Profile Information:

About Me:: We are first time corgi owners hoping that our little boy becomes successful in the future through the proper study of human and dog etiquette with some super fly tricks. We're hoping to learn from the personal experiences of individuals within the community to raise a well mannered, happy, and healthy corgi.
Welsh Corgi Breeder?: No
About My Corgi(s):: Taro is home! He's very outgoing, super adorable, doesn't squirm too much when handled, and was scared to bits during his first bath. He loves to squeeze in every nook and cranny to find the most comfortable spot. He tries out a new spot every few seconds until he finds one to his liking, picky little guy.
I have:: Pembroke

Hi Jade and Jay! I would love to keep in touch with you about my little one's brother. You're naming him Taro? I am picking up my puppy this Saturday and am very excited about it.

Check my friend's list for Courtney - she's got the other sister.

It'll probably be Luna, but Xochitl (flower) and Echo are in consideration as well.

Yay! It'll be a lot of fun to keep in touch! ; )

Xochitl is two syllables - like "soo-cheeel" - and I liked it because of the uniqueness of it, but a lot of people have a hard time saying it.

Enjoy your first night with your little boy!

Courtney and Zoe

Lol. I think you guys were spending some time with him away from the litter. I didn't realize until now that we were looking at the puppies at the same time two weeks ago! I'm glad your little (or very big) boy is doing well. He is even cuter than the last pictures you posted of him (if that's even possible). I cannot wait until tomorrow so I can bring my little girl home! Thanks for the update and I hope that we all can stay in touch and maybe have a sibling reunion somewhere down the road! ; )

LOL. . .No I searched everywhere for the perfect costume for 3 Corgis and could not for the life of me find any so I saw this at CVS Pharmacy and walla I figured that I could just be a Corgi myself!!!. . . .Well almost, I couldn't get the ears to stay up. I had to bribe Cloe with a treat to take the picture because she kept wanting to bite my nose off. . . .LOL

Well how did the first night go? You know we are all waiting to see pictures right? Take lots and lots of pictures because they grow up soooooooooo fast!

Lol it is a lot of fun. Zoe has spent some time playing with her toys since she got home, but has since passed out for some much needed rest. ; )

I love having Luna with me already. We're not quite home yet, we're visiting my mom so she can spend time with my mom's Yorkie Belle and we'll be heading home to San Diego in the morning. My mom adores her and it's convincing her that she needs to get her dog a playmate to see how much fun they're having. I can't stop smiling.

I'm looking for a puppy and am going to Royal Hearts in Hesperia tomorrow. Isn't that the breeder you got your puppy from? Would you recommend her?
Thanks.

Happy 5 months old, Taro!

Krystle (Luna & Twinkie!)

Taro has grown into a handsome little guy! It's funny how similar he and Luna look like each other - I thought she was looking more like Banjo every day too! I hope you are enjoying him as much as I am enjoying Luna.

Courtney and Zoe

Thanks. We're great! Taro is such a handsome boy! He reminds me a lot of Banjo, especially in your profile picture. It's great to hear from you and to see new photos :)

Happy Birthday Taro!!
Can you believe they're a year old already?

Happy birthday to Taro!

Krystle (Luna & Twinkie!)

Yes, I got another! I hadn't been planning on it, but she desperately needed a new home - she was in a bad situation. I felt like I had enough room and love to spare. Luna appears to like having a second dog in the home - and they're getting along remarkably well.

I found Luna and Taro's brother here in San Diego. He is named Theo!

Courtney and Zoe

Thanks! It's nice to hear from you! Time really has flown by this past year! Taro is such a cutie- and big too! Zoe is actually pretty small. She only weighs a little over 20lbs. and is just starting to fill out. She has a big personality though and loves to meet and play with new dogs. :)

By the way, I read on Krystle's page that Taro has had allergies. I think Zoe may have them too. What are Taro's symptoms?

Oct 1, 2011
Courtney and Zoe

Poor Taro! I'm glad he's so responsive to the shampoo! Zoe hasn't had any rashes or hot spots, but she gets these episodes that sound like reverse sneezes. They last for a few seconds up to a minute of her nasally heaving. I noticed them start when she was about 7 months old, but they were so infrequent I figured them to just be reverse sneezes. However, they've since increased in frequency to several times a week. We're going to her vet in a few days to get her checked out.

I haven't noticed any particular aggression issues with females. And my two have gotten along beautifully, though with some small issues of jealousy with Luna when I pay attention to Twinkie. As for when we are at our corgi meetups: Luna is a particular favorite of the males in the group, she usually has 2-3 males following her around and wanting to play. In fact, she has a regular "boyfriend" a few weeks her senior that finds her at every event we have.

I noticed that both you and Zoe's mom, Courtney, have mentioned allergies. I guess I've been lucky with Luna - we haven't had any incidences. I feed her a high protein diet (Merrick) and when she gets baths we use Green Tea shampoo. When I got Twinkie she had been shaved and was sunburned - I used the same Green Tea shampoo on her, it soothed her and she healed nicely - along with her fur growing in nice and soft. I also don't use topical flea treatments on them - I use comfortis instead, a chewable tablet they take once a month.

Here's Theo's dad's tumblr, specifically the post that made me realize he was a sibling of Luna's. I contacted him and had it confirmed.

Yes, we will be attending the Howl-o-Ween meetup event in Poway. Luna will be dressed with a purple jockey and Twinkie with the headless horseman. Hope to see you there.

Krystle (Luna & Twinkie!)

Will definitely look for him. Look for the purple jockey!

It was great getting to meet you two and Taro today! It was awesome seeing a sibling of Luna's all grown up. Here are the pictures I took of the day. Howl-O-Ween Meetup Pictures

I definitely hope that they get another chance to play together, so it would be awesome if you guys come back. The red-winged corgi is named Liberty - she's a little sweetheart. Have a great Halloween!
