Most small dogs are obnoxious little yap factories with Napoleon complexes.

Corgis, on the other hand are lovable and chill.

They’re not really small, they just have stumpy legs.

Well, one of mine is small.

But they are the best dogs, that part is true.

Not all. Our neighbors Corgi has a Napoleon Complex. Their previous one was cool as could be.

Used to breed Pembroke Welsh Corgis so I do like them but, they are patrol freaks, they will wear a path around the edges of your yard as they tirelessly check for intruders.

Mini schnauzers is best. Chill, smart, no shedding, protective, good with kids.

Corgis always remind me of those ugly, minotaur-like women you see from time to time. They are even worse than the chicks who look like their arms are floating away from their body due to huge lats....except it's fat. They usually have broad shoulders and tapered asses.

Corgis are pretty cool for small dogs.

A buddy had one with separation anxiety

if you left the kitchen and went downstairs it would bark at the kitchen door in a loop

To each their own, I'm partial to Beagles.

He has a napoleon complex all right, but not yappy. He’s a certified bad ass.

Corgis have a crazy tendency when they breed to just create miniature versions of whatever they breed with.

If they're good enough for the Queen of England...

Grew up with them. My parents for decades mostly had corgis. I clearly remember Max and Happy working together to herd my toddler daughter around their backyard.

My wife begged me for a corgi. We ended up with BulletTheCorgi. He’s a goofy little clown with two modes: off and MAXIMUM. Very obedient if treatos are involved, otherwise he dgaf what you want.

Second pic is him waiting for his bday steak.

Wrong. Terriers are best small dogs. Smart, athletic and do a great job of removing vermin from the yard. Very good watch dogs as well.

I so want a corgi, valhund or Isle of Imaal.

I have a corgi and boston terrier both great small dogs.

I love my 100lb lab/shepherd mutt, her only duty is to scare the shit out of unfamiliar people who come up to the house and she's proud of it. Unfortunately at some point she will not be with us. She does not play well with any other dog(good with cats though), so she's an only dog.

However, this is the exact combination me and the Mrs are thinking for the next 'round'.

A Corgi is the only small dog I would ever have. I’ve had the chance to play with a few and they were all great critters. I smile every time I see one.

Our original Corgi

Agreed.

They're so graceful sometimes too!

ETA:

She really was just the goofiest dog.

Corgis are cool. Mine is 1/2 corgi (pug on the other half), but he's all Corgi in temperament....loves to herd, chase, and act like he's 900% bigger than he is.

Yep, ours is always "on duty". Because they're herding dogs, he's happiest when we're all together in one room. Incredibly smart dog.

Corgis tend to bark a lot. I like Dorgis more than Corgis (created by the Queen when she bred her Corgi with a Dachshund).

But Cavalier King Charles Spaniel's are at the top of the small dog list.

You'd think some of these were just Corgis in costumes. This little dude looks like he takes no shit.

Someone in here already posted a lab-corgi mix, which is one of the more common (non-accidental) crosses.

Only dog we couldn't house break, and I've had dogs for 40 years, usually more than one at a time.
When the Rottweiler, who is the easiest dog we've ever had, passes we probably need to get something smaller because we're getting older. Maybe a Rottweiler Corgi cross? Definitely not another blue heeler, that. Drives me crazy.

Doxies are one of the best small dogs.

Picture from when he was small.
Skipper will attack anybody or anything thing that try to harm any kid in the house. May not like the kids but he will defend them.

Barks when he hears people walking up the steps.

Spoiled rotten by my middle daughter.
He is her dog.
