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.***
Thanks for your sweet comment,,these corgis are so much fun :o) Cooper is my first and i love him so much,,were going camping again this weekend for 2 days so look for more pic of the amazing cliff diver lol :o) ~tina~ and Cooper
We're glad that she's starting to get more comfortable with everyone. Hopefully one of these days she'll be frapping in the pool with Stanley! We can't wait for next month's meetup ^_^
I would love to come to Stanley's Birthday party!! I just have to make sure she is up to date on all the shots that you have mentioned, I'll be looking into her records later tonight...It looks like it would be fun!
Happy Birthday Stanley! I had so much fun at the party ^_^ I was so excited I think I forgot to put my name on your gift (it's the blue bag with the purple paper). I hope you have as much fun making a mess with your gift as I do- I drive mom and dad nuts!
We had the best time at the birthday party thanks for having us! You are very welcome for the Birthday Cake, you will have to let us know how Stanley like it. See you at the park!
Well it looks like a good time was had by all at Stanley's Birthday Party. I wish Whisper was that amicable towards other dogs (the price I pay for having an Alpha female).
Yes! I saw that he is almost 1 year from your Stanley!:)
I am counting down the days, 40 more to go lol.
Celeste said I can go to the Corgi Picnic even though he will only be 9 weeks. Just gotta keep him on my blanket.
Thanks guys. Chloe is the worst car rider, ever, so it made it 100 times more frustrating. Seth had to work, so it was just me and her. She likes to try and jump into the driver seat with me. So, it made it really difficult to concentrate to see where I was going. We need to look into those seatbelt harnesses. And next time, dad's gotta come with and hold her.
Jet had such a great time this weekend. Running around all day certainly tired him out and it was nice to have dogs around that were closer to his size. He is used to playing with large dogs since most of our friends have larger dogs.
We can't wait for the next meet-up and the picnic!
A little sister WOULD be adorable. I can't wait until December: I'm getting a borhter or sister for Scarlet!! I love tris, but I'm not sure which puppy will steal my heart <3
Hi, no, we are not out sight seeing. But thanks for asking. I had a little accident and had to have knee surgery on the 21st of last month and have just been being a big baby. At least that is what Tammey says. Any way, I am starting to get out and about alittle now and should be back on the road in a week or two. Bear and I went out this morning and tried to do a Where's Bear shoot. I was not very happy with the shots but I may be able to clean one or two of them up enough to make them work. I am going to try. Oddly enough, I can't set for very long. My leg goes numb after just a short time and my knee starts to throb and I have to get up and move around. Any way thanks again for asking and watch for the next "Where's Bear" probably post it tonight. Give Stanley a good ol pat on the head for us. By
We got to the snow day early and left when they told us since we did not belong to the facility we had to put Dixie on a leash. Dixie had a great time and I am now thinking about planning a snow vacation. However I was very disapointed since we had no idea until we got there she would have to be on leash, very disapointing! Don't think I will be back there, we did not feel very welcome.
Looks like Stanley had a good time both in the snow and the water, I think he is part duck! Have a great week!
Stanley is adorable! My little Emma was a Banana for Halloween this year! I saw it at target and saw there was a little corgi on it and about had a fit! :) Love the water photos. Can't wait til Emma likes water!
The have a new tag system at PetSmart, I love them. Its called tag works. It lets you write on both sides. It is a little nosier though. But thankfully Odin doesn't have his rabies tag yet so I am not sure if it will be too annoying. LOL I may have to buy one of those things where is makes it quiet
Hi! My name's Ashley... I'm new to the website and I just recently bought my first corgi! She's 12 weeks old, I was wondering if there was a Florida group that got together for get togethers..? I'm not sure where to look for all of this! If you could help that would be great, thanks!
Hey Jenny, Robin & Stanley - first stanley's pic as corgi of the day is great! second the meet up pics are great as well! It was a very fun event thanks for all you do getting us together!
Thank you for the welcome! We're actually hoping to head over to the East Orlando Corgi meetup later this month. I think it'll do both the dogs and us some good to get out and meet up with other Corgis and Corgi people. Plus, I think Ein might need a break from our mini-Schnauzer. :)
