black hair.

Cream color: light yellow, not white. Cream color is not a color classification, but the yellow fur on the base is lighter.

Black and white: It turns out that the yellow hair is relatively small, not the real black and white.

But in fact these are folk opinions, and although they are correct, the more academically correct description of coat color is as follows:

Note 1: The younger you are, the harder it is to tell the color of your coat. When you’re just born, it’s almost all black, and the details of Corgi’s coat color will gradually change.

Note 2: There is no more expensive coat color, they are all universal. Take a look at the appearance of Aijia.

Zhu Shen Xin 3: Different coat colors have obvious characteristics of being heavier and heavier, and how big they grow.How many pounds, please check the condition and feeding

Drawing heart 4: If the expression is a little off, it means that this little Corgi has a genetic flaw and has genes for invisible diseases. What is disqualification, we will talk about it in a moment.

3. What kind of personality do you like? Every puppy has a different personality. It will make a big difference whether you like quiet or bright. However, the younger they are, the harder it is to tell their character, and even corgis with particularly large characters still have some annoying habits (such as shouting at the door), and these still have to be dealt with Later exercises come. So how can you identify the personality of a puppy when you meet it for the first time?

There is a way to try. Pick up the dog, then sit down and turn it over against you. The belly is forward and the back is against your belly. This posture is used to observe the puppy's reaction. Does it turn over on its own immediately, waits for a while, or does not turn over on its own initiative?

Immediately turn it over: the alpha wolf character is not very docile, but will have his own ideas and be more realistic.

After waiting for a while, turn over: thinker's character, able to assess the situation, this kind of dog will be smarter, and may also be naughty. Turn over on its own initiative: a dog that is easy to be docile, although it can be naughty sometimes, but control it It's easy to get up.

Note 1: The smaller it is, the harder it is to distinguish it. Fortunately, it takes 2 and a half to 3 months to examine its quality.

Summary 2: Personality will also change due to some events, such as being brave and becoming weak. These are related to the subsequent socialization of the dog and the owner.

4. Do you want your descendant to be a common pet?

Generally speaking, everyone has two requirements when looking for a dog. Most of them hope to find a companion who is like a family member. Others also hope that their dog can appear in the dog breed competition and win some glory. If you fall into the second category, you need to look for a dog with a birth certificate or pedigree certificate. The parents and grandparents of these dogs can be traced for their refined and strong genes and the achievements of their ancestors in the competition. These dogs can also be traced. It will be relatively expensive. If you are a person with the first requirement, it doesn’t matter the birth certificate or pedigree certificate, just find a Corgi that you like. If you keep a pet at home, there is no need to be strict about training and competition.

Shen Xin 1: Single-blooded and non-bloodline dogs are common, and both are pet-grade. Double-blooded dogs are the real bloodline dogs.

5. What is the meaning of a disqualified dog?

Is the price universal? The reason for disqualification is that it loses the qualification for competition (physical competition). Why does it lose the qualification for competition? Because the disqualified dog does not meet the standards of the dog breed.

Why should we conform to the breed standards? Because the standards determine whether the dog has inherited a known healthy gene. Why should we judge whether a known healthy gene is inherited? Because the dog breed can develop well in this way.

So what is a disqualification? As long as it does not meet the Corgi breed standards, it is called a disqualification. Disqualification is a genetic mutation in purebred dogs, not a string. To name a few rare disqualifications: blue eyes, white ears, pirate face, white hair on the back (over the shoulders), cryptorchidism, unmatched frame ratio, etc. The most common disqualification is the color, or the standard is like this, you can refer to it: white cannot appear except for the nose line, corners of the mouth, top of the head, neck, belly, legs, and the tip of the tail (the tail cannot be seen), otherwise All are disqualified.

So if there is a disqualified dog, what is the usual method of operating a regular kennel? Sign a sterilization agreement and sell it at a low price. Why are disqualified dogs not recommended to grow? See the reasons at the top of this article.

6. Are the tees the standard for Jia Keji?

The tee is a concept hyped by the Chinese dog market. If there is no white color on the Corgi's head, it does not mean that the product is good or bad. The less white color, the less likely it will be disqualified. The Queen of England has dozens of corgis, but only one fits the aesthetics of the Chinese dog market, and the rest are not Tee Tong. Many champion dogs in the competition do not have so-called three-way links. Will the price of three-way links be high? This is a concept created by the dog market. The real Jia Keji depends on the size and proportion of the frame.
