Cardigan Welsh Corgi versus Chesapeake Bay Retriever: Overview
A very important difference between the Cardigan Welsh Corgi and the Chesapeake Bay Retriever is the size difference between the two dog breeds. The Cardigan Welsh Corgi is a small-sized dog while the Chesapeake Bay Retriever is a medium-sized dog.
Furthermore, the Cardigan Welsh Corgi belongs to the Herding Dogs group. Herding Dogs were bred for moving livestock, including sheep, cattle, and even reindeer. Herding dogs work closely with their human shepherds, and their natural intelligence and responsiveness make them highly trainable. They have high levels of energy, which needs to be channeled properly to prevent destructive behavior. Herding breeds are protective of their people and property and make excellent watchdogs. Their intelligence, agility, and activity level make them well suited to dog sports.
On the other hand, the Chesapeake Bay Retriever belongs to the Sporting Dogs group. Sporting Dogs were bred to help hunters catch and retrieve feathered game. Some sporting dog breeds such as Retrievers, which were built for swimming, were bred to hunt waterfowl in water. Whereas sporting dog breeds like setters, spaniels, and pointing breeds were bred to hunt quail, pheasant, and other game birds nest on grasslands. Many Sporting Group breeds have thick, water-repellent coats that protect them from harsh hunting conditions.
Cardigan Welsh Corgi versus Chesapeake Bay Retriever: Comparison Table
The table below compares the Cardigan Welsh Corgi to the Chesapeake Bay Retriever based on different important factors such as Price, Health, Kid-friendliness, etc.
When a dog breed scores higher for a factor than the other dog breed, the box of the breed that scores higher is shaded green and the box of the breed that scores lower is shaded red. When there is no difference between the breeds for a particular factor then the box is shaded gray for both pets. Also, when the factor is not important in picking a pet, or when the factor cannot be compared between two pets, the box for the factor is shaded gray for both pets

We call these total scores the Better-Pet Scores, as we mentioned earlier. We called this score the Better-Pet score because the better dog breed will have a higher score. This is because the pet will the higher score will have minimal needs and be easier to have as a pet.
The Better-Pet score for the Cardigan Welsh Corgi is 84 out of 125 while the Better-Pet score for the Chesapeake Bay Retriever is 65 out of 125.
Based on their Better-Pet scores, the Cardigan Welsh Corgi is a better pet than the Chesapeake Bay Retriever. So, you should get the Cardigan Welsh Corgi!
Although we have done our best to analyze these two dog breeds in a very unbiased way, however, we will like to let you know that there are some dog attributes that cannot be assigned a number for comparison. We cannot put a number on how cute a dog breed is, for example. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Also, the dog breed that best suits you will depend on your peculiar lifestyle, your taste, and your priorities, which we do not know. So, for you to decide on which breed is right for you, read through the rest of the article to further understand both the Cardigan Welsh Corgi and the Chesapeake Bay Retriever so that you can make your own well-informed decision on which pet to get.

Note that a lot of factors determine how much you can expect to pay for the Cardigan Welsh Corgi puppy or the Chesapeake Bay Retriever puppy. This includes if health screening tests have been performed on the puppy, if the puppy is from a famous pedigree, the US State where the puppy is bred, etc.
Nevertheless, when looking to buy a puppy, look at buying a puppy only from well-established breeders that breed puppies primarily for the love of dogs, and secondarily for profit. Do not buy a puppy from a puppy mill. Puppy mills mass-produce puppies in bad living conditions for maximum profit.
You may also consider adopting a dog instead of buying a dog.
The Intelligence of the Cardigan Welsh Corgi versus the Intelligence of the Chesapeake Bay Retriever
| Cardigan Welsh Corgi | Chesapeake Bay Retriever | |
|---|---|---|
| Intelligence Rank | 26 out of 130 dog breeds | 27 out of 130 dog breeds |
| Trainability | Tend To Learn New Commands After 5 To 15 Repetitions | Tend To Learn New Commands After 15 To 25 Repetitions |
Professor Stanley Coren, the famous psychology/neuropsychological professor and, dog lover/trainer measured and ranked the intelligence of about 130 different dog breeds.
According to Prof. Stanley Coren, the total intelligence that a dog demonstrates is the addition of three types of intelligence. These intelligence types are:
Prof. Coren showed that the Working/Obedience Intelligence of different dog breeds can be measured reliably. Thus, he was able to rank different dog breeds based on their Working/Obedience Intelligence.
This is important because according to Prof. Coren, 51 percent of a dog`s intelligence comes from its genes while 49 percent of a dog`s intelligence comes from the dog`s environmental circumstances.
To rank the intelligence of dog breeds, Prof. Coren employed the help of 208 dog obedience judges in North America to fill out a detailed survey on dog obedience. This number represented more than half of all of these judges in North America at the time. He also employed 63 veterinarians and 14 guard dog experts to collect data on the personality of different dog breeds.
Prof. Coren found that the Cardigan Welsh Corgi has an obedience intelligence rank of 26 out of 130 dog breeds. The Cardigan Welsh Corgi belongs to the `Excellent Working Dogs` category. This means that Cardigan Welsh Corgis tend to learn new commands after 5 to 15 repetitions.
The Chesapeake Bay Retriever has an obedience intelligence rank of 27 out of 130 dog breeds. The Chesapeake Bay Retriever belongs to the `Above Average Working Dogs` category. This means that Chesapeake Bay Retrievers tend to learn new commands after 15 to 25 repetitions.
The Cardigan Welsh Corgi is more intelligent than the Chesapeake Bay Retriever.
However, Prof. Coren noted that a dog should not be judged based on its intelligence alone, that other factors such as sociability, adorability, and compatibility with the owner are other very important factors that new dog owners need to consider when deciding on a new dog.
The Popularity of Cardigan Welsh Corgi versus Popularity of Chesapeake Bay Retriever
Every year, the American Kennel Club (AKC) publishes information on how popular a dog breed is in that particular year. The AKC gets the popularity information of a breed from how many dogs of that breed the owners register with the AKC every year. The AKC collects this data for about 200 dog breeds. The AKC collects this data for purebred dogs only(no mixed or hybrid dogs).
The graphs and the table below show the popularity of the Cardigan Welsh Corgi and the Chesapeake Bay Retriever over the years.
Based on the AKC popularity data over the years, the Chesapeake Bay Retriever is more popular with dog owners than the Cardigan Welsh Corgi.

Health Problems of Cardigan Welsh Corgi versus Health Problems of Chesapeake Bay Retriever
Every dog breed has its own set of health problems that it has a tendency to develop. There is nothing like a perfect dog breed.
Both the Cardigan Welsh Corgi and the Chesapeake Bay Retriever are prone to certain genetic health conditions. The Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) is the organization that keeps track of health problems in dogs. Based on the extensive records that the OFA keeps, the OFA knows what health problems each dog breed is naturally prone to develop. Hence, the OFA recommends which health screening that breeders should perform on a dog breed to make sure that the breeders won`t breed `defective` dog parents that can pass down defective genes to their puppy offspring.
The more health problems a dog breed is prone to develop, the more health tests the OFA will recommend for that dog breed.
Based on our review of OFA records, we found that the Chesapeake Bay Retriever is prone to more genetic health problems than the Cardigan Welsh Corgi.
This is because the OFA recommends more screening health tests for the Chesapeake Bay Retriever than for the Cardigan Welsh Corgi.
4 health tests are recommended for Cardigan Welsh Corgi while 8 tests are recommended for the Chesapeake Bay Retriever.
Below is a detailed discussion of health problems in Cardigan Welsh Corgis and in Chesapeake Bay Retrievers.
Cardigan Welsh Corgi Health Problems
Cardigan Welsh Corgis are genetically prone to certain health problems. However, breeders can reduce the chances of producing Cardigan Welsh Corgi puppies with genetic defects by making sure that a puppy`s parents are free from genetic health problems before allowing the parent to make puppies.
The OFA provides breeders recommendations on which genetic diseases that breeders should screen their dog parents and puppies for.
If you want a Cardigan Welsh Corgi puppy that will grow up to be healthy, make sure that your Cardigan Welsh Corgi breeder screens your puppy or your puppy`s parents for the health problems that the OFA recommends for your puppy`s breed. This will increase the chances that your puppy is free from genetic defects.
The following are the health tests that Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) recommends that breeders should screen Cardigan Welsh Corgis for:

Chesapeake Bay Retriever Health Problems
Chesapeake Bay Retrievers are genetically prone to certain health problems. However, breeders can reduce the chances of producing Chesapeake Bay Retriever puppies with genetic defects by making sure that a puppy`s parents are free from genetic health problems before allowing the parent to make puppies.
The OFA provides breeders recommendations on which genetic diseases that breeders should screen their dog parents and puppies for.
If you want a Chesapeake Bay Retriever puppy that will grow up to be healthy, make sure that your Chesapeake Bay Retriever breeder screens your puppy or your puppy`s parents for the health problems that the OFA recommends for your puppy`s breed.

The genetic diseases that were found to commonly occur in Chesapeake Bay Retrievers, and how common these diseases are in Chesapeake Bay Retrievers relative to other dog breeds, are given below:
The table below lists the common health problems in Cardigan Welsh Corgi and in Chesapeake Bay Retriever and the rank (prevalence), compared to other dogs, of these health problems in the Cardigan Welsh Corgi and the Chesapeake Bay Retriever:
| Disease | Cardigan Welsh Corgi Rank | Chesapeake Bay Retriever Rank |
|---|---|---|
| Degenerative Myelopathy problems | 10 out of 70 dog breeds | 20 out of 70 dog breeds |

| Congenital Cardiac problems | Not Common | 42 out of 159 dog breeds |
*To learn more about each of these diseases, go to OFA.org and search for the disease.
Again, most of these health problems can be prevented through health screening. Responsible breeders screen male and female dog parents for genetic problems. These breeders will only breed dogs that are free of genetic defects. That way, there is little or no chance that their puppies will grow up to have genetic health problems. Always ask a breeder for the list of health tests the breeder screens their dogs for before buying a puppy from such a breeder.
