"Ellie will only sit by the kitchen door when she needs to potty. It's great when I'm in the kitchen or dining room and can see her. It's not so great when I'm in the living room. If she has to wait for too long,…"

Does your Corgi let you know when they need to go? My Toby is almost a year old and when I first got him at 10 weeks, he was potty trained in 2 weeks. Although I know most people swear by a crate, we…Continue

How much does your Corgi weigh? Mine is pushing 30 at 9 months. He's always been a big boy though. Today I started him on the Healthy Weight Blue Buffalo.Continue

J-Mae & Blackie replied to Karina Leyva's discussion Does your Corgi let you know when they need to go?"Blackie will whine and drag her bum across the floor. She's on a schedule now so she usually just whines when I get home from work to go outside to 'go'. "
Marcie replied to Karina Leyva's discussion Does your Corgi let you know when they need to go?"Becca favors the stare, then will poke me with her nose if I am not paying attention. I also have her on a schedule because of work. She goes out more on the weekends, but I always take her out on her regular potty times as well. Well on the…"
Dana C replied to Karina Leyva's discussion Does your Corgi let you know when they need to go?"We have Milly on a schedule for morning and night. During the day my schedule varies and so do potty breaks but at 5 she is fines for hours. We got her at 18 weeks but the training was a breeze (after the first few days) and she was trained within 2…"
Michelle and Vesper replied to Karina Leyva's discussion Does your Corgi let you know when they need to go?"We trained Vesper to "shake" whenever she wants something, and also have her on a schedule. It helps us know when she's shaking to go out on the deck to bark at neighbors vs. when her water bowl needs filling, it's playtime, or…"

Does your Corgi let you know when they need to go? My Toby is almost a year old and when I first got him at 10 weeks, he was potty trained in 2 weeks. Although I know most people swear by a crate, we never used one and he did just fine. We've even traveled with him and has never had an accident. We've always kept him on a schedule, which is why he doesn't have accidents, but sometimes I'd like him to let me know (whine). I know some Corgi owners have used a bell by the door. How do you think I…See More
Karina Leyva replied to Vicki/Kurt Pegel's discussion Bath Time"I have to get in the tub with him, but other than that he's a trooper and just stands there. I also use a hair catcher which works pretty well and a ZOOM GROOM which works wonders on getting the shampoo to their undercoat since its thick.…"
Karina Leyva replied to LooLoo's discussion Pooping in crate overnight"I agree, at 9 weeks he may still be to young to hold it through the night. We got ours at 10 weeks and we would get up every 3 hours to take him out. If he had an accident we would put him outside on every time so he knew that's where you go.…"
Terry Irene Blain replied to Karina Leyva's discussion Weight?"Bandit is 11 3/4" and our agility instructor wants to keep him at 28lbs. He looks fine at that weight. Because of the 3/4" he has to jump 12" instead of 8" at AKC, so we need to keep his weight down."
Geri & Sidney replied to Karina Leyva's discussion Weight?"Sidney is five years old and 32 pounds. He's at the upper limit of where he should be, trying not to contribute to any weight gain!"
Cindi replied to Karina Leyva's discussion Weight?"We have a Cardigan/Blue Heeler mix and he's a good weight at 35 lbs. With yours being mixed with lab, you'll find she weighs a bit more. But normally a Pembroke with weigh in around 25 lbs. and a Cardigan between 30-35 lbs."
Tomahawk and Fences replied to Karina Leyva's discussion Weight?"Tomahawk is about 27.5 lbs right now at 10 months, but I think he may need to lose a pound or two just to be safe. He hit 29 lbs at 8months so I cut back his TOTW by a third cup and added 10 min to his walks and it has seemed to slim him down."
Jane replied to Karina Leyva's discussion Weight?"Puppies usually grow around a pound per week so I wouldn't say he'll be oversized necessarily."
