There's no rhyme or reason, that we can see, why she likes or dislikes a dog; and she dislikes way more than she likes. Fortunately, Rafa/Ricky's temperament is so sweet and he's so easygoing, he doesn't challenge her on anything. If he were an alpha dog or aggressive, this pairing wouldn't have worked.

Check you TV listing on ESPN. It usually is live at night and repeats in the morning. He's amazing.

I switched their food to Chicken soup for a dog lovers soul, which is ranked very high in nutritional value and very reasonably priced. I'm very pleased. Good luck. This is a great site to get help any time you need it. The members are very kind and generous in their support.

I don't navigate this site that well but it's a great one and one of my favorite places to go when I get on my computer. I love to look at all the corgis. Check out the group "Corgis Remembered." It's a good place to post photos of your beloved corgis that are no longer with you and tell stories about them. Welcome to the site. I hope you enjoy it like I do.
