Many many thanks to all the corgis (and their people) who braved the extreme heat today at Fort Woof -- a great time was had by all, my boys are sound asleep on my feet, and I really hope we get to do it again soon (hint hint D-fer's mom -- before he grows up too much!!)
Hey everyone, excited to be part of this site and part of this group. Anyone ever visit the Arlington dog park? I've never seen any other Corgis out there. Tucker would love a play date. :)
Hey All, Its been a while since we did the playdate out at fort woof. Is anyone interested in getting another one together for Thursday the 4th around 7? Mikko really wants to get out of the apartment and run.
it's called tails and trails; it's at 950 SE Green Oaks, you can access the park's info, hours, etc at the city of arlington website or at parksdepartment@arlingtontx.gov
We would also love to meet you guys at Fort Woof, but Labus is so hot, he runs outside to potty and runs back in the house. September would be better for us. The person in Denton, we are close to Denton to, and might be up for that at Wiggly Field. thanks and have a great day!!
Oh I meant September 10th, but I think I can come in this month on the 10th as well. They are about the same distance from Denton, but Fort Worth might be an easier drive.
Could we push it back a little? Maybe at 6:30 or 7? There is no way I can make it home from work, pack up the boys, and make it back to the park by 6. If not, we will just get there as soon as we can. . .
Yea!! We are coming from Bridgeport, so it might be about 6:30 or 7:00. Just Labus and I. Bourdreaux is not real social, he gets spooked real easy. I hope he behaves around this many Corgis. Have a great day!
Sad to be leaving the group and never made it to any of the meet ups! We just moved to Galveston though, so it's probably more appropriate to be part of the Houston group:) Y'all have fun on the 7th!
Aww -- sorry to see you go, but houston has a HUGE corgi party once a year, and I bet they have smaller parties in between. Seems like it was in October, but I can't remember where I read about it (on the web, somewhere, lol). Mostly pemmies, but cardies are invited too. Have a great time in Galveston!
I am so excitied about the Corgi meet up!!! I can't wait to meet all "My Corgi" friends. And of course, meet all the corgis!!! I will only bring one of my Corgis "Winky", because she is much more social then her brother. I am afraid her brother will be freaked out by so many strangers. C-U Sept 7!!! Can't wait!!!
Your vet can do it, or any grooming place in the area (Petsmart included) Or you can get clippers yourself! Luckily, most corgi "claws" are clear so it's easy to spot the quick and avoid it. BUT if you're going to get them at Target, do NOT buy the target brand - they suck and will leave hangnails that they won't cut through. I think this is a "you get what you pay for" kind of thing... :)
I wanted to give a quick shoutout for our vet's office. We really have the best vet in the world, I think. All the doctors in the office are just so patient and sweet and I just think they're great! SO if you live in Fort Worth and you don't already have a good vet, go check out Harris Parkway Animal Hospital. We see Dr. Young, but we also love Dr. McNeil.
I felt compelled to write this after I called the doc's emergency number the other day for Emma's upset stomach. I must have called him right at dinner time, but he was so patient with me and walked me through all the meds I needed to give her and what steps I needed to take. He walked me through bandaging up her paw last Halloween after she split it open when she stepped on a piece of a broken beer bottle (no thanks to my 18 year old neighbor). That was probably around midnight - and he just acted like I wasn't even troubling him. I've worked with a few vets in my life, and I love Harris Parkway Animal Hospital!
Hey everyone! New to MyCorgi and to the group! We are planning to come down for the meet up, and it just so happens to be the day before Felix's 1st Birthday! If I have time, I'll bring some dog ice cream for all to share. Can't wait to see all the Corgi's!!!!!
Weather for Wdenesday nights playdate is a high of 89 and a low of 59, sounds like we picked a great day to get together. Can't wait to see everyone there!!!
Suneera, I would be totally game except I have no idea when I'll be able to head that way! I normally can't leave McKinney after work until about 4:30, so it will be almost 5:30 when I get home. I'm hoping to leave pretty much right away, but no guarantees. If you can wait for me, we'd be willing to drive!
ioan and Roo are very excited to see the other corgis tomorrow night -- I've made a travel bag (water, poop bags, bug repellent, etc) and they are watching me intently to see when I'll say "in the car!!" We'll get there between 6:30 and 7 and stay until they run their little legs off. . .
Labus and I will not be able to make it to the dog park tonight. He is still limping and I do not want him to get overly excited yet (like do Corgis know what this means?). Please take a pic of all the Corgis, and post them here so I can see them. Sad I will not be able to see them all. How cute!! Have a great time!! Maybe with the cooler weather, we can do some more...
As to the meet up @ Fort Woof today,I don't have a corgi but did live with one for 4 years and still love to watch them as do my daughters.Would anyone here be opposed to us coming just watch y'all play?
