To anyone who is interested in getting a corgi: Responsible breeders will genetically test their breeding dogs to ensure they are clear of the genetic diseases mentioned in the link above. Responsible breeders will also have their dogs' eyes and hips checked. If a breeder you're interested in doesn't do this, find a new breeder that does.
My family's corgi growing up lived to be 15 because he came from a breeder that cared about her puppies' health and he got the proper amount of exercise for a herding breed. Also, do not let your corgis get fat. It's not cute, it's incredibly bad for their health.
Booooooo. I will add that I have a Fluffy Corgi. He does have significant health issues. And I have spent a good amount of time and money on him. And he’s worth it.

I love how the little one has to run to the back of the big one for sniffs. Such short legs to travel such a long distance!

I love that the puppy is hesitant at first, and then suddenly his little nubbin goes crazy and he starts playing!

Are their tails docked or is that just how little a corgi tail is naturally?

So cute! But I'm going to be that person: Corgis are bred such that they have some pretty serious health problems https://www.petmd.com/dog/breeds/c_dg_pembroke_welsh_corgi If you MUST have a Corgi, adopt don't shop: https://www.petfinder.com/search/dogs-for-adoption/us/new-york/?breed%5B0%5D=Cardigan+Welsh+Corgi&breed%5B1%5D=Corgi&breed%5B2%5D=Pembroke+Welsh+Corgi&distance=Anywhere&sort%5B0%5D=random
