BreedPembroke Welsh CorgiSexFemaleSizeMediumAgeAdult

Meet Buttercup, a 7‑year‑old Pembroke Welsh Corgi whose sweet spirit and classic corgi charm are impossible not to love. Recently released from a breeding situation, she is discovering the joy of living in a real home—and she is absolutely thriving. Personality Buttercup starts off a bit shy, but once she feels safe, she becomes your devoted little shadow. She follows her foster mom everywhere and loves being close to her people. If you bend down to tie your shoes or pick something up, expect a gentle nudge—Buttercup believes every moment is an opportunity for affection. She greets her family with joyful bounces when they come home and always wants to be the first to say hello. Whether she’s curled up next to you on the couch or resting at your feet, Buttercup is happiest when she’s near her humans. Other Pets Buttercup gets along well with other dogs, though she would also be perfectly content as an only dog. Because of her past, she can be unsure around new or overly enthusiastic dogs. She’ll politely ask for space with a soft rumble when she needs it—but once she’s comfortable, she loves to bounce and play. Her signature corgi smile makes those moments even sweeter. Home Life & Training Buttercup is fully crate trained and making great progress with house training. She may mark initially in a new environment, but responds immediately to a firm “no” and learns quickly. She knows what to do once she’s outside and enjoys exploring the yard and sniffing everything she can. She is still building confidence on a leash. She isn’t fearful, just unsure, so for now she requires a fully fenced yard. With time and patience, she is expected to become more comfortable on walks. Buttercup hasn’t been around young children, and as a herding breed, she may do best in a home with older kids (10+). Ready to Love and Be Loved Buttercup is a gentle, affectionate girl who wants nothing more than a family to adore. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will follow you from room to room and fill your home with warmth, Buttercup may be your perfect match. Think Buttercup is the one? Apply today!
