Hometown:: Chicagoland

About Me:: I am "Mom" to two beautiful corgis. With my husband's blessing...I'd have more.

Welsh Corgi Breeder?: No

About My Corgi(s):: Walter & Edith are best friends. They wrestle and play together. They go for walks and rides together. They even share their toys! Both of these wonderful dogs came from shelters in the past year. So many great dogs end up in shelters...I am a huge advocate of rescue!

Walter rescued me only a week after my sweet Maggie crossed the rainbow bridge. He is about 4 years old, gentle and laid back. Walter came to us, skinny, wormy, hair falling out, and full of fleas. He became very ill only a week after he found us...but by then we already loved him. He was a real diamond in the rough. Today he is in great health, a happy, handsome, funny, guy.

Edie has only been with us about 3 months. Our vet estimates her to be around 8 months old. She came from a local rescue where no one had inquired after her in the two weeks she'd been there. She is a petite beauty and was obviously well cared for. Edie is fiesty but has a very sweet temperment. She is fast and smart. I'd love to see her try some agility training!

I have:: Pembroke

Update: July 2009

Walter crossed the rainbow bridge this afternoon. I sat with him until he was safely on the other side. You will be missed my dear friend. August 13, 2009

Our beloved Walter is very ill and we are very sad. We are keeping him comfortable, giving lots of belly rubs and spoiling him as best we can. He has been such a delightful friend...

Poor Edith seems confused about why her friend doesn't want to play. She has grown quieter around him. I think she senses that he isn't well.

I'm so sorry I diseapered from MyCorgi for so long, I was just busy with too many things, but I missed you: MyCorgi is a fun place !

In Japan, taking a dog everywhere is very difficult in fact, but more and more people have dogs, so, now, some "home centers" (I don't know if this is "real correct English" or "japanesed English" ! lol It's a big supermarket where you can find all for the house and the garden, pet stuffs etc) allow dogs inside because no food for sale.

Have a good day or night, not sure of your hour !

I think that what Radar went through was sad and now he's starting to come out of his shyness. He's running around the house right now when we say...Whooo Hooo. Very cute and funny. I want him to feel loved and accepted.

At 2:05pm on September 11, 2008, Ne said…: Your one Corgi looks similar to my Merlyn! Love your pictures.

Welcome. We have slightly similar stories. But I got my female first, and then I had to get one more. My male is about 4 years old, but came to me in the same condition as your male.

Molly and Tigger send their hellos to Edith and Walter!
