<p>I'm not sure if this is bad luck or a bad decision on my part. I have been on a waiting list for my very own corgi since April and it is still not looking very good. There have been numerous missed/failed pregnancies or very small litters (1-3 pups, not all of them make it). </p>

<p>As a first time dog owner, I'm not really quite sure how this process goes. It seemed to be the best option on the west coast that I could locate. The breeder is responsive, does testing, shows her dogs, the place is clean ect. I think she is a very nice lady and I want to believe every good thing, but I'm worried I may just be naive? I keep getting my hopes up, only to be disappointed.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Is this wait normal? How long is too long? Multiple times i have considered throwing a fit or ditching my deposit, but I know it wouldn't do much good. </p>

<p>Help!! :( How long was your search for your corgi?</p> Is a corgi suitable for me?tag:mycorgi.com,2014-08-27:1150197:Topic:18816082014-08-27T09:27:49.901ZNatsuhi Shirosakihttp://mycorgi.com/profile/NatsuhiShirosaki
<p>Hi Everyone,</p>
<p></p>
<p>I am new here and new to corgis so I would really really appreciate your thoughts. In advance I apologize for the essay.</p>
<p></p>

<p>I have always loved animals since I was young, be it chicken, rabbits, cats, turtles, dogs, etc. I have always lived with dogs during childhood although I did not personally take full responsibility of it, we usually share between each family member, currently I take full responsibility owning a rabbit. so if…</p>
<p>Hi Everyone,</p>
<p></p>
<p>I am new here and new to corgis so I would really really appreciate your thoughts. In advance I apologize for the essay.</p>
<p></p>
<p>My background:</p>
<p>I have always loved animals since I was young, be it chicken, rabbits, cats, turtles, dogs, etc. I have always lived with dogs during childhood although I did not personally take full responsibility of it, we usually share between each family member, currently I take full responsibility owning a rabbit. so if i own a dog it will be the first time I take full responsibility for it.</p>
<p></p>
<p>How I came to love corgi:</p>
<p>as mentioned I have always loved dogs regardless of the breed, although big-giant breed size does intimidate me a little, but I never favor/obsessed a certain breed. However! as soon as I saw a corgi I feel "this is the one!"</p>
<p></p>
<p>My situation:</p>
<p>I want to have a dog (pretty dead set on getting a corgi) in future when everything settle down. Since I currently do not have the time to have a dog and I want to make sure I own a dog responsibly and commit to give the best to it. So I have been researching literally almost everything about corgi including general guide to owning a dog. </p>
<p></p>
<p>My problem:</p>
<p>After loads of research about corgi traits, I am confident I can handle with most of them except two:</p>
<p>STUBBORNESS and high pitched BARKING</p>
<p></p>
<p>1> stubbornness, I know that proper training can "fix" this problem and that establishing the pack leader role is essential, however I found that a lot of people here even the most experienced one on corgi has problem with their stubbornness. for example planting feet on walks, ignoring commands....although I know this vary from dogs to dogs but betting entirely on "I hope I get the dog that obeys more that the other" is not a good plan. I want an obedient dog....</p>
<p></p>
<p>2> The reason why I avoid a small breed is because of their high pitched barking and I know that some corgis have really high pitched bark and that they bark A LOT. again, betting on getting a corgi that doesn't bark a lot is a unreliable gamble. I don't mind a low pitch bark, though.</p>
<p></p>
<p>So based on the 2 problem I mentioned, do you think a corgi is suitable for me? are these two setbacks workable? or are they a red flag as to not get a corgi? I really really really want one but I am might reluctantly drop the idea if you think a corgi is not suitable for me.</p>

We recently adopted a 3 yr old male Pembroke that after 4 weeks is not getting along with our female 3 yr old corgi. We have had ours since a puppy . The male is a big burly boy, weighing in at 40 lbs and not fat. We were helping out a couple who had to relocate suddenly and we really wanted it to work and add another corgi to our home . We have grown to love him but we need to do what's best for our female.<br />

We recently adopted a 3 yr old male Pembroke that after 4 weeks is not getting along with our female 3 yr old corgi. We have had ours since a puppy . The male is a big burly boy, weighing in at 40 lbs and not fat. We were helping out a couple who had to relocate suddenly and we really wanted it to work and add another corgi to our home . We have grown to love him but we need to do what's best for our female.<br />
Rufus, the male, that we would like to rehome is a lovely burly but skittish boy. He had a "sister" cardi but has no interest in our female. She tries! He is not well trained but has picked up our training pretty well. He doesn't run, stays with us, stays in the yard, doesn't bark, loves people, even mailmen!<br />
He is not a picky eater, he LOVES to walk and exercise and loves the hose. He can hike all day and likes squirrels. Cats that aren't supposed to be in the yard are up for a chase but is fine with our 2.<br />
He doesn't like "intact" male dogs. He would prefer that small children don't run up to him on a walk with their hands to his face. Over excited puppies scare him.<br />
He is a quirky boy and would benefit from obedience training.<br />
He is not a bigs cuddler at least yet . He sleeps on his bed, no interest in a crate (our f sleeps in a crate and he just looks in it)<br />
We would love to find him a place to run, chase and smile.<br />
We are in Southern California(orange county) Monthly Subscription Box Plans for Dogs. Any good?tag:mycorgi.com,2013-02-08:1150197:Topic:17004352013-02-08T15:26:50.315ZRachelle Nhttp://mycorgi.com/profile/RachelleN
I just subscribed to Pawalla <a href="http://www.pawalla.com/how-it-works/">http://www.pawalla.com/how-it-works/</a> and was wondering if anyone else has subscribed to one of those monthly box subscription plans for dogs.<br />
<br />
I haven't received the box yet. I'm hoping that they don't include any products from China in it. Is anyone subscribed to a monthly plan that actually states that all of its boxes only contain products made in the USA?

<p>I am looking for, what for me will be the holy grail of corgi puppies. I am looking for a male pem puppy that is a black-headed tri and is...a fluffy! Can anyone please keep an ear to the ground for me. I hate to be a snob but I would also like a AKC breeder that tests for DM. I am in Atlanta but I am willing to make something happen anywhere in the eastern US. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I hope this isn't against the mycorgi rules. If so, please delete me Sam. I am sorry.</p>

His name is Monty and it seems he doesn't like little children or other dogs, so maybe no one here can take him, but it's worth a shot!<br/><br/><a href="http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/16508332">http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/16508332</a><br/><br/><p style="text-align: left;"><img src="http://photocache.petfinder.com/fotos/AZ333/AZ333.16508332-1-x.jpg"/></p>
