About Me:
With our youngest a senior in college, my husband and I now have 2 corgis! They keep us very busy, and I still haven't figured out how the household now revolves around 2 dogs!! We are very active in dog training, and have learned a lot in the 1 1/2 yrs since Abby joined the family.
Welsh Corgi Breeder?
No
About My Corgi(s):
Abby is now about 1 1/2 yrs, and weighs 24 lbs. She has earned her CGC, and also APDT Rally Titles in Puppy Level and Level 1. She is very active, loves to chase the ball and run, and is very bossy. PJ is 5 mos, and weighs 17 lbs. He is slower and more thoughtful about things, and is a laid-back go with the flow little guy. He is learning Rally, but is still too young to trial (soon!) and will be starting a CGC class soon.
I have:
Pembroke

    Welcome Connie and Abby!

    Another beautiful "Abby"!
  • Ann and Izzy

    Hi,thanks for the welcome! Izzy loves to ride in the car but she has just learned to settle down for the ride. She is 9 months old. I wasn't too concerned about the barking until the neighbor and animal control got involved! I signed her up for puppy daycare one day a week. Maybe she'll use up some of that extra energy!

    That's cool about getting Abby a brother. Mine were thrilled when I added to our family. . . .

    Thank you for asking about Sidney. He's doing really well. Most of the time you wouldn't know he had surgery. It's only when we push a longer walk and he tires out sooner than before. He sits there grinning at me with a "naw, I ain't movin' " attitude. Or when he takes off after Sally the kittty and his hind end sides out from under him because the joint isn't quite stable. I know the dysplasia in the other hip and the arthritis in both joints is a constant source of pain, but he's a tough little guy and very rarely shows it. I'm told that the surgery relieved a great deal of the pain, so it was worth it.
    We made Sidney a little enclosure too. It had his crate, another dog bed and his food plate and water dish. It worked well, and we took it down a few weeks ago.
    We've used the pro-collar twice for Sidney and he was not able to reach his incisions either time (the other time was for when he was neutered). Then again, I don't know how hard he actually TRIED to reach it.

    I hope Abby's feeling great today!

    Welcome, to the Tri-Corgi Group. Abby is very pretty...love that red head. Callie has her Beginner Novice Obedience title, but I think she would like Rally better. We also have been trying Dog Agility classes, which were really fun!! Good Luck...
