Cardigan Welsh Corgis remain energetic and in need of physical activity well into their grown-up dog years so it is important to establish a routine for them early on as puppies. Socialize your Cardi often, allowing for the puppy to become accustomed to different people and situations. Take your Cardi to dog training classes to meet other breeds. (As a cattle herding, farm dog, your Cardi might try to round-up other animals, so watch out!) As much as Cardis need to be stimulated physically, they need it mentally, too. This will help avoid any accidents caused by boredom.
Healthy puppies will have clean ears with no signs of discharge, redness, inflammation or pungent odour. If the puppy is aggressively scratching or pawing their ear, tilting their head or excessively flipping their head, it may also be a sign of discomfort. Breeds with floppy ears are more prone to infection or disease.
