    No kidding, you've got one of Carrie Hale's dogs? They are great animals, and we've gone back to Carrie's just to squeeze puppy fur.
    Let's see... I ran into somebody on the West Fork Foss R trail who recognized Al as resembling their dog named... Gadabout? Runabout? something like that, and it was one of Carrie's. No! Maybe it was Tagalong, the friend you just lost!? I think I remember him saying something about the dog getting on in years and arthritic or something. Yes, I'm almost positive.
    That was the trip when I got the photo of Al on Iron Cap Mtn., Mr. December in the 2009 MyCorgi.com calendar.
    Have a great life with your new friend! Say hi to Carrie for us next time you talk. Maybe we'll see you on the trail soon.
    Carrie's dogs have radiant personalities:

    BTW, who bred the mom? Al's sire was Carrie's Carey Grant, and the dam was owned by ...drawing a blank, I have her name on my puter at home... but I think she may have been on Vashon or in that area... Carrie took that litter over when there was some family emergency.

    Al's mom is owned by Cheri Helsdon; Gwynnie's mom is Joyce Gilpin's (now in Monroe).
    Yes, Al & Gwynn are musical; Al yodels and they composed a song:
    Little Dog Blues
    This contain a link to the Jimmy Rogers original; why don't you record it and post it here after you teach your little guy to yodel /howl on cue? It also has a YouTube cut of Lightning Hopkins' "Lonesome Dog Blues" (I just got that record at a garage sale).
