About Me:
We live in central Maine.  Have two sweet Cardigans and one cat.  Howard gets along fine with kitty, but Molly has always had jealousy issues....  Howard and Molly are best friends.  Very different personalities.  We brought Molly home from the breeder when she was 9 weeks old after visiting the pups every weekend from the time they were born.  The breeder thought that Howard (born 6 months after Molly) would be a show dog, but decided he wasn't quite perfect enough (lucky for us!).  We adopted him when he was 8 months old, and the rest is history! There are issues: terrible shedding; they can be very stubborn; they think they are being tortured when having their nails trimmed; Howard wants to chase cars; Molly is a yapper (at meal time). However, they are sweet, beautiful, intelligent, funny, loyal, loving, and we couldn't imagine life without them!

    Welcome! You're very lucky to have 2 Cardis. We have a blue and he too wants to chase cars. I don'y know ast what point he decided that was a good idea. :)

    Well they are both beautiful Cardigans.:)
    I'm hoping Finn will grow out of the car issue. He's 6 months old now. He does it when we are walking him. If a car goes by he will lunge at it and his front feet leave he ground. If the leash weren't there to stop him I'm sure he wouldn't be here. He too is surprisingly strong and very stubborn but a great dog. :)

    Your cardigans are beautiful! Marty is a Pembroke. He makes us laugh everyday! He lives with four cats who he loves to herd! They are not so keen on this game! Marty also had the desire to lunge at cars but through training we have been able to stop him. He too hates having his toenails done and can be a bit willful but he is a sweet loyal friend!
