We have had corgis for 25 years. Right now I have two corgis. One is 8 and male. The other 6 and female. Based on the breeders recommendation we introduced the female when our first one was 2 years old and well established. She also recommended a female dog and not another male. Our youngest was introduced at about 12 weeks and the two of them have always gotten along well. We feed them in opposite corners of kitchen with no problem. The oldest is the only one that really likes to play and fetch and no problems there. We have only one crate and they seem to take turns wanting to sleep in it. When we go to the dog park together they pick out one dog and totally on instinct work together to herd it into a corner.
As for food I've used Blue buffalo their entire lives. They are a perfect weight and don't get that much exercise. But I've learned from their breeder that what we think is a sufficient amount if food is way too much. They get one half cup twice a day plus one Blue cookie and a raw hide.
My oldest is an alerter. He barks at all sounds and has gotten worse. Finally resorted to a bark collar that sprays him with a scent every time he barks. He hates it but does stop the barking when he has it on. I got it on Amazon.
They do bark at other dogs while on leash but as soon as they get close they are very friendly.
