威爾斯柯基犬（英语：Welsh Corgi，又名哥基犬）是一種原產於英國威爾斯的品種，被認為是源自維京人帶來威爾斯的Swedish Vallhund；「柯基」在威爾斯語中是矮犬的意思。

威爾斯柯基犬平均肩高大約25至30公分、重約15公斤，原本培養來放牧牛羊，低矮的身材讓他們免於被牛隻踢到。柯基犬是主動的犬隻並且相當的聰明，是絕佳的夥伴動物，並且在牧羊競賽跟犬隻敏捷競賽中是出色的參賽者。

威爾斯柯基犬通常分成兩個品種：卡提根（Cardigan） 跟潘布魯克（Pembroke）。1934年起美國育犬協會承認他們為不同的品種。卡提根是兩種中較大的、有著較大的圓耳跟狐狸般下垂的尾巴；潘布魯克的特徵則是較圓的耳朵跟較小的身材。潘布魯克的尾巴傳統上是斷尾成平貼的兔尾巴，讓他們看起來像無尾。兩種的毛色皆非常多樣，但在品種間仍有一些差別。

潘布魯克以作為現任英國女王伊莉莎白二世的愛犬著名，女王隨時都養著四隻（喜劇電影《憨豆特工》以女王的愛狗成痴開玩笑；劇中的恐怖份子用槍要脅女王簽字，女王很果斷的回絕說『Never！』可是槍一指到女王的潘布魯克愛犬，愛犬露出此品種標準的無辜表情時，女王馬上乖乖簽字）。
