FuzzyButt

Female

Tampa, Florida

United States

Profile Information:

Hometown:: Tampa
About Me:: My name is Jen, I live on the west coast of Florida with my mom. Ryan, my boyfriend, lives up in Snohomish, WA with his family. I go to visit him on the holidays, and some time in the middle of the year. We have cats and a corgi here in Florida, while Ryan has a Shepard mix.
I don't get out much because I cannot legally drive, and due to a car accident last year my mobility is hampered. Though you may not be able to tell I suffer from back pains and cannot work. I am however in a wonderful physical therapy program for that. I also have a big problem with depression and even with treatment it seems that the slightest thing can set me off.
Some people may be wondering why I would get a corgi if I am so disabled, but I believe that corgis are special. They are unlike any other dog, in my eyes. I am Scotch/Irish, and I believe greatly in the tales of old, and in the healing powers of animals.
Welsh Corgi Breeder?: No

About My Corgi(s):: The little one is a PWC, named Banzai Fuzzybutt. I got my new pup from Celestial Star Kennel. Banzai was born on the 25th of May 2008, and appears to be a well behaved little boy. Or so it appears. He has his moments but I think that he is at THAT age.
I have:: Pembroke

I love your taste in music!

congrats on the new puppy. i hope to be adding a new little fur ball myself.
where are you getting your puppy from?

Jul 20, 2008
Manda and Chloe

i was looking at that site just last night. i really haven't deided yet where i'm gonna get the new puppy from. chloe was a rescue so i've never had to go through all this before, and i just can not believe how expensive these dogs are. but chloe is no where near ready for a new puppy. im sarting her in day care a couple of times a week to try and socialize her a little bit and get her used to other dogs. but even with that im stil a little afraid of how she is gonna react to a new puppy. she is crazy protective of me and even gets onto my boyfriend sometimes.

Manda and Chloe

i've looked at that site a few times over the past couple of weeks. and the idea of another resuce dog is great but i dont want to get an older dog, i want a puppy. chloe was already almost 5 months old when i got her and i missed out on her cute flffy stage, and the puppy breath and potty training, i missed out on the first months of her life and when i do get another dog i dont wanna miss all that stuff again

Jul 20, 2008
Manda and Chloe

i appriciate your help. i'm just still a litte nervous, i just wanna make sure i do this right.

Jul 20, 2008
Manda and Chloe

ok, but what if i just wanna pay for him all up front?

Jul 20, 2008
Manda and Chloe

yeah, i would never get a puppy from a pet store. thats why ive been looking around for a breeder in florida. i'll definetly keep your suggestion in mind but i want to look around a bit more before i make a decision, and it really will just depend on my gut feeling when start making calls and asking questions, and who has what i'm looking for when i am ready.

Are you excited to bring Banzai home in just a few days?! I am excited for you!

Reese

Hahahaha really??? I could tell a little watching all the videos and seeing her in person... she's going to be handful. I hope I can trainer her quick! lol No doubt I will be posting up a storm about what to do with her... so stay tuned. So lucky you get yours on Friday!! I have been tossing my brain around to really tell when it would be best to get her this Friday or next. So tempting to get her this Friday...

I know... I told Celeste I am going to wait till next week. I hope Reese doesn't terrorize the other pups too much... miss alpha!

Reese gave Banzai kisses in the last video... I thought that was so cute!

Hey Jen, since you and a few other members got your pups from Celeste, how about adding your experience in the breeder's thread? you can follow the format in the announcement area. Thanks!

Jul 21, 2008
Sam Tsang

Actually Celeste is quite known in the FL corgi community already, she's been active with the benefit picnic for several years, many rescue folks and FL corgi club already knows her. I gave her the permission to use my video on her site, she has also enlisted my help with the picnic this year in palm bay. Don't worry too much :)

Jul 21, 2008
Reese

We don't need our babies having babies... we can leave that to Celeste. Plus, I think that would be incest... not good! How much is your vet charging you for the pet exam?? Just curious... I made an appointment with a Banfield vet, but cancelled it today for another vet (that has decent reviews) since Celeste said on her contract that they shouldn't be brought to Petsmart until they get all their shots. *Sigh* 10 more days.... =(

Wow, your waiting time is almost over!!! You must be so excited. I can only imagine. Before you get ultra busy, would you please tell me how to use a flea comb. I use Sentinel but it doesn't kill adult fleas; I have found the odd one on my baby and have killed by hand. I think there may be a few more. What is the best "killing" technique and combing technique? Thanks for your help, Joy :)

Jul 23, 2008
Reese

Soooo jealous.. .but so excited for everyone! You'll have to let us know how it is.

Jul 24, 2008

Still checking for pics of your new babe!!! You must be busy!!!

Will you be at the meetup tomorrow? I hope you guys don't let the bad experience last time ruin the rest of them for you. =( We are going to go if it's not raining. Hope to see you guys!

Don't worry about that guy. I think it was a troll.

Sam & Shelby

We've never had problems other than fleas. Praise the lord, I think they're almost gone. School will start up in a week, though. We may have to have Shelby over at my Grandma's house or just crate her all day (with a few potty breaks). :(

Hey there! We have the same breeder. I got my red female, Chloe, from Celeste. She is great! Your corgi looks like a FuzzyButt too...how cute! :)

I like your page. Really cute pictures. I remember when my Merlyn was that little.

Sep 17, 2008
Butter

Hi, haven't heard from you in awhile...so how is motherhood? and hows the little one? Joy

Sep 18, 2008
Butter

Wow, well the attempts weren't successful (thank God) so that means you are meant to be here. Time for me to start praying for you again. Do you think the stress of a baby puppy maybe affected you?

I know that when I first got Butter that even though it was exciting, it was still a stress and it affected me for about 6 weeks or so.

Did you get anywhere with your disability or are things at a standstill?

I wish I knew what to tell you about potty training. I am sure you are doing all the right things but I have heard that Corgis can be stubborn about training. What about talking to Sylvia and Timmy; she knows a lot about training dogs using a positive framework. She is very helpful to me and I am sure may have some good ideas.

Banzai is a beauty, that is for sure.

I haven't been well myself and have been off the site for about 2 weeks. Sometimes we just need a break from the Internet; it can get a bit all-consuming.

I really hope that you are doing better...take care...missed talking to you. Was wondering if you were ok. Joy

Dannielle

LMAO that is exactly what it looks like! I never really thought of it that way! Trust me I am the last one u need to worry about with politeness and languauge! LoL Im amazed how much Zero like water every other dog Ive had has been terrified but I just cant keep him away its gotten to the point where his water bowl cant be left unattended anymore! :o) So how is Banzai doing? He is such a handsome lil devil!

Sep 21, 2008
Butter

Hi, I just looked at your beach pictures. Wow, Banzai is really growing...he is too adorable. Looks like you had a great day; what beautiful pictures. It was sweet seeing all those Corgis on the beach/in the water. Then there was the picture of the pug admist them. Too sweet. We originally went searching for a pug and came home with a Corgi. HOw are you doing today? Joy

Sep 22, 2008
MagnoliaFly

Yeah the weather seems to be getting cooler :) Bernie and Basil mostly run around too but it is fun to watch them run over the equipment too sometimes. You can also tag along to puppy play group at the dog training school I go to sometime if you want, its for puppies 12 months or younger and it is supervised. (The small dogs get the air conditioning to run around in!) Those happen every Saturday from 2:30 - 3:15. I can get a few cards so you get in free a few times, after that its $5 per session.

If I go to Rowlett it'll probably be Saturday mornings before Ringo wakes up to let the doggies wear out some energies. do you want me to e-mail you my number? I can call or text you if I'm thinking about going.

That's good to hear!!!

They just light up your life don't they? They are so much fun to watch. Merlyn still is my baby and he's has always been such a cuddler and smush. I tell my husband that Merlyn is the love of my life. lol My husband laughs.

Sep 23, 2008
Butter

Hi Jen, just wondering how you are doing...still praying for you. Hope the little one is taking to his potty training and that you are finding life easier than it has been. Take care of yourself, miss seeing you on the site but understand if you don't want to be here. Joy
