"HI Maria...I always pay off the balance in full each month, so there is no rate in that case. So if you just pay off the balance and don't overspend, it's perfect!"

About My Corgi(s):
Sidney is our first purebred corgi and we are thrilled to have him. He was born 7/11/07. We planned to start him in agility training, but there was a long waiting list. So while waiting for an opening, we took classes for therapy dog training. As it turns out, he's a pretty good therapy dog, so we stuck with that and never got around to agility. Now he is training as a Rally dog. We love it! He's one smart little character! Oh, and he's undocked, so his beautiful tail attracts a lot of attention - good attention.

On August 30th, Sidney suddenly came up lame in his hind left leg. The next day we got xrays for him and found out he has severe hip dysplasia. On Sept 7th he had a Femoral Head Ostectomy to relieve the pain. His right hip is not in great shape either but we're hoping that with glucosamine supplements and exercise we can keep it healthy. *Update* You would never know Sid has surgery now. He moves beautifully. The water therapy and supplements have worked wonders.

Bruce is our corgi/elkhound (?) mix. We rescued him from the brink of euthanasia when he was approximately 10-11 years old (he had a day or two left to go). He's about 16 now and his only sign of his advanced age are bad teeth and slow mornings. I adore Brucie and he worships me. He's my funny short angel with a puffball tail (thanks to the elkhound side). He's about 18 now and going strong.

Chester is our "tall dog". He's a black dane/lab mix that we got from a "free to good home" ad in the local newspaper. He's also old, about 15 years old. We know his age because we've had him 14 years, and he was an adult when we brought him home! He's a very serious dog and not very affectionate compared to the corgis, but he has been a very good dog, just aloof. We can't take Chester as many places as the shorties because he does not travel well. He's almost 17 now and has definitely slowed down. *UPDATE* Chester had a sudden decline and was sent to the bridge on April 15th 2013 at the age of 17.

In February 2013 we added Connie to our family. She's a little tri corgi who was picked up as a stray and put up for adoption at our local Humane Society. She's a real sweet girl and loves to play ball. She's learning a lot from Sidney about life here. We can't believe that her family never came to claim her.She's got good manners and she gets along well with the other dogs and the cats, and everyone she meets is her best friend.

Sidney the Therapy Dog visits Cal State San Marcos

Posted on May 3, 2013 at 2:17am 5 Comments

Sidney's therapy dog group had a visit to California State University at San Marcos today as a pre-finals week de-stress event. There were about a dozen pups there today and the college kids loved having us there.

Sidney sat still for petting, at one point flopping over for a belly rub. He…

Saying goodbye to Chester

Posted on April 19, 2013 at 6:49pm 8 Comments

On Monday April 15th we said goodbye to Chester. Chester was our lab/dane mix and he was 17 years old. We had adopted him when he was 2 years old from a family who could no longer care for him.

Chester had been having a harder and harder time getting up and making it outside to potty.

Over the…

Thanks for the Welcome - Corky and Mary

Her name is Cloey and she is six years old.  We are having a great time getting acquainted.  She has lots of energy and loves to be outside.  One funny thing about her is she loves water.  She puts both front feet in her water dish and splashes in it.

Thank you for the warm welcome! I can't wait to have her home with us looking forward to June 8th. She will be my first corgi so if you can give me any suggestions that would be great.

They are not rare but not as common as some breeds. Though there are many breeders with Germany.
