Cardigan Welsh Corgi versus Ibizan Hound

Cardigan Welsh Corgi versus Ibizan Hound: Overview

A very important difference between the Cardigan Welsh Corgi and the Ibizan Hound is the size difference between the two dog breeds. The Cardigan Welsh Corgi is a small-sized dog while the Ibizan Hound 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 Ibizan Hound belongs to the Hound Dogs group. Hound Dogs were bred to pursue and hunt warm-blooded animals. Hounds hunt by using their good sight or their good sense of smell. Dogs that belong to the Hound Group have strong prey drives and often will stop at nothing to catch what they are pursuing.

Cardigan Welsh Corgi versus Ibizan Hound: Comparison Table

The table below compares the Cardigan Welsh Corgi to the Ibizan Hound 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

Most of the factors in the table for each dog breed are ranked on a scale of 1 to 5. “1” means “worst”, and “5” means “best”.

However, some factors such as “Price”, “Average Lifespan”, etc. cannot be on a scale of 1 to 5, so they are not on a scale of 1 to 5 in the comparison table.

Later in this article, we will further explain each factor as it applies to the Cardigan Welsh Corgi and the Ibizan Hound

    Next, we added the scores of the factors that can be added together for the Cardigan Welsh Corgi in the table (that is, `Ease of Grooming` score + `General Health` score + `Calmness` score + …etc) and we compared it to the corresponding total score for the Ibizan Hound. 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 Ibizan Hound is 84 out of 125.

    Based on their Better-Pet scores, the Ibizan Hound is not better or worse than the Cardigan Welsh Corgi. So, you can get the Ibizan Hound or 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 Ibizan Hound so that you can make your own well-informed decision on which pet to get.

    Temperament of the Ibizan Hound Versus the Cardigan Welsh Corgi

    The Ibizan Hound has a better temperament than the Cardigan Welsh Corgi.

    This is because the temperament score for the Ibizan Hound is 91.2 percent while the temperament score for the Cardigan Welsh Corgi is 80.5 percent, according to the American Temperament Test Society (ATTS).

    The American Temperament Test Society (ATTS) is a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide fair and objective evaluations of the temperaments of dog breeds.

    Dog breeds with low temperament scores tend to show unprovoked aggression, they easily panic without quickly recovering from the panic, and they tend to avoid people. However, dog breeds with high temperament scores are not aggressive and are not shy. Also, these dogs are generally friendly and are protective of their owners.

    The average temperament score across all dog breeds (over 250 breeds) is 83.7 percent.

    With its temperament score of 80.5 percent, the Cardigan Welsh Corgi has a below-average temperament compared to other dog breeds.

    With its temperament score of 91.2 percent, the Ibizan Hound has an above-average temperament compared to other dog breeds.

    The ATTS obtained the temperament scores of the Cardigan Welsh Corgi and the Ibizan Hound by measuring the temperaments of 77 Cardigan Welsh Corgis and 34 Ibizan Hounds.

    The Intelligence of the Cardigan Welsh Corgi versus the Intelligence of the Ibizan Hound

    Cardigan Welsh Corgi Ibizan Hound
    Intelligence Rank 26 out of 130 dog breeds 53 out of 130 dog breeds
    Trainability Tend To Learn New Commands After 5 To 15 Repetitions Tend To Learn New Commands After 25 To 40 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:

  • Instinctive Intelligence: This is the natural intelligence a dog has because of what the dog was bred for. This type of intelligence comes from instinct. For example, dog breeds that were bred for guarding will have high `guarding` instinctive intelligence, while dog breeds that were bred for hunting will what high `hunting` instinctive intelligence. However, you cannot compare the intelligence of dog breeds based on instinctive intelligence because such a comparison will not make sense.
  • Adaptive Intelligence (learning and problem-solving ability): This indicates what a dog can learn to do for himself or herself. It includes learning and benefiting from experience with his environment, solving new problems, and so forth. Adaptive intelligence is specific to each dog, and not breed specific. Thus, two dogs can have remarkably different levels of adaptive intelligence even if they are of the same breed.
  • Working/Obedience Intelligence: This intelligence is the closest to what we might call school-learning ability and it is based upon what the dog can learn to do when instructed by humans. Importantly, different dog breeds have different learning abilities. Also, science has shown that some dog breeds can learn faster than some other breeds. This means certain dog breeds tend to have higher working/obedience intelligence than some other breeds. Dogs with high Working/Obedience Intelligence are smart and easy to train.
  • 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 Ibizan Hound has an obedience intelligence rank of 53 out of 130 dog breeds. The Ibizan Hound belongs to the `Average Working/Obedience Intelligence Dogs` category. This means that Ibizan Hounds tend to learn new commands after 25 to 40 repetitions.

    The Cardigan Welsh Corgi is more intelligent than the Ibizan Hound.

    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 Ibizan Hound

    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 Ibizan Hound over the years.

    Based on the AKC popularity data over the years, the Cardigan Welsh Corgi is more popular with dog owners than the Ibizan Hound.

    Health Problems of Cardigan Welsh Corgi versus Health Problems of Ibizan Hound

    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 Ibizan Hound 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 Ibizan Hound is prone to the same number of genetic health problems as the Cardigan Welsh Corgi.

    4 health tests are recommended for Cardigan Welsh Corgi while 4 tests are recommended for the Ibizan Hound.

    Below is a detailed discussion of health problems in Cardigan Welsh Corgis and in Ibizan Hounds.

    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:

  • approved laboratory
  • Eye Examination
  • Hip Dysplasia
  • Progressive Retinal Atrophy 3 (PRA) DNA Test

    If you want a Ibizan Hound puppy that will grow up to be healthy, make sure that your Ibizan Hound 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 Ibizan Hounds for:

  • Autoimmune thyroiditis
  • Congenital Deafness
  • Eye Examination
  • Hip Dysplasia

  • Thyroid problems: Rank 43 out of 115 Dog Breeds
  • Patella problems: Rank 45 out of 145 Dog Breeds
  • Elbow problems: Rank 84 out of 144 Dog Breeds

    Disease Cardigan Welsh Corgi Rank Ibizan Hound Rank
    Degenerative Myelopathy problems 10 out of 70 dog breeds Not Common
    Hips problems 34 out of 198 dog breeds 193 out of 198 dog breeds
    Thyroid problems 43 out of 115 dog breeds 24 out of 115 dog breeds

    Congenital Cardiac problems Not Common 5 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.
