#1 There Are Two Types of Corgis
Although Cardigan Welsh Corgis and Pembroke Corgis look alike, they've actually considered to be two totally different breeds from two different ancestors.
#2 They’re the Stuff of Welsh Legends
Some say—if you look very closely—you can still see the marks of a fairy's saddle around the shoulders in a Pembroke Corgi's coat.
#3 Corgi Translates to “Dwarf Dog”
There's some debate around the meaning of "Corgi," but there are two main theories out there:
- The Welsh word "cor" means "to gather," while "gi" translates to "dog." Makes a lot of sense for a breed that's known for its champion herding skills, right?
- Alternately, the word "cor" translates to "dwarf" in Welsh—and, again, "gi" translates to "dog."
