Originally from South Florida (Miami and Hollywood) but now residing in Winter Springs, FL
About Me:
We (Jenny "mommy" and Robin "daddy") are first time dog owners trying to navigate our ways through the ups and downs of dog ownership. So far, I think we're doing pretty good.
We have taken on the role as the organizers for the Central Florida Corgis meetup group. Send us a message if you want more info!
Our first pup was born on 9/14/08. His name is Stanley and we brought him home in early November '08.
Stanley is part of the growing family on mycorgi.com consisting of pups that came from Celestial Star Kennel. His parents are Brittney and Kobe. Check it out: http://www.celestialstarkennel.com/
Stanley's extremely outgoing, playful and brave. He's not scared of anything except for those evil stairs to our 2nd floor apartment. He loves chewing on his bully stick and occasionally daddy's shoes. His favorite activities include going to obedience classes and sleeping on the tile floor and playing fetch. He passed his Canine Good Citizen this summer.
Stanley takes most after Daddy in that they both share an extreme fear of heights, have sensitive allergies and embarrassing gassiness, and they both leave their toys all over the place.
He gets his cuteness from Mommy.
His favorite hobbies include eating, sleeping, frapping, running through tall grass, digging, chewing everything, and sniffing under cars. He loves playing in the water, though he prefers to bounce through the water instead of swimming.
We added Charlotte (aka "Charlie") to our family in Nov '10. She was born on Sept 5, 2010. She's a black faced tri-color. We got Charlie from the "Corgi Lady" in Lecanto, FL. Her parents were Cher & Tucker http://www.thecorgilady.com/adults.html
So far, Charlie is proving to be the complete opposite of Stanley. She's very laid back and is so easy going. She's also not a big eater and she's been a breeze to potty train.
Stanley and Charlie love to wrestle and run circle around the living room. Charlie likes to use her small size to her advantage. She'll run up behind Stanley for a sneak attack and then quickly hides under the couch where he can't get to her. She's very clever.
***All the geeky references are attributable to Daddy. Mommy has no part in it.***
There's a meetup Here on Saturday, April 26, 2008 at 3:00 PM. You're welcome to come and get to know other corgi owners in Orlando. We meet once a month.
hey! how are you????my name is Alley and I got a puppy from Celeste as well!!!!I got my pup, Piper(aka Superstar) and she was born on 9/14/08! her mom is Molly. Stanley is growing into a handsome boy!!!!!hope to TTYL!
yay! she is a cutie indeed! i couldnt go that day because my birthday was the previous day and i had a terrible hangover! but i hope to see you and stan on friday!
Thanks! Sorry I was such a ditz at Petsmart! :) I felt like a total jerk. I hope to see you guys at the next corgi meet up. Ein was feeling so crappy yesterday from her shots that we couldn't make it. She'll probably be up for the next one though.
Jenny, I was reading your notes on Stanley. They go through phase just like we do. Whisper didn't want to be held or cuddled as a puppy - now we have to have snuggly time every night. Her biggest thing is if she thinks she's not getting enough attention, she comes over and lays by your feet and pats them with her paws. To get her to stop, you just have to scratch her with your foot!
There is another park in Dr. Phillips that I go too as well, Superstar enjoys it very well. And there is another one by Colonial called Barnett park. Superstar's ultimate park is Fleet Peeples, but I hate giving her baths everytime she goes there. Let me know when you want to go.
Thanks! The puppia fits great on Bella and it helps control her when she starts to pull when she gets excited. She has a large but it's tightened to the smallest setting b/c she's a little more petite than we anticipated. My cousin's corgis also have a large and they're a bit larger than Bella. If you decide to purchase one for Stanley, search online b/c they're much cheaper than in the stores. Hope that helps!
Go to the Southeast Florida Group. I think they were going to meet up on Saturday. Bella, and Diddy. I'm putting down sod, so I doubt I will make it out for any fun. :( You can come to my place if you want Stanely to get REALLY muddy. My entire yard is dirt rght now!
I noticed that stanley and crystin have the same dad Kobe.
and a friend of me that came to the april meet up has a corgi, Winston and Brittney and Kobe are his parents.
