About Me:
A relatively new corgi fan. I work with ornamental plants and the people who grow and sell them. Growing up on a dairy farm fostered my love of all things living, and I especially like working with animals. I am outgoing, adventurous, and active, so corgis seemed like a great breed for my first dog. My husband grew up with coonhounds, and was skeptical of a "small" dog, but he finds corgis to be as neat as I do!
Welsh Corgi Breeder?
No

About My Corgi(s):
I have two corgis: Junebug and Elvis
Junebug is my first corgi. She's now 3, and we have had some serious fun together. I love corgis, and am thrilled when I see another one. However, Junebug is very small....16 lbs! But her personality is not limited by her size. She's all corgi! Fetch is her favorite activity, but we also walk, swim, rollerblade, and hike. She's a good student, having successfully completed her first obedience class and is now working on a repetoir of tricks. But mostly, Junebug is nuts :)

Elvis is much like his namesake: relaxed, handsome, self-confident, and good with the ladies (maybe when he gets older he'll develop a fondness for sequins and polyester??)

On a visit home, we were out on the horses. June was riding in the cart, but she wanted out. She kept up with my horse for a bit, but clearly wanted UP! I stopped and put her in the saddle with me, and she rode there like she was born there, even though it was her first experience with horses.
I have:
Pembroke

    Welcome Bonny. . .my Corgis also love playing--especially with their stuffed toys. . .I think between the 3 of them they must have at least 75 stuffed toys. . .they're always getting new toys from friends. . . .

    Welcome Bonny! That's okay about Junebug's size. At 5'1" one of my favorite sayings is that dynamite comes in small packages. :-)

    Hi Bonny & Junebug!

    Since Junebug is 2, she's @ the perfect age to start training Agility. I know that places exist out by you, but I don't know exactly where or who to contact. Please try this website and Email Lise Pratt @www.snapdogs.com. Good luck!

    Hi Bonny, thanks for your advice I appreciate it. It is so wierd because he doesnt always act like that, that is why it is hard to figure out, I think he just wants to be where the fun is and not to be left out! It also confuses me why he jumps up at me, when he thinks something is not right, isnt he suppose to be the one protecting us, lol!!!

    Thanks for the friend add. I need to update his photos on my page, I was taking pictures today and he is just a little stinker.....not liking the camera, he really never did, I always had to bribe him....but not as much anymore. It seems as though he really is starting to not like the camera again and I love pictures! He makes me laugh, because he purposely looks away from the camera when he knows I am going to take his picture, I think thats why he has such cute ears.....lots of ear shots today, I am going to have to post them. lol

    Lance can sit pretty still.....but still just look away from the camera....its not that he cant sit still he just doesnt want his picture taken! He just turned 3 so he doesnt have as much puppy energy....but still has enough. He has always been on the calm side though! I've heard cardis can be calmer than pems. Gotta love em all.

    elvis!!!!! i love it!!!! we were thinking lucy and ricky for my 2 but we didnt want to stray too far from their pound names. elvis was definitely an option- especially since we had a trip planned to graceland- but Astro stuck when he responded.
    they are adorable!
