Hometown:: Hibbing, MN
About Me:: I live in the country and love animals so I have a variety of dogs(2 of my own corgis, Wynn and daughter Sage)2 rescues,a corgi mix and an Aussie) cats and free range chickens. I am lucky because I get to work close to my home and my dog(s) get to come with me...My husband and I have grown children and several beautiful grandchildren who love to visit and play with the animals.My love for Corgis started when I went to pick a female Corgi and Wynn picked me... he proceeded to walk up to me, lay his tiny little head on my foot and fall asleep.Wynn still parades around my house with one of my shoes and I always have to "look" for my shoe before I can leave...I did a Corgi rescue April (08) I felt like I wanted to help other Corgis...wow what an experience and I learned a lot. I also do corgi rescue when needed..Jackson now lives with Jennifer Markley. Calvin my Cardigan rescue lives with Joanna and Rainy my own Pembroke was rehomed and lives with Joanna's parents where she can be the "princess" and have her own people!
Welsh Corgi Breeder?: No
Website:: http://none
About My Corgi(s):: I have 4 Corgis.Wynn is my male Corgi that started this obsession with Corgis and he is now 9. Wynn's daughter Sage is 3 and a Therapy Inc.dog that often travels with me.Wiley my rescue is also about 8. Teddy my other rescue is about 11. Armani is my Aussie who thinks and acts like a corgi! Tank is a 4 year old Corgi mix. We decided to adopt him instead of another Corgi because he had already been in 3 homes at 1 year of age. He can run for hours in our groves and wear off his energy and is such a sweet boy. 1/2.
I have:: Pembroke

Welcome! We have three corgis. Two rescue and one baby we purchased. One day I would love to be in the country with a whole field of them. LOL!!! I am envious!

Why thank you! Although I have to say, whatever she becomes will fulfill my wishes, since she has already - in just a few days! - been an amazing part of my life.

Your own Corgi pack is adorable and looks so well-taken care of. I'm impressed to see such a dedicated Corgi mama, and motivated to do even better with my own pup. :)

Hi Jane,

You have a great Corgi family. The babies a sooooo cute. How often do you have litters? I was born in Redwood Falls and grew up in Lamberton. My parents operated photography studios in Lamberton and Springfield. I've lived in the Winona / La Crescent , MN. area for the last 40 years

Hi Jane. I was going to send a private message but couldn't figure out how! I want you to know I am sorry for my role in the food thread getting out of hand. I respect your opinions and your knowledge, and agree with many of the things you say. So, very sorry!

Hi Jane,
Thank you so much for the information on Lick Guard. If he continues to lick today I am going to find some.
I have another question for you. Since you are a breeder, what are the various types of Corgis and what are their traits? I am familiar with just one and would like to know about the others.

Aug 8, 2009
Deb , Gretzky, and Norman

Cardigans have tails, right?

Are there special names for the sable colored ones and the multi and black ones?

Are there different personality traits between a Caridgan and a Pembroke?

Hi Jane, we are also in Mn. Edward and Gemima had to comment on your lovely pictures!!! I have to be careful or I too will end up with a 5 Corgi family!!! I just love my two sooooo much!!! How far away is Comfrey from Rochester????

Aug 8, 2009
Edward and Gemima

yep, I found Deb too!!! I know exactly where Owatonna is. Did you have bad weather over your direction this Summer?? Our lake is not up North, surprisingly it is Lake Zumbro, it has been very clean this year with our cooler weather and the dogs have a blast out there! Are you going to submit a photo for the 2010 calender??? you should!!!

Edward and Gemima

Jane, I would have a tough time picking just one that I like!! Good Luck with that!! My favorites so far are the one with, is it Wynn yawning??? and the one with the 5 of them all lined up so cute!!!

Aug 8, 2009
Edward and Gemima

I bet you have lots of fun with all the room for the Corgis to run and play!! I recently saw an ad in our paper for a pygmy goat and wanted to get her so bad, but my husband just shakes his head at me!! No room for that, so you are lucky as well!!! By the way how do you get your captions on your pictures?? Is it a program you have??

Aug 8, 2009
Edward and Gemima

OK, thanks I'll try it out and see if I have any luck!! That's so funny about your goats, what are their names???? Joey and.....

Thanks for the nice comment on the thread!

We just came back from looking at an adult. We may be trying her in our home, so I'll be the one needing advice pretty soon!

Haha, thank you! His "cousin" the German Shepherd was obsessed with him! I don't think he has ever seen anything that small!

Also, thank you for your input on our puppy situations. We figured it was probably normal, but what better place to ask? :)

The Story of Dooley-- Oh, my goodness! I don't mean to make you all cry! I certainly hope they're tears of happines. I want you all to be happy for Dooley! His saga is continuing every day, as He's the Hero! His story is such a wonderful one that I just can't help writing about him in a way that will cause everyone who has read the blogs to fall in love with him as well.

Thanks for your comments on Poppit. It is amazing how adaptable animals can be with respect to their handicaps. Poppits success is her own. I'm just here to see her blossom. Sounds like your home is as full as mine...even though our Children are grown. It will be a while before I have grandchlidren though!

Thanks for the congrats! I really thought it would be harder than it was. With the right food portions, Hills Rx food, and plenty of exercise, the pounds just shed off. I wish it was that easy for humans- ha ha.

Thank you for the comment. Your fur-children are cute!! Corgis are such a joy in my life and I would not own another breed!!!

It really is a shame that I live so far. But I'm crazy enough to drive to Minnesota! LOL It's just so hard to find what my heart is set on here in the NYC metro area. Looks like I'll have to sacrfice something but one thing I know for certain is that I want my pup to have a tail.

Aug 26, 2009

Sounds like a good plan so keep me in mind lol! Road trips are always exhausting but cool :o)

Hi Jane,

Sorry it's taken me so long to thank you for all the information you gave me on Corgis.
We were camping this week-end in De Soto, Wisconsin and met a little Corgi names Rosie that came from your place! She was sweet as can be. Rosie and her new family live not far from here in Wisconsin. Gretzky greeted her but was more interested in continuing his walk. I just couldn't wait to get home to tell you we met her. I have added a few photos on my page.

Aug 30, 2009
Deb , Gretzky, and Norman

Yes, that's Rosie with Gretzky in two of the photos and one of her alone. She was very friendly.

Hi Jane.
According to the foster mom, Jeter came from Nebraska. But they don't know more or his days before being Nebraska.

Good morning, Jane! I think your petition is a wonderful way to put the pressure on whoever is overseeing the situation of the puppy mill. However, because I work for elected officials in my state, part of my Code of Ethics and Responsibility in my job does not allow me to publicly sign petitions that may reflect support for laws and/or viewpoints that differ from the laws in my state that my judges are sworn to uphold. It's a very fine line I have to walk. I truly wish I could help out. Have you contacted your local SPCA / HSUS Shelters to invite their participation?

"...nothing like the woods up north>"
That is true. The mountain and beach terrain out here has its spectacularity, but the subtle beauty of the midwestern deciduous forest is lacking. The bird life, for instance, does not hold a candle. And the Puget Sound Basin is tragically overcrowded (I've listed my address as 'Los Angeles del Norte' for years, and everybody knows what it means).
Like Garrison Keillor says, I'm waiting for my return visa to Minnesota...

My Son-in-Law is a hockey fan and played hockey himself so, yes, Gretzky is named after the famous player. He is the one that picked Gretzky from the litter in 2002. By the way, I enjoyed your photos from the Renaissance Festival. Also, if you're ever near La Crescent again please let me know. I'd love to meet you and any of your dogs.

Thank You! Corgis are the most photogenic animals! Yours are beautiful!

I see you have an Aussie with your Corgis too! I think they are a great combination together. I have one of each. As much as I love my Corgi, I have to admit, Aussies are my favorite (Corgis are definitely #2 though). I would like to one day get a show-quality Aussie and show in conformation and hopefully breed.
