Corgis With Round Ears, Explained

Ask any pet owner to scroll through the image gallery on their phones. Hundreds of pics will invariably pop up, revealing their glorious animal friend in adorable poses.

But what you may have seen recently on social media is something a bit different. It's corgis with round ears – and they're adorable.

Where do the corgis with the round ears​​ come from?

It all seems a bit odd, a little bit out of the ordinary... So what's REALLY going on here!

​The strange mutation you see before you is thankfully NOT the result of some bizarre breeding experiment. It’s just a mind-bendingly cute image created with the help of an app.

Yes, the app is transforming dogs and cats, and of course, your favourite corgis, into cute new creatures with round and furry mouse ears.

The apps allow you to manipulate images with different photo editing options. The rounded ear feature caught on quickly, with pet owners loving the way the small change transforms the look of the whole animal.

The app’s realistic effect is incredibly impressive, with the round Mickey Mouse ears seamlessly blending in to match each individual animal’s face, shape and colouring.

​That's why so many people are assuming they're real!

What's the app to give my corgi round ears?

​There's two (and probably more!) great options you can use to give round ears to you corgi.

​1. Cymera is hugely popular with pet owners in Japan and the US. This easy-to-use app makes editing pictures a breeze, meaning your corgi selfie game is about to level up. To get in on the photo trend, the Cymera app can be downloaded for Android and for iOS.

2. Meitu is more recent, and it has come out of China. Meitu is an all-in-one photo and video free editor on mobile, which gives you everything you need to create edits of your pet. You can download it for Android and for iOS.
​
Simply download the apps to your phone and start editing. 

You mean round eared corgis aren't real?

Sadly not! This cute little creature isn't available to find in real life, so for now, you'll have to be content with seeing them online.

But that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t get a corgi of your own. Pointy ears are just as cute – and much healthier for the breed. And there's nothing like seeing their little face when you get home from a long day.

Final Thoughts on Corgis with Round Ears

As we all know, the best photo editing apps can improve and enhance even your best photos, whether you’re a casual photographer, a pro or a social media influencer.  And that's definitely what's going on here!

So while these corgis may be exclusive for social media – that doesn't make them any less fun to look at. We recommend checking out #corgimouseears on Instagram for more.
