This quirky creature is fluffy, funny, and impawsibly cute. With stumpy legs and a constant smile, we totally see why the Queen of England loves her corgis so much.

And she’s not the only one. In fact, corgis are known as internet-famous dogs, with numerous corgifluencers on social media. So when one Twitter user who goes by the handle @soapachu started a thread on corgis, you could have suspected it would go viral. Especially when @soapachu pointed out something so obvious, it’s crazy how we haven’t seen this before.

“Your regular reminder that a corgi crossed with any other breed just ends up looking like a corgi disguised as the other dog,” said the caption of the tweet, which amassed 256.9k likes and 42.2k retweets.

If you've ever wondered how on earth corgis became the most adored dogs on the internet, you should step back and take a very good look at them. The universal popularity of corgis has partly to do with their appearance: chunky bod, long tongue, stumpy legs, and permanently smiling face.

In fact, corgis are not nearly as beautiful as Weimaraners or as perfect as Labrador retrievers, but they’re beautiful in their own, very cute way. Their approachable character and super optimistic vibes are what make them stand out from other dog breeds. Corgis' fun looks perfectly work in an online environment ruled by funny and cutesy animals.

When you think about it, corgis make perfect meme material with their "what now?" resting pose which reflects our own state of being.

No wonder social media is currently ruled by corgi accounts where people are sharing pics of their fluffy friends daily. Rachel, a founder of the UKDogsofInsta page on Instagram, believes that corgis' popularity on the internet has fueled the breed’s renaissance in real life.

“People are hugely influenced by what they see online and it is no surprise that some of the dogs that are most popular on Instagram are impacting on the popularity of dog breeds in real life.”

“This is great news for the Pembroke Welsh corgi, which is a breed that has long been struggling to get noticed in the UK,” Rachel told the press.

It only poses logistical questions if the Corgi was the father. :D

I think there would be logistical problems with the pregnancy if the corgi was the mother. In cases where there is one dog much bigger, that one is pretty much always the mother.

My husband's former boss had a yorkie and a great Dane and they ended up having a litter. I can't remember which was the female and I never got to see the puppies but I really really wanted one. That may be why my husband kept "forgetting" to bring me pictures lol.
