Profile Information:

Hometown:: Arlington, Tx
About Me:: We are a young couple in our fiftys. Our two legged kids are out on thier own so we devote most of our free time to our four legged ones. We have three, a Great Dane (Joni Bell) a Collie Lab mix (Ollie Ann) and our Corgi Fence Climber mix, (BEAR). We are contractors with United Van Lines and travel all over the U.S.A.. Although, we leave the girls home with the house/dog sitter, Bear never leaves our side.
Welsh Corgi Breeder?: No
Website:: http://portraitsbycaven.com
About My Corgi(s):: We rescued Bear from death row at our local dog pound and we both truly believe that he knows it. He is the most loyal dog either of us have ever known and almost always does everything he is told to do. Although, if he does not want to do as he is told he becomes stiff and moves very slow. We call it the robot walk.

Last year Petsmart had a photograph of a Corgi on the cover of it's calender that looked just like Bear and it is our wish to find the owner of the Cover Dog and and hopefully get some mix information.
I have:: Corgi mix

Hi Tammey and Caven,

Thanks for the welcome. Bear looks like he has a wonderful life; he looks so cute sleeping on the dash! My brother is a contractor for a trucking company as well (can't remember the name of the company, however) and travels all over the U.S. with his Australian Cattle Dog, Shadow. They have a great time. Take care our there!

I know he gets a little bored and the only other friend he had died about two weeks ago, if that. We had to put our family dog down, he had bad cancer. Zack is a wild boy and I love that about him. The issue is can someone train me to be a better dog owner...

No we are not under water here. Lafayette is not as prone to flooding as some of our surrounding areas are. Avery Island i believe is still all in tact, and a very fun place to visit, and bring your dog!

Hi :) Thanks for the comment. Can you explain what "New York City Get a rope!" means? I think it's a Texas expression, because I have never heard it. Something about being a cowboy? Please enlighten me!

Bear is great, I love that you rescued him. Linus is his brother in rescue-dog spirit.

Ahh, I get it now! I can speak from experience that we have NO good Mexican here in NYC. It's a common chowhound woe. Thanks for the beta on the expression, I'll have to throw that into my lingo :)
Cheers from NYC, and give Beach a pat on the head from us!

Not to worry!! We keep our eyes out for gators!! It's the coyotes we've got to be leary of!!! Who ever would have thought that would be a concern!!!

Roger

Found him! Wow, he is pretty..emailed the gal with some questions. I have looked at that site before..he is new. Had thought of a rescue but kind of had a our hearts on a puppy. We will see what happens..

Thank you for the heads up!

Thanks and hello to you! How are things in Arlington?

Pimms

Wow! Bear really gets around! I agree, he seems to really LOVE travelling. Pimms has leg envy, he'd adore legs as long at Bear. Actually, our three year old niece says he doesn't have legs at all, just feet.

I'll try but I'm not real good at photo editing. Microsoft Photo Editor says this photo is 6.82 x 5.12 inches, so here goes . . .

Cathlin Barry

Well, that worked. Now if I could figure out how to remove the photos I put on already and replace them with bigger ones, I would!

It's nice to see a corgi with a tail! Sometimes mutts make *the best* dogs -- I can think of several of my favorites, just rescued from the pound -- and y'know what? It was my bro & sis-in-law's dog, Lady, a corgi/retriever, who first inspired Lori (my better half) to research corgis. Lady looked a lot like Bear in shape and coat, but was all red.

Thank you! I'll go over right now and join :)

Your story is truly inspirational!! Thanks so much for the warm welcome. You have a lovely canine family. :-)

The photo of bear in the tux is hysterical.

Y'know what you can do with the redeye in shots like that? Use a photoeditor to paste a big black dot over the redeyes. Then paste a tiny white spot on each pupil in the same relative place, so it looks like a reflection. Once you get the hang of it, it's really quick.

Do you let that guy drive? Corgis can do just about anything.

Matt & Hilliary

Haha, Hilliary loves DMB, I can't stand them, but we get by. We'll definitely be putting up tons of puppy pictures when we get him. Corgi puppies are one of those things that just make me melt, they're so adorable.

hey there!!! im loving all of the photos of Bear on the dash of the truck. he is so precious!! he looks like a fluffy black bear!! ;o) Bear actually looks like a darker tubbier Mia with all the crazy hair but with slightly cuter ears. heh~

i think corgi mixes are just some of THE cutest dogs/animals ever! then corgi puppies then corgis asleep in awkward silly positions. ;o) Bear is very lucky to be part of your family!

Ok, I thought my dogs were spoiled. I don't think mine have it that good. Don't get me wrong, peole are all the time telling me that they want to be my babies. I love the ones while riding on the dash. How priceless.
