Corgi means "Dwarf dog" in Welsh, which is fitting since they have those short little legs. Believe it or not those short legs can move pretty quickly; Corgis might be the smallest of the herding ...
Scale forms on the skin surface in various disease settings, and is the result of abnormal desquamation. In pathologic desquamation, such as that seen in X-linked ichthyosis, the stratum corneum becomes thicker (hyperkeratosis), imparting a "dry" or scaly appearance to the skin, and instead of detaching as single cells, corneocytes are shed in clusters, which forms visible scales.

The Welsh Corgi (/ ˈ k ɔːr ɡ i / [5] or Corgi, plural Corgis, or occasionally the etymologically consistent Corgwn; / ˈ k ɔːr ɡ uː n /) is a small type of herding dog that originated in Wales.

A dog with degenerative myelopathy often stands with its legs close together and may not correct an unusual foot position due to a lack of conscious proprioception. Canine degenerative myelopathy, also known as chronic degenerative radiculomyelopathy, is an incurable, progressive disease of the canine spinal cord that is similar in many ways to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
This projection places negligible levels of shedding to be expected six weeks post-exposure (or approximately five weeks post-onset of symptoms). Dogs which had been administered intranasal vaccine four weeks prior to virulent B. bronchiseptica challenge displayed little to no bacterial shedding within three weeks of exposure to the virulent ...
