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


Annie
We'd like to introduce a true "Daddy's Girl", Annie Lucille. Annie is one little corgi girl that knows how to wrap men around her little white paw. Her favorite things include, scritches, a lap in which to happily watch sports with her guy and a pile of toys. "Mom's" are good too, especially at feeding time and when passing out treats or scritches.

Annie is young, estimated around two years of age. She does not play well with others of the four-footed persuasion, so needs to be an only pet (fish would be okay). A fenced yard would be best for her. She is more of a home body, doesn't particularly care for car ride outings, but does enjoy leashed walks about the neighborhood. She would also do better with children age ten and over.

Annie is up to date on her vaccinations, microchipped and crate trained.

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



Pending
Missy's name might be short for mischievous as she is certainly an entertaining girl! Due to her elderly owner's failing health, six year old Missy came to our rescue program. She is a happy, opinionated, food-motivated, playful, curious, and active bundle of corgi joy!

Missy does have two special needs. First, she is overweight and strides are being made in her dieting program, which will need to be continued. Second, she has an autoimmune condition called Pemphigus Foliaceus. This is the reason for the lack of pigment on her nose in her picture. Her pemphigus has responded well to treatment and has not impacted her quality of or zest for life in the least. It is a treatable, manageable condition with appropriate attention and care.

Missy loves toys, gets along well with other dogs and is always ready to go for a walk or a car ride. She is up to date on her vaccinations, spayed, crate trained, reliable in the house and always can bring a smile to one's face.

Contact if you are interested in learning more about this special girl!


Digger is a red and white male five years of age. His personality reflects the part of the breed's description that explains corgis can be stubborn and headstrong; but he also read the part that describes corgis as being playful, energetic and enjoying the company of people. Digger can be rather vocal, enjoys walks and playing fetch, and spends time outside when he's not playing with buddies racing the fenceline.

His high energy and reckless abandonment for things in his way when he's running would not make him a good choice for families with young children.

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

Suri   SPCA of Wake County, Raleigh, NC -- ID#A054427
This very smart little 6 year old black-headed tri has found herself at the SPCA of Wake County. The folks there indicate that while she's the perfect companion for just about anyone, she's jealous of attentions to other pets, and therefore will not be placed in a home with other animals. Please contact the SPCA of Wake County in Raleigh, NC at 919-772-2326, or visit her Petfinder page for more information about pretty little Suri.

Charlie
After a very transient first two years of life (through no fault of his own), Charlie Chaplin finally landed in our rescue program. He very much wanted to be a good boy, but was lacking in the background and social skills with both people and dogs to know exactly what that meant or how to go about it. However, with typical corgi determination, smarts, and wanting to please, plus the patient guidance of his foster mom, Charlie has caught on quickly and has grown by leaps and bounds. He now knows basic manners, has discovered cookies, and enjoys outings with the corgi girls in his foster home. Additionally, he has charmed everyone he's met with his sweet personality including the staff at the vet's office and all the clients there.

Although Charlie does like to be loved on, he's no couch potato. He greets the day with exuberant rambunctiousness, but does settle down. Older children would be a better match for him as he can get over-enthusiastic in his greetings at time. He also has a birth defect on his back right foot and is missing some toes there. While a future as an agility champ might not be in the kibble for him, his foot does not slow him down much. He will occasionally bump it and reacts much the same way we humans do when we bump our funny bone. Charlie keeps on going and doesn't let it slow him down. He does great on leashed walks, enjoys fetching balls and can entertain himself with a soccer ball.

The rough edges of this gem still need to be polished -- he can be distracted easily by things -- so a fenced yard is going to best for him. A corgi sister to romp and wrestle with would be fine, however he's not one we will place with another male due to his lack of earlier socialization skills.




Crystal
is a red and white little girl who came into rescue with her sister, Sassy. Unlike her sister, her energy level isn't quite as high, so a home with small children would be considered, as she loves children of all ages. She also gets along well with other dogs, but cats are an unknown.
