Which dog breed is right for you?
The Pembroke Welsh Corgi originated in Pembrokeshire, Wales, around the 10th century — brought by Flemish weavers and refined into an agile cattle-herding dog. These low-set, athletic dogs stand 10 to 12 inches tall and weigh 25 to 30 pounds, with surprisingly powerful legs and a deep chest for their compact frame. Their medium-length, weather-resistant double coat comes in red, sable, fawn, or black and tan, often with characteristic white markings.
Pembroke Welsh Corgis are bold, outgoing, and surprisingly athletic — combining the work ethic of a herding dog with the affectionate nature of a devoted companion. They are intelligent and eager to please, making them highly trainable, and they typically adore children and other pets in the household. Their herding instinct may lead them to nip at heels during play, a behavior that should be redirected early through training.

The Yorkshire Terrier was developed in the mid-19th century in the English counties of Yorkshire and Lancashire by working-class weavers who bred small terriers to catch rats in textile mills and coal mines. Despite their current status as a glamorous toy breed, these feisty dogs retain every bit of their terrier courage in a tiny 7-pound, 7-to-8-inch frame. Their signature floor-length, silky coat is steel blue on the body and rich golden tan on the head and legs — a single-layer coat that grows continuously and is remarkably similar to human hair in texture.
Yorkshire Terriers are bold, confident, and fiercely loyal — they carry themselves with a self-importance that far exceeds their diminutive stature, never hesitating to challenge dogs ten times their size. They are deeply attached to their owners and can be wonderful companions for adults and older children, though their small size and feisty temperament make them a poor fit for rough play with toddlers. Yorkies are intelligent, curious, and entertaining, bringing big-dog energy and attitude to the smallest package in the terrier world.
Yorkshire Terriers prove that the best things truly come in small packages — find your Yorkie on Puplister.
