Thank you Nicole,

It is always hard to lose a loved one, Emmy had a personality that will never be matched, she was a one of a kind. We are looking forward to getting another Corgi in the Spring when the snow is gone and the lake has thawed out. Fortunately we have a Golden Retriever also that keeps us company also. She will also enjoy the Corgi puppy when she arrives.

It is a small world, I have been amazed at the people that I meet that originally came from NH but moved away.

Oh how cute! I wish our kids were still that small that we could wash them in the kitchen sink. Just absolutely adorable. :-)

Hi Nicole from texas- Her full name is kiyohime valentine, which comes from one of my favorite stories in japanese mythology (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiyohime) it's pronounced "key-yo-hee-may" but often I call her kiki, muffin, puplet, corgis always have like a million nicknames.. as far as the Furminator goes; Yes!, it's reduced build up everywhere. Kiki sleeps on bed next to me most nights and as long as I've brushed her recently she only sheds if I rough her up a lot first thing in the morning :) My vaccum picks up about 50% as much now!

That's so awesome. I'm sure you and your fiance will find there's less fur everywhere, overall. I'm getting into a better habit of doing it with kiyo, the hardest part is picking the right place to do it- since if you're not careful the hair ends up all the floor and right back onto them when they roll around on the ground. The best plan of attack for me is -brush/crate/vacuum then shower. Seems to work the best, to brush right before the weekly or so vacuuming. It's certainly the best I've ever used though. You're lucky you guys are in such a warmer climate year round, Kiyo doesn't like the cold snap we've been experiencing the last couple weeks in southern CA.

He's so cute! How much was he might I ask? I like him. =D

Awe, health problems are not good. =( I got mine for even cheaper....so far no problems. The breeder wanted 175 for him, but I ended up only having to pay 150. I hope butters doesn't end up with any health problems. Glad your dogs okay though. Gonzo is an awesome name! He looks like butters when he was a puppy!

I'm so sorry for your lost :( Shadow had a great life and is in a better place.

We figured that Max must be lying by the door because of the cool draft also. It seems like he gets hot very easily. He even loves being outside in the -20 temps, guess it's good for us to get a pup that likes that since we live in Alaska.

lol, yeah, San Antonio actually has 2 really nice dog parks. I love it! I think even more than the dogs do sometimes. How far away is San Marcos from San Antonio. I'm not too familiar with Texas since we only moved her a couple years ago. My husbands in the Air Force.

Texans! Yes! There are a lot of Texans on this site. I love your corgi. His marking a really cute, especially where the top of his face is just a little bit darker than the other parts.

Thanks, I love her sooo much! On the back of her head, just above her collar, there's like a white hook (kind of). She has brown armpits, too.
