About Me:
I'm an art director living in Brooklyn with my Corgi, Dash!
Welsh Corgi Breeder?
No
About My Corgi(s):
Dash is a tri-color Pembroke Welsh Corgi with limitless amounts of energy. Surprisingly, he's very trim for a corgi and has a short sleek coat to match... sometimes I wonder if he's got a little something else in him. He lives to fetch... especially his red squeaky ball! Sprinting back and forth in our hallway is also a favorite activity.

Dash was born 2007.08.20 and came to us from Blazing Stars Stables in Willard, Missouri. He definitely has several brothers and sisters and it'd be cool if we could find out where they are and how they're doing.
I have:

    Welcome Michael. We were just in your exciting city last month! A trim corgi is Good! ... they alll should have a tummy tuck up...keep up the good feeding and exercise routine for him. He is just feeling young, thin and energetic. Funny we said the same thing when we visited NYC "no wonder most NYers were thin; food cost are very high, and they walk a lot"! The smoother hair coat is a plus for indoor home life too ! Kudos

    WOW! Dash and Chloe could be twins! Your description about Dash is exactly how Chloe is and his markings look just like her too....amazing!

    No, not out of Missouri. We got her from a breeder in Susanville Ca.

    Kaycee hated the nose thing at the beginning so we just adjusted and put it on her paw or her back, and eventually moved to her face/nose. It took about 2-3 days but once she felt comfortable, she was fine.

    Man, Dash is cute! I guess I am partial to tris because of Linus. :D

    We actually took him swimming at the beach near my sister's home in Westbrook, CT...about two hours north of the city. As far as where you could take Dash swimming, I am not sure. Old Orchard Beach, perhaps? Another thing you could look into is a lake upstate, maybe do a weekend trip.

    We live in SF now (moved last week) and apparently there is a dog beach out here which we plan on checking out.

    Dash is super cute!!! Good luck with your training. They are a super smart bloodline.

    I know i sent you a comment a while ago about how identical Dash is to my Chloe, but that you got yours from a breeder in Missouri and mine from California, but I just realized they have the same birthday also....August 20, 2007. That is sooooo weird!

    Prospect Park I believe has a pond where they can go swimming.... i believe before 9am or something like that it is off leash. I took Milo there one day in the summer to swim in the area there. Another place was like just south of woodbury north of the gwb on the palisades.

    I'll post some pictures... the water is very clear... technically dogs are not allowed to swim but it is so quite that there is rarely a ranger that comes back that says anything... once they did but i drove there several times just to have him swim and bbq.

    You asked about KC's breeder. All I know is that we got him from Brad Biggers in October 2007, and his Mom was Heidi, one of Brad's dogs. I had been looking at Brad's website, Blazing Stars Stables, off and on, but notice that he's turned it off. I wonder if they've moved? KC is just the sweetest, cutest little corgi. We're very lucky!

    In regards to your comment "We're in Brooklyn, but want to find somewhere to take Dash where he can run out in the wide wide open, swim, go hiking, etc. Anyone have any suggestions that might be accessible without a car? (I know that's a stretch) If it's somewhere within range of the city we could also get a ZipCar for a day trip."

    We also live in Brooklyn and are fortunate to live a few blocks from Fort Greene Park that has off leash hours. I am not sure where in Brooklyn you live, but Prospect Park (FIDO) has a doggie-lake that just opened last weekend and will be open 'till fall. It's also a big park so you can really explore during off leash hours (9pm-9am). If you are looking to get out of the city, I would recommend FDR park in Westchester (Taconic Parkway/Yorktown) or for more secluded space go further North on the Taconic to Fawnstock Park. Hope that helps

    Yes, that's him! Didn't even realize Eva's Play Pups had a YouTube page! Thanks for letting us know. :) Where in Brooklyn are you located? Do you ever go to Prospect Park in the morning and/or weekends? There is also a really great (2 acre) dog run called Hillside Park in DUMBO that we take Taco to. Like Dash, he has limitless energy, but after an hour at that dog run, he is always dead tired!

  • Kona

    Dood I happen to google Brad Biggers cuz i noticed his website is not there anymore and that led to your site. I got Kona from Brad too!! Crazy.. Kona was born in Nov. 21st, 07. Cool stuff..

    You know I always wondered same thing about Kona too.. She too is very trim and has long legs for corgis.. I wondered if shes got something else in her too.. But at any rate.. I think thats what makes her and Dash special, on top of their great looks!

    yeh i know.....my daughter was on with me & we BOTH couldn't believe it..usually there is a little difference with nose spot or white on back of neck, but Dash & her are soooo similar! i wonder ....would have to be from seperate litters i guess....yours is 2 ys old right?
    i just think it's awesome how they are like twins...down to the birthmark on nose.
