Pembroke Welsh Corgi
Welsh Cojack, Cacki, Corki

The Cojack is a mix between the Pembroke Welsh Corgi, or the Corgi for short, and the Jack Russell Terrier. This is a medium sized dog with large pointy ears, gorgeous almond-shaped eyes that are full of life, stout little legs, and a longer straight tail. All of these traits are an excellent combination of multiple parts of each parent breed. Just like any dog, the Cojack’s personality can vary quite a lot from dog to dog, but for the most part, he is a great balance between the Corgi and the Jack Russel. Energetic, lively, fun loving, friendly, intelligent, and loyal the Cojack is an easy dog to train and absolutely loves being with his family. In fact, long periods of time alone are very difficult for this little dog to swallow. While he isn’t a big barker, the Cojack may very well bark every once in a while to alert you to something or someone new. If you are looking for a pet that makes an excellent companion who is upbeat but can still appreciate a good chill and cuddle time, then the Cojack may be the perfect breed for you.

Cojack Breed History

Because the Cojack is a new hybrid breed, there hasn’t been a lot of time to get a full history on them. However, we can get some idea of what this dog may develop into based on the information that we have on his parent breeds; the Pembroke Welsh Corgi and the Jack Russell Terrier. First, the Pembroke Welsh Corgi is one of the most agreeable little house dogs and it isn’t hard to see why he is so loved. From tall erect ears and bright intelligent eyes, to adorable little legs, the Welsh Corgi will never cease to bring a smile to your face. This adorable breed originated in Wales somewhere around 1,000 years ago. It was believed that the Corgi were a gift from the fairies, who were though to ride them around like horses back in the ancient times. That’s why the breed seems to have “saddle marks” on their back and “harness marks” behind their shoulders. While this story may not be true, it definitely adds to the breed's charm! The Pembroke Welsh Corgi first became well known in the courts of King George VI or Britain in the year 1933 when he presented a puppy as a gift to his two daughters. The Corgi then went on to be registered by the American Kennel Club in the year 1934 and to this day their popularity holds firm. They are used for show and as wonderful family companion dogs. The Jack Russell Terrier certainly doesn’t fall short in the adorable, smile inducing category either. His playful disposition and ever erect stub tail pairs well with the lively light in his large dark eyes. These dogs were first created in the 1800’s when an Oxford student, Jack Russell, fell in love with a Terrier. As an avid fox-hunter, Jack used his Terrier to develop a Fox Terrier line that was known for its ever-present desire to follow foxes and from there, the rest is history. A club in America specific to the Jack Russell Terrier developed quickly and it wasn’t long after that the American Kennel Club decided to recognize the breed; this didn’t settle well with the American fans of the breed, however, as they had strict standards already developed within their own group. This breed is used for all kind of events including shows, working class events, and of course, as companion dogs.

Cojack Breed Appearance

Despite being a hybrid breed, the Cojack seems to do a very good job of sticking to one similar type of appearance. He is a medium sized dog with short, yet stout legs, that hold his long body strongly. The Cojack takes on the Corgi ears, which stand tall and erect, allowing the almond-shaped dark brown eyes to be very visible on the face. A few versions of this breed may end up taking after the Jack Russell Terrier in the way that their ears may bow a little bit at the top, or fold over completely depending on how strong the gene is. No matter which version of the Cojack you get, they are adorable all the way around! Their fur is short and smooth, lying close to the body, but may have a slightly rough texture to it. The fur can come in a number of different colors and marking, but do tend to adopt looks from both parent breed; either patched colored sections like the Jack Russell or the trademark saddle shape and white blaze on the forehead like the Corgi.

Cojack Breed Maintenance

The Cojack is a very low maintenance type of dog. His short fur tends to shed very little and will only need brushing perhaps one to two times a week just to keep it free of dirt and shiny. While this breed doesn’t shed very often, he does shed a little so he isn’t completely hypoallergenic; however, this would be a great choice of dog for someone who just has mild allergies that aren’t too affected by small amounts of loose hair. Bathing only needs to occur every few months or if your dog gets especially dirty as the Cojack does not have a bad doggy smell. If you have a Cojack with folded ears, be sure to dry them thoroughly after bathing or swimming to avoid any trapped moisture leading to ear infections. Besides bathing and brushing, basic care would be to trim your dog’s nails every few weeks or when you here the nails clicking against the floor. This will keep the paws healthy and snag free. Due to his shorter coat, the Cojack tends to prefer warmer weather and doesn’t overheat too quickly.

Cojacks often suffer from patellar luxation. Secure pet health insurance today to avoid high veterinary care costs. Our pet insurance tool lets you compare plans from leading companies like Figo and Spot. Find the “pawfect” plan for your pet in just a few clicks!

Cojack Temperament

With parents like the Jack Russell Terrier and the Corgi, there is no doubt that the Cojack is going to be a friendly, energetic, and intelligent hybrid breed. While these dogs were both intended to be companion animals, the Jack Russell is indeed a terrier, so he has that herding desire deep within his bones. This trait may pass on to the Cojack, but it will most likely just reveal itself in a lot of energy that can easily be diverted into play or training. Both parent breeds of the Cojack are easy to train and eager to please, so training your dog shouldn’t be too much of a struggle. It is important to start early with training and socialization so that any protective tendencies or bad manners can be diverted early on. The Cojack won’t tend to bark often, but he may alert you to a new person or strange situation if there is a need. This is a great dog for any sized home, as long as there is some way for him to get exercise, and he does wonderfully with families that may have small children or other pets.

Cojack Activity Requirements

Because the Cojack is a breed that has fairly active parent breeds, there will need to be a moderate amount of activity opportunities for him throughout the day. A couple of really good play session or training should be enough to wear him out both mentally and physically. The nice thing about this breed is that, while the Cojack is energetic, he also can be a couch potato; which means plenty of snuggle time! Great ways to interact with your dog and get him so good exercise would be a long walk, a quick jog, playing at the park, a game of fetch, or training. Just 45 minutes to an hour should be plenty a couple times a day to keep the Cojack happy and healthy. Just be sure to spend some of that play time training, as it keeps the dog well behaved and tired out mentally. The Cojack does not bark often and won’t tend to bark frequently even if he is all wound up. This makes him a great dog for in the city or the country; whatever you prefer.

A wonderful rescue dog who chose us. He is mostly happy but has severe skin problems. He is covered in various cysts some loook like blackberries.He has a large fHatty lump on his left side below hisshoulder. He is stone deaf and both eyeshave large cataracts. He has to take antihistamines daily. As well as cysts Paddy has what looks like black tar on his skin His depth perception is poor. He seems to have a problem with right hip jointand his lower legs are just bone. He is a very fussy eater I am worried about his future when he will have a dark silent world. We could get one cataract fixed but are not sure he is up to the op

Our Cojack came to us through a rescue group in MN. He is a tripod due to abuse. We consider ourselves very lucky to have found him. He rarely barks and we have had a fairly easy time training him. Some separation anxiety like the article mentioned. He is always waiting at the door for our return. He has been a wonderful addition to our family.

We love our little fur boy,although he can be a challenge at times! We definitely have to spend a lot of time training and working on appropriate doggie manners. He is very eager to please us,loves his training treats but has a tendency to show aggression and is very possessive of "his" belongings-toys,bed and food. We are constantly working on his aggressive nature and it's a slow process with slow progress. He's alright with our young daughter but I wouldn't recommend young children with this breed,sadly. A very picky eater who prefers wet diet over a dry diet. He's very,very affectionate and prefers being a lap dog with your hands constantly moving in petting motion. I've never seen so much energy in a dog!! He sure can run and run and he loves to run and play. Toys are a must with our boy! He loves bones, and anything that squeaks. He can be destructive,chewing many things to shreds, but never his toys!! We love our boy,even if he challenges us from time to time. He is a great dog and keeps us active.

Rosie came to us here in Massachusetts as a rescue from South Carolina. She is very smart and also a bit stubborn. She loves chasing squirrels and birds. When walking she always has her nose to the ground, finding and following scent trails. At night she jumps into the bed and burrows under the comforter and stays there until late morning. She is standoffish to strangers, but friendly to those she knows. All in all, she is a funny and very sweet dog. And so-o cute!

I love my little Delilah, but she is a ball of energy. She is the smallest dog I have, weighing in at 22lbs, but she can keep up with my bloodhound/pyr mix no problem. She is easily excitable and very protective. I can take her places, but she tends to get nervous. She is definitely a lapdog and has to be next to me as much as possible. One of her favorite activities is herding my cats all over the yard.

Very loving. Interacts well with other leashed dogs by ignoring them. Tried to herd children as a puppy by nipping at heels but was easily distracted by this. Chose our second dog after the loss of our older dog. He will let you know verbally if he is upset which is almost unheard of. He is definitely my husband's dog. He does interact well with cats.

Bear came to us as a rescue at 6 months old. He was easily trained. He is very loving and protective and does not share his toys with our older dog who has no interest in the toys but Bear does not want the other dog anywhere around his toys. He is full of energy all the time and is very vocal and shares his opinion, loves to swim and dig and hide his bones. Very smart breed, he does tend to herd me around when I have pants on.

Got Lilly from the rescue that I volunteer at (surrendered by her previous owner who wanted a puppy). This cute but sometimes stubborn girl came to me house-trained. She was quick to adapt to my household. She loves lounging in her bed or on the chair, but is energetic when we go for our walks (2 long walks daily), and will lunge at birds, squirrels and other dogs. And boy can she jump! Will jump 4-5 feet when I arrive home. Good thing I have a 6 foot fence in my yard. She is very loyal, and has followed me around the house from the day I brought her home. A great dog!

Still working on that! Very friendly with new people but will warning bark when someone new comes to the door. He watches the house while we are gone and is surprisingly good at keeping us safe!

My Cojack has been one of the sweetest dogs I have ever had the privilege of knowing. He’s extremely loyal and loving, and loves to meet people and explore new places. He is territorial at home; he does bark at other dogs around our apartment complex, but he makes friends very easily at the dog park. He does tend to shed quite a bit, but I have no problems using a lint roller before work. (He loves to be brushed!) He likes to snuggle in my bed, he prefers to burrow under the blankets; sometimes he prefers to sleep on his own in his crate. He’s very intelligent and has made up his own gestures for telling me he needs to go out. He’s very distractable, and has the worst case of ADHD I’ve ever seen in a dog... everything can make him forget when he’s about to drop a deuce.. Overall, I love this dog more than anything, he is my best friend and I have enjoyed knowing him and learning about him. I don’t feel like Cojacks would make a good companion for anyone who cannot or will not go outside, they love to run. Mine loves to chase and be chased; and loves to go to 5k races and running trails. They can be calm and lazy, but they need to burn the excess energy.

When I leave home for even a short time, he goes through my garbage. I am trying to correct this bad behavor. I only have had him for 2 months.

She works well with the kids in the house, and she recognizes when she does something wrong. However, she has separation anxiety (probably from her shelter days) and legit never tires. She also loves being the "dominant" dog in the park when she's the smallest one. Like, calm down Miso, you don't have to be the alpha all the time! However, I love her nontheless! She's adorable.

Considering his age domino has slowed down considerably to that when he was younger. When we got him as a rescue at 6 years old he had suffered abuse and was wary of older males, in a house of children aged 7 to 14 and a single mother this didn’t cause too many problems however over time he did warm up to males after a few years of reassurance and love. It is only as he has aged that he has started to slow down and his coat grow thicker, I say slow down but he still enjoys running around when he feels like it even if it isn’t as often. He is extremely intelligent and always has been learning even in old age, extremely friendly just not with other pets and he has a huge personality.

I received him from a family whom said he was a chi/Pom mix. However after him growing older And actions I knew this was not correct. Per the vet, I recently discovered that he is cojack. Which explains a lot. Arlo loves a lot. He enjoys attention. If you pet him, you can’t stop until he’s ready. He has major separation anxiety. He loves to chew and destruct shoes and stuffed animals and anything. He will chew any toy until it is demolished. He loves me and is my protector. He is extremely energetic as much as a couch potato. He has been harder to train. He is a beggar and loves to eat real food....he is extremely nervous In the car but loves to have the window down if he’s in one. He is a very nervous dog too, when we go anywhere he’s a shaker. All in all, he needs lots of attention and love and that’s what we do. He does have some Bit of an aggression in him as well, mainly he thinks is playing however he gets more rough than necessary. He sheds a lot, it is not minimal. He is extremely funny at times and can be quite stupid occasionally but it’s funny. He does love chasing birds and squirrels, and has brought me some 😬 he enjoys following a scent as well. He is not a fan of water if he is in it or splashed by it. I love him though and he has been a blessing.

Going on walks is Tula's absolute favorite thing ever. Being that we adopted her at 7 years old, it's hard to know what habits she picked up from previous owners and what is natural for her breed. On walks, she has to sniff EVERYTHING and everywhere and pees frequently to mark her territory. She is extremely territorial, sometimes excessively, but she is receptive to being told off when she steps over boundaries. She is very loyal and will follow you to the ends of the earth, but she does seem like she wants to be pack leader and lead and pull during walks so that's something we're working on. But she's so well-behaved - for example, although we she clearly doesn't like it, she doesn't fight or resist baths. She is great with dogs her size or smaller and absolutely loves running around with them at dog parks. Bigger dogs are a huge no-no - she'll start showing her teeth and will growl and bark at them as if they're a threat to her. We live in a 500 sq. ft. apartment and it is no problem at all for Tula. She pretty much sleeps all day, exhausted from our long walks, or is staring out our juliette balcony. She doesn't shed too excessively so the apartment isn't covered in fur. All-in-all, I would recommend this breed. We felt lucky that she was available at a shelter considering how good this breed is! Biggest issue with her seems to be a consistent trait of the breed - she absolutely hates being left alone. She'll cry when you leave and then be absolutely ecstatic when you return. But she does great in cars so if I'm going somewhere that she can come, I usually take her along!

She learns readily but might show her temper from time to time and pretend not to understand you. The best thing is to see her cuddling with your arm in the mornings and feel so much love.

I adopted him over a year ago from the big dog ranch rescue in Loxahatchee Florida. He was completely housebroken. Obedience training was swift and he is off leash. He's very protective of my 90 year old mother, and will become aggressive, which I love. What a keeper

"Bubby", as he is affectionately called, is smart, funny and a great addition to our family. He was adopted from our local shelter and was a Street dog but has adapted to home life quite quickly.

I would recommend this breed to anyone with kids or an active couple with no kids,a great family dog. He requires mental stimulation as well as at least 2 hours of activity a day (1 hour of that being very intense), don't underestimate the JR half energy requirements. other than that he is a very well behaved, never destructive & never barks indoors. He was quite the hand-full prior to age 1 but seemed to really get on the same team after that. On weekends we take him on walks that sometimes last over 6 hours (he loves it) and let him rest on Sundays. He requires affection in the evenings as he is winding down (wants to be part of the pack). I would recommend training this breed to be off-leash (where safe) as this will allow them burn off energy and helps with mental stimulation as the Jack half likes to be to feel independent and make decisions on the field. A bit of a picky eater will not eat only dry food, we add either a spoon of canned wet or boiled meat (chicken, pork, lamb) to his dry food. Might be unique to my experience but I think the sites recommendation of 45 mins of activity is not enough and you would end up with a frustrated/destructive dog unless you have young kids that will provide your pet with mental stimulation.

We found Stella on Christmas Eve in a cardboard box at a dump site and she’s been the best gift we’ve ever “gotten”. She is very energetic and loves going on hikes and long walks. However, she also knows how to have a lazy day. She’s the smartest dog I’ve ever met. She learns words and phrases after only a few tries, even at her age. She even picks up words we don’t teach her. She is very dog-selective, only lots of socialization helps her adjust to new dogs, she’s an only dog in the house. She’s highly protective of me, to the point where nobody can touch me before I wake up, even my husband who she has known her entire life. She doesn’t bite due to aggression, only nips during playtime and she knows when she’s gone too far. She loves people food, especially BBQ, and she sleeps in the bed like a little person. She even has little tantrums when she can’t get comfy. She does have seizures bi-weekly, but we don’t know what specifically causes them. We think something about her kidneys or liver, Pedigree dog food made them 100% worse. Even when she’s pre and post seizure she’s calm and knows what to do. We take her to the groomer every 3 months for bath and coat trim, she’s got husky fur or something, super duper soft but likes to shed when we let it grow long. Her kisses are the best and I’ve never been so attached to a dog. She’s a one-of-a-kind partner and has all our love.

Winston does not actually belong to me, but my brother. Wonston is a tri-color male cojack and LOVES being with his people. He is always super happy but he always seems to start barking during the worst times. Like while watching a movie, or on a call, etc. He doesn't really have any health issues. Perfectly healthy. He eats everything though so maybe there is something wrong with him... We adopted him for Christmas in 2020 and have had many memories together. Winston was such a good boy that we are now getting 2 more puppies from the same breeder. Their names are Comet and Merlin. Comet is going to become mine and Merlin will be my mom's. To summarize, cojacks are an AMAZING dog breed (Mutt) that I have ever owned. (I have also owned a pit bull, miniature schnauzer, black lab/great dane)

He is an absolute star, he's very loving and excitable. Wants to be friends with everyone person or animal. He is very talkative especially in a morning when you wake up, he likes to say good morning and has morning cuddles and fusses. He knows when to settle with a simple command. He's a very fast learner and I wouldn't ask for a better dog. He was house trained very quickly too. He now barks at the back door if he needs to go out to donhis business and when he's off his lead, once called he returns to us. We as a daily of 4 love him very much.

Question

How do I groom my cokack, he is a welsh corgi and Jack Russell mix but his due is thick like a corgi, his last groomer shaved him very short and he loves it. We live in Florida and the temps are hi, I need to shave him but I’m afraid. He I a rescue and is a biter. His groomer has not been available due to personal reasons. I would love to learn to do it myself but I’m scared because he gets really aggressive and bears his teeth. Please advise
