Adopt a Corgi in District of Columbia

Corgis — both Pembroke and Cardigan — are lively, intelligent, and surprisingly athletic herding dogs in compact bodies. They appear in rescue when their stubbornness, vocalization, or herding instincts surprise owners. A rescued Corgi is a smart, cheerful, and devoted companion.

Washington DC's rescue dog community is highly active, with organizations across the District and immediate suburbs. Most DC rescues transport dogs from rural Southern shelters where euthanasia rates are higher. A rescued DC dog has typically traveled from another state to reach its new home.
