About My Corgi(s):
Shippo is an 11-year-old "fluffy" male Pembroke Welsh Corgi, who is also my first Canine Good Citizen! Despite what many people may think, Shippo is absolutely purebred. He just has a genetic coat mutation which makes his fur longer than the average corgi.

Koga is also a fluffy Pembroke, like Shippo, but has a glorious fluffy tail! He's 11 1/2 months old.

Both dogs enjoy Barn Hunt - Shippo has sevral titles now and has made it to Senior class. Koga is just starting out, but has his first trial soon. =)
I have:
Pembroke

    Cheetah,

    Thanks for the response on your grooming of Shippo.  Randy has been a hyperactive dog in part due to accidental inbreeding.  His Dad went in search of a bitch in season and it turned out to be a non-litter mate sister.  Some genes that normally wouldn't have had a chance to get together produced a 5 pup litter.  Randy is hyperactive and has a severe heat intolerance so I have to clip him in the summer or he burns up.  He has never liked grooming but that along with the hyperactivity have improved with age as he is 4 now.  But he is still not fond of being brushed.  Because of back issues and a pinched nerve on the left side of my neck this past year I had to have him groomed at PetSmart but I did give him his last bath and maybe I can do another one before long.  I will look into the Espree Aloe Hydrating Mist as it looks interesting and maybe search for another conditioner.  I sorta brushed him this morning but he does not "put up" with it very well.  Thanks again, Lois

    Oh Cheetah, my hyperactive boy doesn't like spraying either.  I may think about something that I could rub on since that would imitate petting.
