I have a small Welsh Corgi that  i often take for a walk. It is a type of herding dog
That's excellent! Is it a male or female, and what color is it?
It is a white female of the Cardigan Welsh Corgi breed
That sounds great. I really enjoy German Shepherds and Retrievers
My cousin has a  German Shepherd too. He called it Alsatian  as he grew up in Ireland
That's a great name. I love dogs. They truly are man's best friend
It is not a name. Alsatian  is what they call the breed in Britain and Ireland.
Oh, my misunderstanding. I will have to check out that breed.
