Corgi rescue is a great way to give a dog an opportunity for a new life. Corgis can be territorial and aggressive around other breeds of dogs. 
This may be part of the reason that there are unwanted Corgis waiting at shelters and with rescue groups. You won't have to look far to find Corgis who have been abandoned by their owners, and are just waiting to be rescued by loving human companions with the patience to trainthem properly.
Many rescue groups deal specifically with the rescue and adoption of Corgis. The Internet can be a great resource to locate rescue groups like this. A simple search can be performed by typing the words "Corgi" and "Rescue" into an Internet search engine. There are many national and regional groups listed on the Internet. Your local vet may also be a good resource for locating groups or individuals who have Corgis for adoption.
Doing your homework before deciding to rescue a Corgi is very important. There are two common varieties of Corgi: Cardigan Corgis and Pembroke's Corgis. 
In general, Pembroke's tend to be a bit smaller, more sociable, and less territorial than Cardigans. Highly intelligent but somewhat willful, some Corgis bark a great deal. Try to learn as much as you can about how the Corgi was raised to this point, to help identify any particular trainingneeds the dog may have.
Be prepared to take your time going through the process of rescuing a Corgi. A decision like this should never be spur-of-the-moment; always be sure you, your family, and your home are ready for a new dog. Be prepared to fill out applications and possibly go through interviews and even home visits as you work with a rescue organization. Matching adoptable Corgis and interested owners can take some time. Rescue groups want to make sure they are placing each Corgi in a truly permanent home.
Some rescue groups charge a small fee for processing the adoption, others ask that you make a donation to their organization. Some rescue groups require you to spay or neuter the animal. Overall, the expense of taking in a rescue Corgi is usually much lower than the cost of buying one outright, and saves the life of an abandoned dog.
