As a lover of herding breeds - all I can add is "A tired dog is a good dog"; and as the pup matures, find "jobs". These jobs can be as ridiculous as "carry my socks downstairs so I can put them on my feet" or "carry the junk mail back to the house for me". They need to do something for you. If you don't find them a job, they'll invent one, and sometimes those don't go well......LOL!!
So true!! We wanted the Corgi as we knew that the average compact dog would never be able to keep up with us. At roughly 18 weeks she walks on a leash like a pro and certainly enjoys it. We normally do a minimum of 3 miles a day and she of course isn't up to that but is doing very well.
