Apparently, If You Cross Corgis With Other Breeds, They End Up Looking Like A Corgi Disguised As The Other Dog (23 Pics)
This quirky creature is fluffy, funny, and impawsibly cute. With stumpy legs and a constant smile, we totally see why the Queen of England loves her corgis so much.
And she’s not the only one. In fact, corgis are known as internet-famous dogs, with numerous corgifluencers on social media. So when one Twitter user who goes by the handle @soapachu started a thread on corgis, you could have suspected it would go viral. Especially when @soapachu pointed out something so obvious, it’s crazy how we haven’t seen this before.
“Your regular reminder that a corgi crossed with any other breed just ends up looking like a corgi disguised as the other dog,” said the caption of the tweet, which amassed 256.9k likes and 42.2k retweets.

If you've ever wondered how on earth corgis became the most adored dogs on the internet, you should step back and take a very good look at them. The universal popularity of corgis has partly to do with their appearance: chunky bod, long tongue, stumpy legs, and permanently smiling face.
In fact, corgis are not nearly as beautiful as Weimaraners or as perfect as Labrador retrievers, but they’re beautiful in their own, very cute way. Their approachable character and super optimistic vibes are what make them stand out from other dog breeds. Corgis' fun looks perfectly work in an online environment ruled by funny and cutesy animals.
When you think about it, corgis make perfect meme material with their "what now?" resting pose which reflects our own state of being.
Someone: rottweilers are dangerous get them away from me! Me" *shows them this dog*
No wonder social media is currently ruled by corgi accounts where people are sharing pics of their fluffy friends daily. Rachel, a founder of the UKDogsofInsta page on Instagram, believes that corgis' popularity on the internet has fueled the breed’s renaissance in real life.
“People are hugely influenced by what they see online and it is no surprise that some of the dogs that are most popular on Instagram are impacting on the popularity of dog breeds in real life.”
“This is great news for the Pembroke Welsh corgi, which is a breed that has long been struggling to get noticed in the UK,” Rachel told the press.
How about not breeding new special breeds and focus on getting animals in shelters in loving homes...? (Not trying to say they're not cute, just...)
Why is this surprising? Everything crossed with a pit bull looks like a pit bull.
I used to travel to work on a scooter which you could go as fast as 50mph downhill. Every morning a corgi-cross would wait round the corner to chase me and the scooter. Chased me to the main road. Kept up with me, all the way, down the hill, every day. Which proves corgis’ can’t half shift.
We had a K/Jack Russell mix and he was perfect morph. Taller than K but sturdier than JR. And waaaay too smart! Miss him so much.
Actually, to me it's just sad! Why are people doing that? If it's accidental, watch your dog. They may be cute, but it's still sad!
Aww, it looks like the corgis changed their fur color and popped on some doggy Halloween masks XD Corgis in disguise, they'll never catch us!
SO SO SO grateful someone compiled this thread of Corgi-ish dogs!!! LOVED it!
NOT a very good idea, Bored Panda. Show "cute" pictures of cross-breeds and people say "how cute, I want one" - and so unscrupulous breeders will deliberately cross breed pure-bred dogs for these people, without giving a thought to what the puppies might inherit from either dam or sire. And in the meantime the shelters and rescue centres are full of unwanted dogs and puppies. My last four dogs have all been rescued unwanted puppies - the last one being only three-weeks old and unweaned. The rest of the litter were disposed of because nobody would take them.
