Milo seemed to be handling it pretty well, and those tips sound great - and easy for me too. Thanks!

Finnigan's body is mostly black and the heat doesn't seem to bother him. we live in an apartment too so he's only outside when we take him out to go potty. We save the real walks for after th sun has gone down so he doesn't burn his paws. A good brushing and a trip to the groomer gets all the loose hair off which helps keep him cool.

Hey everyone! We just moved in to our apartment in Tempe! We're from Philly, and I've gotta ask you guys for some tips on how to take care of a predominantly black-furred corgi in the heat out here!

Yay! My house closed just yesterday (a day later than planned because of some problem where the people doing the documents were backed up), and I couldn't be happier! My dream is getting closer. XD

Daww its no big deal~ xD Slowly he'll start to learn~ He doesn't go on potty pads, he ends up just chewing them up actually. xD

Ahhh.. just got back from Williams because i went camping from friday till today. we were supposed to head out tomorrow morning but everyone thought it was better to go home today. x3 It was a nice experience. :)

I'm probably going to be free on the 25th. We pushed our moving day to the 30th because my dad had plans on the 25th to go do something with my oldest brother and he is going to help us move with his truck. Ahh, we'll have to get it all done from 4pm (hot!) to whenever my dad has to leave.

Abbea - I totally understand! I know it's crazy getting a place and then trying to get a house just the way you want it along with work and a husband AND trying to keep the pup utd on their first years worth of shots and whether you get it fixed..

Michi- Sorry about your pops. Have you tried doing potty pads??? Alot of smaller dogs really learn to it quick and then you just start moving the potty pad closer and closer to the door and then outside and closer and closer to where you want them to go. -- Another note I wouldn't do a toy poo... It's ALOT to keep up with the grooming unless you just keep them shaved short, Corgi's do have ALOT of hairs... I just blew out Bull and it looked like a dog blew up in our back room... and that was just one... I have 3! for me to really really groom them and get all of their undercoat gone it takes about 4 hours... once a month... but my boys both have very dense coats and maddie is my easiest.

Thank goodness they're inside now like how they used to be. I only see my father every other weekend so i'm glad about that. What more if he actually lived here.

Gizmo can't seem to NOT pee in the carpet. =/ I mean yeah he'll go outside to pee but he still goes inside a lot. :( Idk. I guess i'm partly upset with myself because i don't get to spend ALL my time with the dogs. I'm fine with skippy because he knows to go outside. Occasionally he'll pee in the house somewhere that we don't know of but other than that hes fine. My father came home and he wanted them either outside or inside w/ confinement. =/ Gizmo was in his kennel most of the weekend and Skippy was in the laundry room. *Sigh* Idk what to do. I feel like all that training/progress has been just wiped away. No one thinks in my family that its a good time for me to get a corgi. I mean i know we're going through a lot right now but i hate that once i have a chance to finally get a corgi, i can't take the chance. I'll just have to wait till i move out i guess? or when i'm done with college? I don't know. It seems like there is never a right time to get a puppy. :( My friend has a miniature poodle that is going to have puppies and he was saying that he'd give one to us, but its still not what i want. My mom also talks about the shedding factor. How she hates when there is dog hair all over the place. :( Bah. I guess it'll just take me a couple of years to get my own puppy that i will me determined to train and raise correctly. >_<'

Oh, I see.. That makes sense. Well perhaps I want to wait for my own sanity then. Haha. I'm not sure how to handle all the moving and a puppy all at once, especially since this will be my first dog away from my parents. I'm sure it could be done, but I'm just not experienced enough.
