There is a pretty good size group of corgis that meet up at the small dog side of Huntington Beach Dog Park in Central Park (not the beach) every Sunday from 10am - 12pm (most show up around 11 am).  Located on the corner of Edwards St. and Inlet Dr.

Hopefully we will see you there sometime!

Goodbye my beloved SoCal corgis! I found a good job opportunity in SF so Yuki and I will be moving up to NorCal in the coming weeks!
I am sorry! Yuki and I LOVE YOU ALL!!! <3 <3 <3

Congrats on your job! Your first priority is to get pictures of Yuki in front of SF landmarks and post them on your site, then you can eat or whatever.

Redondo Beach meetups! Going to start Huntington Beach also!

Can you guys recommend some good dog food brands?  My girl has such a sensitive stomach.  Any suggestions are much appreciated:)

Corgi Fun Day coming up

http://www.pwccsc.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/CorgiFunDay2012.pdf

I went last year and if I don't have to go to a people reunion I will be there with Maya.  I will know more in a couple of weeks.  This is a great event and last year I met one of the mycorgi corgis - it was a lovely day. 

Hello, I wanted to post that I have and a small pet stroller (in used good condition) that I would like to give to someone locally that could use it for their small corgi.  I had corgis that had DM and I had purchased the item for them.  I have attached a picture.  If you are interested, please contact me.

hey luis, check out wash n paws. they're a mobile grooming service and i love them!

I'm so glad my husband is out of service.. now brody gets more attention time! :P

we can't wait to go back to California for a vaycay in oct! 

Any Poso Creek Corgis in Santa Clarita?  We have Max & Sonic - have seen a few others in the area.  Perhaps a dog park meet & greet?

Cadi (short for Cadbury) is from Poso Creek and we live in Santa Clarita... but you know that already. We are definitely interested in a dog park meet & greet. Hopefully you're able to find other Poso Creek Corgis and we can make it a big meet & greet!!

hey fellow corgi lovers just a heads up that the 16th annual SoCalCorgiPicnic is coming up on the 15th of September if you would like to join please go to this site and check out whats happening http://socalcorgipicnic.blogspot.com/

Hi Everyone,

I was just at the Pasadena Humane society and found the cutest corgi. 

http://www.petharbor.com/pet.asp?uaid=PSDN.A315392

Cutest Corgi fella needs a home- Pasadena, CA!! 

This DOG - ID#A315392

Male, tan and white Welsh Corgi - Pembroke.

About 2 years and 1 month old.

At the shelter since Sep 29, 2012.

This information is 1 hour old.

What a cute guy!  We have 2 Pembs and 2 Golden Retrievers - can't have another - but someone should step up!

Since I work in Pasadena, I emailed the link to all my coworkers and posted it on my facebook. Hopefully he finds an everlasting home.

i just got back from the humane societyt yo check him out and talk to them.

he was turned in as a stray. his left eye is a bit bloodshot they said it could just be irritated due to hime being found in a dirt lot. he is very mark happy he marked the people that found him. he is 2 years old unaltered. so he is marks everything, he is also very protective of humans. the people that found him took him home for a night and he would growl at there friends. he needs obedience training he let me pet him and would rub himself on my hand when i was touching the kennel. he barks a lot and knows the Sit command. if you think you are a good home for him please call them and see if you can get on the wait list.

also he will be available on the 4th of october so call at exactly 11 to see if he has been adopted.

If Luis saw him with a red eye today, and he is available in 2 days, that doesn't sound like he was there very long? What do they do to try to find the owner? He doesn't look like he has been on the street very long.

yes i saw him this morning and hes been there since the 29th they said that there is a 5 day mandatory hold incase the owner is looking for him which is up on the 4th.

I must commend everyone in the socal corgis group. We are a special bunch with big squishy hearts!

Any corgi meet ups happening? I am getting one this summer but would LOVE to come meet all your furry friends and their personalities.

SoCal CORGI NATION Beach Day!!! 

Saturday, February 9, 2013 @ 1pm 

"Alex Mooney had a great to idea to get together again for another corgi beach day!!! So gather up your corgis and let's do this! :) BYO beach gear, snacks/lunch/drinks etc. and meet about 1 pm.

Exact location on the beach TBD, but most likely will be the same place we met last time. Will post directions closer to the date."

Who's going?!

we will definitely be there!

Sounds fun... Moira and Richie will be there

Next Saturday, Feb 9 @ 1:00pm " We are meeting close to PCH and Goldenwest. Just north of lifeguard station 22 at the south end of the dog beach." -Pickles da Corgi

I want to be prepared- what do I bring for the meters and where do I park if the lot is full? Snickers will control the weather.

9 rules for a Corgi meetup at the beach! My cousin shared this with me today! So cute!! I think I see some familiar puffypants! 

>>@Snickmom- There are two parking lots between Seapoint and Goldenwest that service Huntington Dog Beach. These parking lots now feature electronic parking meters that print out parking passes for your dashboard. The cost is $1.50 per hour. These machines take Visa/MC, currency, and coins. Additionally, there is metered parking along PCH at the Goldenwest end of Dog Beach. FYI Dog Beach portion is located on Pacific Coast Highway between Seapoint Ave, and 21st Street.

I saw in a video what looked like a Pembroke with a tail. Can anyone vouch for that!?

@ Caitlin Randolph -- It's possible.  There is a common misnomer that Pems are all born without tails.  In fact, a lot of Pems are born with tails, but some owners choose to dock their tails either out of safety/health concerns as a working dog or simply to carry out a tradition of Pems having docked tails.  For generations Pems have had their tails docked because Corgis were seen/used as working dogs on farms.  Breeders began to find ways to breed Pems so they are born naturally without tails, but there were always some born with tails (which, back in the day, they eventually docked) -- this is where the misnomer of "all Pembrokes have no tails" came from.  Because of anti-docking laws in some countries (especially in the UK), more Pems are seen WITH tails nowadays.  It's kind of like how some people dock the tails of their Cardi's thinking they have a Pem or thinking it looks better without a tail.  Hope that answers your question.

@Jay & Bentley I also believed that Pem's were born without tails until about a year ago. Ever since I am on the hunt for a good breeder who doesn't dock their tails or at least a few dogs from the litter so I can have a selection from personalities, not reserve one before. I have not had any luck within California so when I saw a video from the Southern California meetup on the beach with a Pem with a tail I was hoping they could point me in the direction of where they got their dog. Any help would be great!

@Caitlin Randolph I happen to have a tailed pem but we weren't at the socal corgi beach day. If you are looking for a tailed pem, it may be hard to find through a reputable breeder. Like Jay&Bentley said more pems are seen WITH tails nowadays. though its not unheard of, there are a handful of tailed pems in southern California. I think it will be hard to find a reputable breeder who is willing to not dock tails as reputable breeders breed to breed standard (try saying that 5 times fast!). I got my pem from a back yard breeder (obviously not the best choice in breeders) and while I do admit his tail is quite an endearing quality, he lacks in other qualities that my other akc, docked, reputable breeder pem has (so I guess I learned my lesson there, but we love him just the same!). So I hope you will be able to find your dream pem! The more breeders you talk to, you may be able to find one who will be willing to leave the tail. I know how tough it is looking in California for a good breeder within a budget cause I've been down that road as well! Good luck! (maybe try breeders out of state willing to ship? just a thought!)

@ Caitlin Randolph -- Is there a specific reason you are looking for a Pembroke with a tail and not just a Cardigan?  Cardi's are only on average 10lbs heavier than Pems, and for the most part they all have tails (and larger ears than Pems).  But, if you really have your heart set on a Pem with a tail, I suggest you try a Pembroke Welsh Corgi Rescue organization.  It may be a long shot to find a 9 week old puppy to start off with, but if there is anybody out there in contact with more Corgi's.. it would be them.  http://www.pembrokecorgi.org/rescue_network.html

Be careful about breeders (both private and "larger" scale) -- some can be pretty shady about their lineage and/or mental/physical health history... and you'll be paying a pretty penny for their dogs (I've heard prices range from $500-1200).  If you go through a good rescue organization/person, you can find a perfectly good Corgi for a couple hundred (mostly just to cover the cost of nurturing and personal time to raise a newborn).  I picked up my Bentley for less than $300 from a private rescue.

And I'll tell you this much -- if you want a specific Corgi, I mean with specific traits or characteristics, just be patient.  I wanted a specific Cardi -- I was mostly looking for personality, but I was also looking for either a tri-color or blue merle... it took me 2.5 years to finally find him, but it paid off because we're both happy and his personality suits me.  Patience will pay off, just be prepared to wait a bit.  If I hear anything about someone breeding Pems that have tails in the future, I'll let you know.  Good luck!

I think the dog you are seeing with a tail is a fluffy cardigan- if it's the back and white dog. We asked the owner about her.
