The Welsh corgi is a small type of herding dog that originated in Wales

There are two breeds of Welsh corgis, the Cardigan and the Pembroke, each named for the county in Wales where it originated. The differences between the two breeds include bone structure, body length, and size.

Cardigans are the larger of the two breeds, with large rounded ears and a 12-inch-long foxy, flowing tail set in line with the body.

Pembrokes feature pointed ears, and are somewhat smaller in stature than the Cardigan. The dog's head is fox-like and the tail short, which can be accomplished through breeding or docking.
