First-time corgi owner here. Always wanted to own one because it's a full-size dog with half-size legs. What I DIDN'T know about corgis could fill books. Thank goodness there's a relatively large learning curve...
About My Corgi(s):
I only have one corgi, my first, Boomer. I gave him a big dog name because I thought it would be ironic in a fun way, like naming a toy poodle "Fang" or "Killer". Instead, he has grown into his name, as his bark goes to 11. And while he may be a "little dog", he's got a big soul. He's about a year and a half old now (got him July '07), his coloring is sable and white with hints of black on his head, ears, and tail. He's a svelte 37 pounds (the vet said he isn't fat, he's just...dense...like a black hole...that no treat can escape from him).
He loves to walk, run, wrestle, eat, bark, play with kids, eat, shred loofa dogs all over my apartment, randomly run all over my apartment like he's playing a game only he knows the rules to, put things in his mouth that he should, put things in his mouth that he shouldn't (like kids), eat, and swim (never underestimate the buoyancy of the Pembroke Welsh corgi!)
Welcome Craig and Boomer. Boomer has that "are you talking to me" look in his eye. They are a handful aren't they! Worht it just for the entertainment value.
Hiya Craig and Boomer! I love your pictures. What a handsome boy! I can tell that Boomer is a character, just like I can tell Craig is a character from his "about me" and "about my corgi" posts. lol...they are great!
OMG! Your blogs just crack me up, and I totally agree with the fact that books are so not helpful sometimes. Maybe you should publish all your little stories so that there is a "real" book about corgis out there. LOL I would buy it. It is so much more helpful to hear real stories about real dogs instead of a generalization about what they "should" be like. Because mine is so not your typical corgi. And she will tell you that. Looking forward to the next installment... Boomer is adorable.
