| The Pembroke Welsh Corgi Standard |
 |
| The low-set Pembroke is a bold but kindly and active herding dog. It's expression is intelligent, curious and interested. |
 |
| The eyes are expressive, medium-sized oval and a dark brown that harmonizes with the coat color. |
|
| The foxy, refined head should be well proportioned with erect, firm ears that tapers to a rounded point. |
|
| A somewhat tapered muzzle flows to a black nose, tight lips and scissor bite. |
|
| Pem coats maybe Red, Sable, Fawn or black and tan, with or without white markings. |
|
| The Rib cage is well sprung, moderately long and slightly egg-shaped with deep well-let-down chest. |
|
| The Pems front is nearly straight with strong, oval feet, turning neither in nor out. |
|
| The thick weather resistant double coat usually has a ruff and pants of longer hair. It often features a sadle-shaped mark on the back. |
|
| A long slightly arched neck flows into a firm, level topline. |
|
| Ample bone and strong flexible hindquarters with short, parallel hocks give the Pems their agile and free gait. |
|
| The Tuck up is only slight, leading to well muscled thighs. |
|
| A Pembroke Trademark is its lack of tail, although some Pems are docked with tails of up to two inches in length - carried low. |
