About Me:
I am 54 years old; married 25 years; our children are flying the next; we have three children in college, and one about to get married. I think the empty nest was getting to me... so what did I do???? I got a Corgi when my husband was in spain and surprised him at the airport! Fell so much in love with Bella, then I got another female Corgi, her name is Mia.
Welsh Corgi Breeder?
No
About My Corgi(s):
I have never owned a Corgi before six weeks ago, and now I have two female Corgis. Bella is five months old; Mia is three months old. They are not from the same Breeder. I though having two girls would be fun... and it is... but I worry about their fighting. How long will it last? Will they hurt each other?
I have:
Pembroke

    Welcome Cheryl, Mia and Bella! If you have not already, post your question about the fighting in the Discussions section. You should get lots of good advice there. Good luck!

    Hi again,
    They probably are just playing. IF you are not used to seeing corgis play, you would think they are fighting. They tend to get on their hind legs and wrestle, sumo-style, making all sorts of vicious growly noises. They also like to grab each other around the mouth a lot. If the noises don't get high-pitched or painful, and no blood is drawn, then they are engaging in normal play. It sometimes freaks out non-corgi people at the dog park to see them doing it!

    Yes, that sounds exactly like normal play for corgis! Do they tend to have tails wagging during or after, and those goofy corgi smiles once they are done?

    It will be best if you get your pups spayed as soon as your vet will do it. This will help keep that hormone level down and hopefully they won't start fighting for that reason. My vet does juvenile spays/neuters so my guys got their sugeries at about 3 - 4 months of age instead of the traditional 6 months. The SPCA will usually do juvenile spays, check it out. Good luck with your precious babies. Enjoy the ride!
