Rowland's mom says: Rowland (Rollie for short) was 2 months old when we brought him home. My son calls him a "bundle of cute". He was named after F. Sherwood Rowland, a Nobel Prize winning Chemist. And he is REALLY SMART! He is also a bundle of energy, and goes full speed until he drops. He already has a "best friend" - Felix, the cat next door. Felix will come to our patio door and cry for Rollie to come out and play! The rule at home is: "Anything on the floor belongs to Rollie!" Items become new toys, tossed and chewed lovingly; or proud trophies paraded around the house. Rollie is the talk of the neighborhood and the park. While the Cardigan Corgi is more reserved ("Have we been introduced?"), Rollie is typical of the Pembroke - every new person he meets is greeted with enthusiasm ("Somebody new to pet me!") and a wiggling butt - no tail, you know!









Your son was being conservative -- what we have here is a truckload of cute! Any breed that's good enough for the Queen has got to be pretty special -- and Rowland certainly is. 11 biscuits.
I love his face! Rollie looks so serious and thoughtful. Good thing he has a pet dinosoaur- did he drag this out of the house after conquering it and beating it into submission? Congrats on your new baby!
The Pembroke Welsh Corgi is one of two of my favorite breeds (the Shetland Sheepdog is the other), and your Rollie is a perfect example of why I love them! He is beautiful and has personality plus! Many happy healthy years to a most handsome boy!
he is so handsome! I love Corgie's they always make me smile!
Enjoy your baby boy! And yes your son was conservative Rollie is most certainly a TRACTOR TRUCK Full of CUTENESS
And he dances!!! :-)
Many scritches and biscuits for Rollie! (Oh, and since he's named after a scientist, no doubt he's "experimenting" with respect to what objects make the best toys.)
Rollie, you are a handsome little guy. You seem to be studying everything around you. The lights are all ON and all systems are on GO. Such a happy little pup. Many happy years and tummy rubs. All the best.
Rollie is gorgeous and he seems to love the camera, posing so well for each picture, very photogenic. He is totally adorable! Zillions of biscuits and kisses xxx
What a sweetheart! Rollie really is a "bundle of cute." I hope you have many happy and healthy years together! Enjoy your little boy. Lots of love and biscuits to you Rollie.
"Let those with eyes to see know of my irresistability and bravely endure their suffering when they can't rub my belly in person!"
Be happy, little fellow!
Soooooooooooo precious!!! I have a corgi mix who bears some resemblance to your little one....have fun :)
ok. once again a corgi is the puppy of the day. I LOVE CORGIs i have a lhasa aspo right now but i want a corgi puppy too! so cute
Rollie is such a handsome little man! I have a black & white corgi who just turned 12, and he has been such a joy! I hope you have as much enjoyment from Rollie... and how could you help it? He seems so sweet!
He's so cute!
Puppy pictures make my day. God knew what we needed when he created dogs - and the variety is endless too!
I couldn't choose between this pic or the Playgirl centerfold shot! :) I have always loved corgis but unfortunately have never met one in real life. Rollie is adorable and I just want to nuzzle those adorable ears. Enjoy him and maybe one day I will have a Corgi friend!
I LOVE CORGI'S! Rollie is just too cute! This picture just made me want to give alot of belly rubs! 11 biscuits for sure!!!
Roland is the cutest corgi ever! I just love this breed. I currently have three corgis and, as my breeder said,"corgis are like potato chips, you just can't have one..." Enjoy this lovable puppy.
I just love this picture. Rollie looks as if he is guarding his dinosaur... he is such a cutiepie, hope you have a wonderful life together. 11 biscuits and tons of belly rubs for MR. ROLLIE!!!!
The picture is Rollie saying,"Oh- I didn't see you there. You just caught me being extremely handsom while I sun bathe.... yeeess you can rub my belly"
What a presh!! Many happy years with Rollie!
it's too bad there are not enough adjectives to pump up the word "cute" - he is so cute there really is no appropriate description!! what a great puppy to start off my day. once again i must bestow infinity biscuits and belly rubs and scritches & hugs and kisses!! i could look at that little face all day! many happy & loving & fun years to you & Rollie!
I agree with your son, he is a bundle of cuteness. I also like the story about the cat, how funny!!! I was hoping to see a pic of him with kitty. I love his little body, and I love this breed. Beyond cute! Lots and lots of treats and belly rubs. God Bless
Such an amazingly cute puppy... one of the cutest I've seen in a long time (and that is really saying something). This breed is SO great, especially when they're puppies, and it looks like you have a really special little guy who will continue to be a joy for you for the rest of his life. Congrats and good luck!
What a handsome little guy! Second Corgi in as many weeks (if my memory is correct) is turning me into a fan. Never really gave the breed much thought, but the last one was adorable and Rollie is just amazingly cute! That face is so expressive and just lit up with intelligence and goodwill...who could resist?
Millions of biscuits to Rollie, and may you have many, many happy years together! :)
Rollie looks very intelligent! Royalty, like the Queen's corgis. How cute he is though, and I love your story. Darling pictures....God Bless you all with love, health, and happiness.
I'M IN LOVE.....AGAIN! Those widdle Corgi's just melt me into cuteness overload. Rollie is smashingly cute and he looks like a small professor of canine intelligence too. Here's wishing Professor Rowland many long years of love and good health.....lucky you!
xoxo from Florida.
Fabulous pictures on an even more fabulous baby--- I adore him. Hooray for short legs! Corgies and Wieners are my favorites-
Rollie, have a wonderful life!
I need to know where these photos were taken, then ask if I specifically need a Corgi to keep these giant worms out of my Canadian garden? Rollie is certainly the man for the job! Bless 'em all! Ontario, Canada
Rollie, I love you. For realz. Just wait another year or so and a corgi will finally make its way into my life.
Corgies are sooooo cute. I love their big ears; they look like little stuffed animals. Rollie is super cute.
Rollie and Felix best friends - how adorable is that. Rollie oozes with personality and who could resist him wherever he goes. The photo of him with his dino cracks me up - it looks bigger than he is. Keep that little bum wiggling Rollie. Hugs, kisses and 11 biscuits from Kansas USA.
Rowland looks like a stuffed animal. He is just absolutely too cute. I gotta get one of these.
A favorite picture? Are you kidding! How can you choose!
Ok I will choose the profile shot, but I can pick no favorite here. He is just too cute!
MEGA BISKITS!!!!!!
Rowland is sooooooooo cute...!! My son has Zoe, a female Pembroke Corgi and he is as cute and smart as she is...Such a lovey. I love the tail less Pembrokes!! Much happiness to you all.
Rollie is the cutest dog ever!!! And any dog who is best friends with a cat clearly has a great personality, too! Hmmm. . .I think I might be the human version of a Pembroke Welsh Corgi--any dog I see, I think "yay, someone new for me to pet!!"
So hard to pick just one favorite pic of this adorable baby! If cute were a country, Rollie would be China!
It was nearly impossible to chose just 1 favorite pitcute of Rollie. I haven't seen a dog this cute since I don't know when! Honestly, what a beautiful, photgenic creature!!! :-) He deserves tons of biscuits!
I hope you have a fantastic life with this little guy. You're so lucky to have each other.
There are two type of dogs that I really want to get....a Corgi is one of the two. I was so excited to see this handsome boy in my mailbox! He really is a beautiful pup and he looks like loads of fun for you. Congrats on the awesome puppy.
And by the way...everyone is wrong. He's a FREIGHT TRAIN full of cuteness!!!
I've never known a corgi in person,but they sure do do the cute market cornered.Many biscuits and belly rubs from Georgia,USA.
His thoughtful face befits a Nobel scientist! He is beautiful and is a lucky puppy to be in such a loving home.
He looks so much like my Misa! She was the daily puppy back in September. He is adorable. Hope he brings you as much happiness as Misa has brought us. You are right about the personality. Misa just loves to meet new people. Have fun!
What a sweet baby! I love Pembroke Corgis, and I can't wait to get one of my own! Hope he brings you a lot of smiles and laughs!

"Rowland is ready for his close-up Mr de Mille!" Goodness what a goodlooking pup. I'm a sucker for good ears on a puppy, and these are the top banana. Beautiful coat, beautiful eyes - and smart! Who could resist?!
Enjoy your lovely boy, love from Posh Tater and Parsnip the pupkin (DP 07.12.07)
HE IS A BUNDLE OF CUTE!!! and he looks like he is totally posing for this pic. What a good time you will have with him!!!
Absolutely wonderful pictures, so difficult to choose one. Such a beautiful puppy, many happy years with this sweetie!
Corgis are one of my favourite dogs, but Rollie has totally stollen my heart! LOVE this picture, he knows he's amazing!
Many, many happy years, Rollie!
What a beautiful boy! Every picture is stunning! A billion biscuits for Rollie, I have never seen a cuter pup.
I had to comment on this one! I never got to see my girl as a puppy - she is a rescue who came to me as an adult but your Rollie - with his off-center blaze makes me think this must have been what she looked like. He is beyond adorable! If he is half as michevious as his pictures and my experience suggest you will have your hands full. Enjoy! (I particularly love the "You aren't payng attention so I will look away and see if I can catch you looking at me" look in this pic)
I have been partial to Shih-tzus, but I think I may have to consider a Pembroke Corgi as my next pup down the road. Not only is Rollie cute, but you see the personality in his eyes. Many many happy years together! 11 biscuits and so many more.
Oh my gosh! Is this the adorable Rollie that goes to the HB Little Bark Park for the Corgi meet-up on Sundays in Orange County? It's Ozzy and Zakk's mom - momma to the red/white Pembroke and black tri Cardigan. I so love that you were named after F. Sherwood Rowland! (I interviewed him in high school!)
If this is the same little guy, the pictures don't do him justice! He's even more sweet and precious in person! And kudos to the photographer as well...
CORGI EARS!!! I must say your boy is very handsome and looks like the personality-full little Corgi that he is :) I can't get over the ears, they could pick up radio signals. Lots of belly rubs and biscuits for your baby.
Corgis are my absolute favorite because they are just so undeniably adorable! I want one incredibly bad! That's also such a cute story about the cat :D
xoVal
So handsome! I love this breed and am so happy to own a little girl Corgi named Lily. They are so loving and intelligent. Best Wishes with Rolly!
Your Rollie is sooooo cute!! I just want to pull him out of the computer and hugg him!!!
God Bless All of you!!
Pardon me, but do you have any Poupon? Rollie is terrific! Oh it makes me miss my Eddie so much! I adore, adore, ADORE Pembroke Corgis! They are the sweetest most wonderful dogs ever. You are so lucky to have him, he will keep you amused and happy for a long time. A trillion million billion biscuits for him just because he's so dang cute! I wish I could rub his tummy right NOW!
Two corgis in a week - what's going on? I adore corgis and they are great dogs. Big personalities. Very loyal. I wish you many happy years with the adorable Rowland.
Oh he is so precious!! My mom has a Corgi & I imagine he looked alot like Rollie as a puppy. She did not get him until he was over a year old so we have no puppy pictures!! I love the ears!! THey just make the breed that much more adorable!!
Don't bug me, I'm trying to get some sleep here. Or maybe a belly rub. Too cute. Love Corgies. Try to give 11 biscuts but can't seem to be able to do it so I will give them to you here. Actually 11 zillion biscuts.
Don't just take my picture. I want a tummy rub. Tried to show the picture of Rollie lying on his back but it won't send. 11 zillion biscuits to this little baby.

[color=red] I 'm sorry but this picture just captured my heart, just look at that innocent face....
AWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
corgis are so friendly and i love the story about the cat!!!
my boyfriend jake had an old pembroke corgi who sadly passed away but he looked exactly like Rollie and it brought tears to my eyes remembering his little face......Rollie you are so undeniably cute!!!
my friend Mia has a cardigan but pembrokes are always sooo much nicer and friendlyier and way way way cuter!!!!
my heart has melted at the sight of you and i cannot stop gazing at your magnificent pictures.
the main thing i love about corgis is their distinct ears!!!!
i love em!!!!
you are so lucky and i gave you 11 biscuits!!!! woop woop
have fun and i luv u loads<3[/color]
Well, Rollie, you have an extra special place in my heart since 1. you are unbelievably cute and 2. I am an actual chemist!
Lots of belly rubs, kisses, and biscuits to you today and every day!
I love your cool dinosaur toy, too!
"Rollie" is a little heart breaker! I love Welsh Corgi's! I am of Welsh stock and my grandfather was called "Rollie" by his family so the name is especially endearing to me. We have the same rule in our house. Whatever is on the floor belongs to Jake. :-)
