    Hi Kelly,

    What kind of collar does Gibson have? It looks like it has two rings.
  • Sarah C.

    The customer service representative told me they resent it. Please tell me if you got it. :(
  • Sarah C.

    Awesome!

    We ended up buying a Coach collar for Chloe. I thought my wife just wanted to buy an overpriced collar because it's a "coach" We looked at a few on EBAY and then decided to go to the outlet mall to check them out up close. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality they put into their product. We found a really nice one that was 1/2 price and got it for $16. It doesn't look really girly, but kind of classy....just my 2 cents. Later.. Dave, Robin, & Chloe

    Hi Kelly,
    I know that last season you were apprehensive about taking Gibson to dog parks because he was so young. The Batavia Bark Park is re-opening for the season on April 1st. I put up more info here http://mycorgi.com/xn/detail/1150197:Event:363112 if you wanted to see how far of a drive it was from you house. Maybe I'll see you there!
  • Kerby (the human)

    You have to pay at the Batavia Park District building in downtown Batavia. But it's pretty quick and just make sure you bring all of his papers. The park is a fenced in area with a combination lock that you need to know the code to get into it. You can always try calling to see if they will give you a free trial day. I know when they officially opened up last year they had this big freebie event.
  • Kerby (the human)

    Hey. As of today it is supposed to be a beautiful 80 degrees on Friday and I am planning on taking Lucy to the Bark Park for a nice long romp. Would you and Gibson be interested in sharing the fun?
  • Natalie, Lance &Tucker

    Such great pictures! What kind of camera do you use?
  • Cindy & Jeremy & Caden too!

    Thanks so much for taking the survey and please be sure to pass it along. I GREATLY appreciate it! Thanks again! Love that pup video.
  • Kelley

    Gibson has so many wonderful pictures! I can tell he's a little charmer.
  • Zach and Lisa

    We will be coming to continue the match! Hope Gibson is ready, Midas is. It's a shame Midas and Gibson didn't meet until later in the meetup last time. Do you think they will remember each other?! See you soon.
  • Toby {Brenda}

    Hi Kelly was so much fun meeting you and Gibson--Riley is feeling much better now and sleeping- But he had so much fun playing today-- Hey would love a copy of your video you made-- that turned out so nice... I got some pics to so will try and get them up within the next few days..
  • Chris and Andrew

    Kelly, it was so nice meeting the famous Gibson :-) He is such a cute guy. I remember your blog post about his weight but I think you don't need to worry at all. He is a fit, happy corgi. Jeter had a great time. Hope we can have this kind of meeting again in the future !
  • Zach and Lisa

    I absolutely love the pictures and video you took. Amazing, especially since we didn't have our camera! I was so happy to see that Gibson and Midas remembered each other. You are very right to say BFFs. I bet hubby was jealous he couldn't make it after he saw all your pictures. It makes me want to go back. Hopefully that wrestling match won't be Midas's and Gibson's last time.
  • Alicia Keyes

    thanks for the picture comment!!!!
  • Chris and Andrew

    Thank you for the pictures! I found one for you.

  • Toby {Brenda}

    Here is a cute pic for you and Gibson.. Riley says hi...
  • Zach and Lisa

    Hey Kelly, I just checked out that site K A Designs and was wondering if that is something you own or co-own? I must say I am disappointed the "low rider" isn't a Corgi, Haha! Anyways, very funny stuff.
  • Mike and Lisa

    Hi Kelly! It was so great to meet you and Gibson :) Thank you soo much for the awesome pics and video, they're great! Hope to see you guys again!
  • Zach and Lisa

    That's awesome! I love checking out smaller businesses, they seem so much better with unique items and all. Is there a store or just online?
  • Lil' Guinness

    I can't believe how grown up Gibson is! I haven't talked to you in a while! I remember the group you made called something like Corgis Born in 2008. He was so cute and tiny! Now he is so cute and big! My icon thing in the corner of my page is from last year for Halloween. Guinness was a pumpkin! Comment anytime on my page! I will show you a picture of Guinness in his costume!

    do your friends make fun of you for the amount of corgi pictures you take? Mine do -.- all the time. "flickr page? more like Pookr page!"
  • Cooper, Nora, Grady, Izzy & Jax

    I love your pictures! What kind of camera do you use?
  • Cooper, Nora, Grady, Izzy & Jax

    p.s.- I didn't know that you were only like an hour and a half from me! Would you be interested in a playdate sometime?!?!
  • Cooper, Nora, Grady, Izzy & Jax

    not off the top of my head....are there any places nearest you?
  • Cooper, Nora, Grady, Izzy & Jax

    well that sucks! Ugh, I've never had a corgi playdate, and there are hardly any corgi owners around here!
  • Zach and Lisa

    Thank you so much for the heads up! Luckily that is a no kill shelter. But Zach and I talked and we will be fostering him if he is dog friendly and without major medical problems. We are calling tomorrow about him. Thanks again!
  • Zach and Lisa

    We called today and he has found a home already. Yay!
  • Aj

    Hey Kelly, how did you link your blogspot blog with the mycorgi blog? I'm been trying to figure out to do so, but I'm stumped!
  • Aj

    Yes! It worked! Thanks so much! :D
  • Corgibyassociation

    Thank you:D

    Happy B Day Kelly!
  • Chester

    what's sup gibson?
  • Carleenp

    Looking forward to the corgi meet up!!!!
  • Jill Usher

    Hi, Kelly, thanks for the comment on Jake's photo. Gibson is ADORABLE and Jakey looks a lot like him. Your photos are beautiful!

    Wish Jakey had some other local Corgi friends. :(
  • Jill Usher

    Kelly, can I say you've got a great schedule going and I agree with you completely. It's so important to get your dogs on a schedule. Even a weekend schedule, which our dogs have now learned that as well! :)

    Also, when were you in NYC? We live about 2.5 hours from NYC and love to go into the city for shows or just to walk around. B4 the dogs, we'd go a lot but with them, it's harder to. We found a great, great kennel about 30 mins from our house that took great lengths to be stress-free for dogs. They love it there.

    Anywa, love the picture of Gibby with his NY Yankees cap on. LOL!

    Jake was born June 5th, 2008, so they are about the same age. Jake is recovering now from his ACL surgery on Apr 27th.

    Take care! Jill
