Pembroke vs. Cardigan Welsh Corgi

Pembroke vs. Cardigan Welsh Corgi

The Corgi most people know is the Pembroke Welsh Corgi, but the Cardigan Welsh Corgi is the older, longer-bodied cousin — they split into two breeds in the 1930s. Pembrokes are smaller, finer-faced, often tail-less, and the more popular; Cardigans have round ears, a longer body, and trace back some 3,000 years. Both are agile, food-motivated herders that need exercise and training to keep from nipping heels.
