I never had a dog until I was 30. My husband brought home an abandoned spaniel. We named him micky. He was a great dog. We had him 13 years. My heart was broken when he died. 3 years later we got our 2 corgies. They are the light of our lives. I can't wait to get home in the evening to see them.
Welsh Corgi Breeder?
No
About My Corgi(s):
We have 2 pembroke corgies. A brother and sister team. They are great together and keep each other company during the day. They are 4 years old. Winky (my little girl), is so smart its scary. They are spoiled rotten.(and I would'nt have it anyother way). We put in a doggy door so they could come and go as needed. They mostly stay in the house because they like to be near us, but sometimes they bolt out the door to bark at the birds. They are truly my babies!
I just did a local search on the akc website and found someone close to me. Both the trainer and I work with him. I see them as like guides lol. They show me what to do then I do it. I also did a google search I just put in agility classes around (put in city sate here) and then I found one. You could also try your local dog stores they might know who has one as well. The one thing I was told was make sure you like the trainer. They said see if they will let you watch a class before you sign up. This way you can see if they have training methods that you agree. I will keep posting pic of him. I am waiting for his grad pics from doggie kindergarden. I will post those they are so cute. Lol.
I am sure they will do awesome. He just amazes me and the trainer each week. I just got the pics from my trainer so I will post them shorty as so as I get them downloaded. I have a video of it I get next week so I hope to be able to part of that up as well. I am sure you will find it just as fun as you corgis do. I think it has really made our bond stronger as well we are a so much mre of a team now. He was always able to read my body langue before but now it is like he reads my mind some times. I hope it is just as fun for you as it is for us.
Hi Teresa! I see that you commented on my corgis w/ Santa pic. That pic was taken at Petsmart and the proceeds went to support homeless pets. I had to drag my husband with me, but it is one of his favorite pictures.
I see you have litter mates (cute dogs!) Kirby & Kota are litter mates. We got Kirby first and I felt bad for him because he wanted to play with my other 2 dogs, and they wanted nothing to do with him. My husband knew how I felt, so 2 months after we got Kirby, he surprised me w/ Kota. They are so cute together.
So Teresa, could you find the ear? On the thumbnail photo, I couldn't find it, and I took the photo. Thanks for having a peek. Hope to post some better shots soon.
Thank you! You have beautiful Corgis as well! Our dogs live in similar environments, out in the wild west! I actually got Cooper from a breeder in Porter TX, her name is Nancy Kretschmer. Cooper and I are going to Indiana on Tuesday and I am going to take a lot of pics, because my childhood Corgi Hercules lives there and we are going to have a big Corgi outing! =)
Thanks Teresa! I was devastated. Jasper's death was so sudden and unexpected. I am so, so lucky that I found Ariel after he left me. She's quite a little character!
Also, I love all your pictures! Your corgi duo is adorable. Winky and Blinky are such cute names too!
Haha, yep.. my Bentley has many more facial expressions which I have yet to capture on camera. Stay tuned.. pretty sure one day I'll be able to snap the more infamous ones.
Ohh, and yes.. Corgis grow up too fast. I wish he had stayed a small puppy longer -- I only remember a couple weeks where he was small enough to hold in one hand.
Hi Teresa! Thanks for your nice comments on Oliver's photos! We do adore our little Bumble! He will be 9 months old tomorrow! I love your two adorable corgis too, Winky, and Blinky! I love the white markings going down the back on one of the dogs. Thanks for friending me! I certainly will be sure to post more pics of both our little boys! (Jeter the tiger cat, Oliver's mauling buddy!)
Thanks for the comment and likes on my puppy dog's pics :) As for keeping her still in the cupcake picture... it was very tough! That's why we only managed to get one of her standing next to them without taking a lick ;) hehe
Hi! Thanks so much for your positive input. I do love Lulu's little Corgi face! That's one thing I enjoy a lot about having her around... She's got a fun personality, and she's cute both coming and going! Ha.
Hi, Yes, they are fun little furballs! :) I was trying to find a bumper sticker to put on my car today, and Cafepress.com had some really hilarious ones. I particularly loved the whole "that's not dirt, that's just nose art" concept! Ha.
Gave Lu a bath today, and ground her nails after. She did really well; I haven't given her a bath myself for some time, (usually go to the groomer). I'm trying to save a few $$ and so did I myself today. Her nails are soo hard, I had to break-down and get a professional grinder to get them down to size. Tried using clippers and PediPaws before, but neither worked very well.
She's still getting used to the noise from the grinder, but she's getting better every time I use it. Same thing with brushing her teeth (groan). I finally broke-down and started brushing her teeth just recently. I had been trying to use tartar liquid in her water, with abraisive food/treats, which has worked pretty well (75%), but her back teeth are still really grungy/brown/irritated gums. So, I've been brushing her back teeth for two weeks now, and she's getting better about it. Can't believe I'm doing it, though! It sounds just so darn "high maintenance"! Oh well, kids... :)
Hi, Well, I have my moments... :) Thankfully, Lu is fairly low maintenance most of the time. I just have to get myself in gear and be consistent with her care. Thanks for the compliment, I'm glad to know I'm doing o.k. with her...
thanks for all the likes it was fun putting up her pics for other people to enjoy shes not very photogenic, usually hides or turns just as you take pic......my daughter showed me how to post them, I'm a bit computer challenged still learning the in's and out's....the pic of the three of them they were laying on top of me you can see my face in the corner, I told my son to grab camera and take pics, they turned out so cute....its such a small world I have a best friend her name is.......Terry Gilpin........we've been friends since our kids were in kindergarten together (23 yrs) your babys look like they could be Bays family so CUTE......jeanne
Thanks for voting for Napolean! Supposedly there is an email sent out to confirm each vote...I've found the confirmation email most likely ends up in your spam box (I don't know why), so in order to confirm your vote you have to find the email, otherwise it does not count. Thanks again!! I hope you guys are doing fine :)
Hi Teresa, I'm using my page for my keep my record so i can looking it when he was adult. Watching him growth has been a awesome experience for me.Thank you for always leaving a kind words to Louie's picture.It's awesome that Dog can bring two stranger become friends.
HI teresa, i didn't notice that you gave me info about dog show in atlanta. Yes i'm in Georgia. I don't know if there is a big dog event in here because i recently moved to US. Do you know where i can find the complete info? Sound interesting. Thank you for letting me know.
Yes, Ranger LOVES herding the sheep. He also loves chasing the sheep and occasionally grabbing wool from the sheep. He also loves cattle, horses, and any other animals that move, and move quickly. He doesn't, luckily herd children or us.
Ranger is super wonderful. I know, this is shameless self promotion, but he does have a blog: www.rangerthecorgi.com Please feel free to visit him there too.
Thanks, Teresa! Love your little corgis too! They are the best little dogs to come home to, aren't they? Still waiting on a name and the puppy...will keep you posted.
Thanks Teresa! As far as I am concerned, our home will never be a home wihtout a few Corgi's in it too :) And I already know that pretty soon I will be buying a dog bed for my son's room. AS Ruby is always sneaking up there to play with him and check out his toys. He also loves storytime at night with him.
The corgi butt magnet came form a place called "The Sign Barn" http://www.signbarn.com/online-catalog.htm. It can be ordered online, and is only $12, no idea what shipping would be. All I know is I love it!
Thanks, Teresa! Blue sure is a happy fella! We're going to alter his world a little bit in the next few weeks, when we bring home a new sister (female corgi puppy). I'm sure that he'll be annoyed for a few weeks, but once he gets used to the new little one, they'll be a good team... Just like Winky and Blinky!
Thanks for your support Teresa. And Im so sorry for your previous Corgi. Hey his name also the same with mine :). Very lovely corgi of yours now. Is she Winky in this pic? Send our warm hug to Winky and her bro. Love from Mickey and Family
Just wanted to thank you for all the love you show Fae's photos! Also wanted to comment back on what you said about her ears in the 'you called' photo. I always laugh at how easily her ears flop about while running. It makes for some interesting photos!
I promise not to tell her, her head is already big enough! I know I have been pretty bad about posting photos on here for a while. Fae does have a tumblr account that gets a minimum of 2 photos posted daily, the url is on my page if you are interested in seeing it! :)
Thanks Teresa. Everyone is so nice around here. I am happy to have found the site. Your corgis are so cute too. I read your profile and I don't know what I will do when Blaze's time is up here..He is my heart. This situation about did me in. We are still waiting on the pathology. We sent it to the pathology at Univ of Wis. I guess the pathology guy only does eye balls..I think they said he gets 3000 a year, that's a lot of eyes to study. Hopefully soon. I'll post when we find out. Thanks for thinking of us. =)
I am still finding it hard to believe that Fae is 1 already too. The past year has been so much fun with her that is has gone by in a flash! I had a lot of fun doing goofy things for her birthday, and she put up with it quite well! Yesterday she went to daycare, and they had a birthday party for her there too! I am hoping to get a hold of some of the photos they took so I can post them! Have a great day!
