All of our dogs are spayed or neutered before placement, and placements are based on best home available, not first come - first served. For that reason, it's necessary to have an application from every person or family interested in adopting one of our dogs.

If you are not located in the Southeast, you may contact the rescue chairman of an affiliate club of the Pembroke Welsh Corgi Club of America via their website for information concerning a rescue in your area. For more information on Pembroke rescue in North and South Carolina, whether to adopt or to surrender a dog you have, please contact the .

To be considered for adoption, you MUST download the rescue adoption application, fill it out, and mail to Debbie Campbell, PPWCC Rescue Chairman, PO Box 1732, Liberty, NC 27298 in order to be placed on our rescue list. You may also copy the answers into an email and send it to the Rescue Information Coordinator, listed above.


These dogs are available for adoption


Monty was found wandering the streets of New Bern, NC, as a stray just before Thanksgiving 2011. While he did spend the holiday in the shelter, he had much to be thankful for in terms of a guardian angel at the shelter and two special ladies from the North Carolina Corgi Picnic group who not only watched after him, but also provided him transportation to our rescue program. He tested heartworm positive, so the month of December was spent putting some weight on and taking antibiotics to prepare him for his treatment. First treatment will be 1/23/12. When fully recovered from treatment, it will be time for his neutering. Monty's best age estimate is about two years old, yet he still has much puppy in his expression about him.

Contact if you would like to be considered as a forever home for Monty.







Jasmine
Eight-year-old Jasmine is looking for her forever home. She and her son, GP (see below), lost their former home when their owner suffered from severe medical issues. Personable, Jasmine is a typical bossy little corgi girl, always ready to express her opinion.

Contact if you would like to be considered as a forever home for Jasmine.







GP (Geep) is Jasmine's (see above) 4 to 5 year old son. This handsome red-headed tri boy is an outgoing fellow and enjoys everyone's company. He defers to Dam Jasmine, but likes to express his own opinions as often as possible.

Contact if you would like to be considered as a forever home for GP.







Tom was able to have a happy and safe Thanksgiving 2011 after he was pulled from the Charlotte-Mecklenberg Shelter by one of our volunteers. Estimated to be around three years of age, Tom is an energetic fellow that also likes the cuddle and snuggle moments. He can be a bit unsure about new things initially, but rebounds, taking things in corgi stride.

Contact if you would like to be considered as a forever home for Tom.







Roo and his sister Lucye came into rescue due to the failing health of their owner. A bouncy, energetic boy, he certainly lives up to his name. He can be independent, pushy, and tests limits compensating for a sometimes under-confident nature. He also still has a tendency to nip at the back of legs, a behavior we are continually working to correct. Obedience classes and consistent structure will aid in helping reach his full potential; agility and perhaps even some herding could also help direct and focus his energy and mind.

Roo will be celebrating his fourth birthday in February 2012. He is house and crate trained, neutered, current on vaccinations and heart worm preventative. He is good with other dogs. Due to his energy levels he will be a better match for homes with older children.

Contact if you would like to be considered as a forever home for Roo.



Rex
Eight year old Rex's owner was a casualty of the current economic times. Due to being unable financially to care for him in the manner she felt was needed and he deserved, she made the heartbreaking decision to surrender him to our rescue program. She had updated him with an annual veterinary physical, but he was still suffering from severe dermatitis from an allergy to fleas. As his smiling face shows, that problem has been resolved; his coat has come back in and we are even celebrating a bit of tufting.

Rex is a sweet affectionate boy that enjoys snuggling on the couch and is always happy to chase tennis balls. He can be good with other dogs and once had an Australian Cattle Dog pal. He is neutered, current on vaccinations and heart worm preventative, house and crate trained.

Contact if you would like to be considered as a forever home for Rex.



Shorty
Retro-styled boy Shorty just turned three in January 2012. His former owner was in the midst of moving and had left Shorty temporarily with her mother. As is more often than not the case with limit laws, animal control visited the mother, threatened action for being over the pet limit, leaving the owner in the position of having her dog taken to the kill shelter or turning him over to rescue.

Shorty is a sweet fellow that is in need of lots of time, attention, patience and training. He works hard at pleasing but is hindered by a short attention span. He tries very hard. Shorty is neutered, up to date on vaccinations and heartworm preventative, crate- and house-trained. Although he loves everyone and can be good with other dogs, his exuberance may be overwhelming to small children.

Contact if you would like to be considered as a forever home for Shorty.

THANK YOU
from the Palmetto Pembroke Welsh Corgi Club and its rescue associates!

Corgi People Are the ABSOLUTE BEST!!

We have known it, been witness to it, been a part of it, and have experienced it. Yet Corgi people still manage to surprise, overwhelm, and humble with their generosity and support. Such was the response to our request for donations to help with our boys' expenses for their heartworm treatment. Corgi friends, rescue pals, club members and forever homes of our rescues - THANK YOU for your wonderful generosity. Because of your help, dogs like Monty, who's starting heartworm treatment at the end of January, and former rescues like Jimmy, Scooter, and Carter will have healthy happy futures.

Winter is here, and while our intakes may slow down, we may still get in dogs which need extensive medical assistance, including treatment for heartworm. Donations are always appreciated and can be sent to either:

Janet Robinson
PPWCC-Treasurer
5950 Lake Wylie Road
Clover, SC 29710

OR

Debbie Campbell
PPWCC Rescue Chair

Lucye, Roo's sister (see above), will also be turning four in February 2012. This adorable one is full of corgi "princess-tude", making sure brother Roo and foster brother George understand all the attention should be hers. Energetic, busy Lucye also enjoys laps and cuddling.

She is spayed, current on vaccinations and heart worm preventative, house and crate trained.


Finn
Finian, aka Finn, will be celebrating his third birthday in January 2012. His first year was a rather unstable start for having been in several homes from Florida to North Carolina, even requiring treatment for heartworms. Finn finally did land in a wonderful home who tended to his veterinary needs and in which he enjoyed having treats baked just for him, traveling with his people and being a special part of the family. His owners were very upset to discover Finn was very uneasy, uncomfortable -- in essence, just not trustworthy around babies and toddlers when exposed to visiting young nephews and nieces. This was a disturbing revelation to the young couple who were planning to begin their family.

Resilient Finn is a happy, loving, playful guy, thanks, I believe, to the time and attention given to him in his last home. He can be okay with other dogs, is house- and crate-trained, current on vaccinations and heartworm preventative, as well as neutered. No homes with small children will be considered.
