Happy Springtime!
I was wondering how you Virginia corgis cope with the summer.
already, here in Richmond, I do not like to be in the sun
if it's over 60 degrees, unless I can run around...any suggestions or
your own stories of how you all stay cool?! any hotels that you rec'd anywhere that allow dogs that you go to?
Bye,
Court (leila)

Hi all! We're in West Virginia, actually...in Harpers Ferry....but we're still close!

Hey Court - we live in Northern Virginia, but travel through the state to horse shows. Rowan's favorite job is to wade into the water jumps set up for the horses - cools her off and lets me know how deep the water is!! With all my traveling, I don't actually have a difficult time at all finding places that will allow dogs - usually most will with a small extra fee - usually around $10 a night.

Hello everyone! We are located in Norfolk, VA. We have enjoyed looking at your beautiful corgi pictures and look forward to chatting!

Hi there! My name is Badger and I am excited to see so many good-looking VA Corgis!

Wow. We've had some pretty crazy weather lately.

Hi all, I'm looking for a breeder in VA. Any recommendations? Thank you1

Hello everyone.. My name is Nina and I am from Chesapeake, Va. Which is Hampton roads..... I am a military wife and a corgi lover... We have two Pembroke Corgi's Allie and Bailey who we love the death. Our girl just had her first litter of puppies 3 little bundles of joy.. They are so precious....

I'm with Josh and FT.....I am desperately looking for a purebred Pembroke puppy from a known and qualified breeder. I would be absolutely grateful if anyone could give me any suggestions!

hey guys....it's been awhile, but i have a valid excuse....i finally got a corgi! his name is finnegan (finn or finney for short)....he's a little adorable pembie.....check out the photos!

Know of any good off-leash dog parks in/near Prince William County?

Hi Lorin, congrats on your puppy! Sorry, I haven't been checking this page. Does anyone live in Arlington? I'm looking for a vet or animal clinic. Arlington Animal Hospitals has positive reviews. Any recommendations?

Hi. We are new to the website. How are you all doing? My Corgi, Dewey, was just fixed (neutered) yesterday (9-9-08). He is a bit sore, but still a champ through it all.

hello all, me and yuffie are from virginia beach.... wanted to do an intro, hope to hear from others, and maybe meet a few of yall

CoJack here!...corgi and russell mix here... Not a full cardigan corgi but I am half.....Greetings from Alexandria, VA .. If anyone is close by drop us a line.

Dakota and Alex

Are there any members in the Valley near Winchester or Harrisonburg, VA.?

Anyone else near or in Virginia Beach???

hey Virginia!! Richmond here... Mia is a corgi/chow mix but nonetheless a corgi!! ;o)

Figg and Newton (half-sisters) along with 16 year old Alfalfa from Great Falls, VA - all cardigans

i am new to this website. i got my puppy 4 months ago. he is 6months now. his name is buddy.

OK, it's official. My dad and step mother are looking for a Corgi to live with them on their cattle farm. They lost their Jack Russell (14) a couple months ago and need a dog. The farm has never been without a dog. Usually there have always been two, but the Jack Russell wouldn't let any other dogs around after the Chocolate Lab died. So now, it looks like they are in the market for a Lab and a Corgi. One to sit on their lap and one to lay at their feet.

Anyway, I need ideas for breeders. Where did you get your Virginia Corgi? My dad lives near Charlottesville and works in Richmond. Any ideas? Thanks.

All my corgis have come from NOTZMO kennels (www.corgis.biz) and have been shipped to Virginia from their kennels in Oklahoma and Arkansas. They have it down to a science and I have never had a problem meeting them at the Dulles airport. Sharon Nottingham is a pleasure to deal with and she has some puppies as well as young adult corgis available. I originally used a Virginia Breeder (Cathy Ochs-Cline of Phi-Vestavia) but they are no longer breeding.

Thanks for the info. Looks like they are Cardi breeders. My dad is looking for a Pem.

Hey everyone! Have you heard of Meetup.com? There is a Northern VA Corgi meetup group - the next meetup is February 7 (Saturday).
Here is the link: http://corgi.meetup.com/122/calendar/9147371/

Andy and I are going, if nothing comes up. We had a good time at the last one!

Actually, in the discussion forum above, there is a post called "Corgi Meetup Group in Leesburg, VA" - which is what I'm talking about!

Any Charlottesville corgis?

I am in Lynchburg area! Checkout my website and youtube videos:

In the process of searching for a performance stud, let me know if you know of someone you would recommend! Email me from website, Thanks!

I am a new Corgi owner in Blacksburg (home of Va. Tech) and I got my corgi from Carrie Harris at Dalarno in Culpepper, VA. We made three trips to Culpepper-- to meet her and see tiny puppies, to select our own, and FINALLY to bring Madoc (our little Welsh prince!) home. She does her best to match puppy personality to owners, and I cannot imagine a better match than she helped us with! Her dogs and puppies are wonderful. Anyone else from Blacksburg or the area?

I also got my first Corgi from Carrie in April. Cooper is now 7 months old and has been such a wonderful addition to the family. Carrie does an amazing job with placing her pups in the right home! I live in Va Beach but have a son at Tech, so we get to Blacksburg a couple of times a year......

Cooper is a doll! If you are coming with your son when he returns to VT in August, we should get the pups together. Madoc is from the Trucker/Loretta litter. Who are Cooper's parents?

Thanks- and Madoc is such a handsome boy! I always thought Trucker was a beautiful Tri... Cooper's parents are Sinea and Casper (not one of Carrie's). He is a serious little guy but he makes me laugh out loud a couple of times a day, despite his aloofness. He is the perfect Corgi for me!
Not sure when we'll get back to Blacksburg- my son is a Jr. and takes himself back and forth these days. We try to go up for parents weekend... hadn't really thought about taking Cooper but just might look into it :-)

Casey and I had the good fortune to spend the afternoon at Carrie Harris' home in Culpeper on Saturday and see puppies and her wonderful Corgi crew. Linda Dossett was there who is a professional photographer who worked her magic and took some pictures of Casey at Carrie's. Casey seemed most pleased to be the center of attention for the pictures. Linda's photo gallery is (cut and paste this:) : http://www.scjgraphics.net/about.html Linda has two PWCs of her own. Casey is from a friend/fellow accomplished Corgi breeder, Celie Cassady, who has her kennel 'Stafford's Corgis' in Virginia. Casey just finished his champion title. Just had to echo how lucky we are to have both Carrie Harris and Celie Cassady Cogris in Virginia.

Went to the photo gallery website and clicked on the Trucker/Loretta litter but only could see a trace of Madoc's bunny butt!! Had to laugh. Casey is SO HANDSOME! Is he going to be in the show in Salem Va. next week? He's in conformation, right?

Hi! I saw the Trucker/Loretta litter link on Linda's website, such a small world? Casey will not be in Salem next week, he is in conformation, but Celie will be there with a brother, Captain, of our new corgi pup, whose name is Frankie, she is a daughter from Carrie Harris's Connor and Celie's Corgi, Raven. What a sprite little Frankie is, I feel so fortunate to have these two cuties. Look at Celie's website, it's www.staffordscorgis.com and Casey is in Recent Wins. I think I will be looking to start Casey in agility now that he's finished and has his conformation title.

hello everyone!

I have two corgies and love them with all of my heart..Cliffy and Buster are spoiled rotten..

Hey if anyone is interested there is a show n go in Roanoke next Saturday, and then a match for breed, obed, and rally in Lynchburg on Sunday. Let me know if you are interested and I will follow-up with details ~Brooke

I'm just 35 miles from Roanoke and would love to see a show that involves Pems! Where is it and what time are corgis shown?

I know a Pem will be going to the Roanoke show n go on Sat at this clubs location for obedience/rally:

I will be at this one, practicing breed, rally and obedience with my 2 corgis! Hope to see you there!!

Wondering if anyone lives in Southwestern VA that has a female corgie..

Hi all, my wife, two corgis and myself are moving to Charlottesville VA from Omaha NE in a few weeks. They are Paco and Ruby and are 3 and 2 yrs old, male and female. We'd be interested in meetups in the area. Thanks! - Matt

Matt,
You'll love Virginia! I know there's a Corgi get together in Leesburg. Don't know about closer to Charlottesville. I hope Paco and Ruby like their new home!
