No
About My Corgi(s):
Favorite is the dog who inspired me to get into dog training and research behaviors. She is so stinkin smart and she teaches me something new every day. We love trick training and Favorite knows over 60 commands and has helped her deaf dog sister Mari pick up on several of those same commands. She loves food, going to playgroup at the shelter and the dog park, and her favorite trick is to tidy up her toys, she looks the most proud after completing that one.
I have:
Pembroke

There is a wonderful book.. a comic book or graphic novel if you will called Korgi. My Fiance bought it for me about a month or so after i got Favorite. This book is the best book you will ever find. It is illustrated by a wonderful artist named Christian Slade who fell in love with the breed after he met his wife Ann who already had one. He realized that corgis were the best dog ever.. thier character and thier love of mischief made it easy to want to draw them. I get that same itch sometimes… Continue

So when i first got Favorite and brought her home she was a spaz. I was ready for that and now after 14 mos with me she is one of the best behaved dogs i have ever met. I have been told by people that she would be a good therapy dog. I never paid much mind to that because i figured that it would be way to much work for us. with me working 40 hrs a week and planning a wedding and my sister just had a baby etc. Well last night i was reading online about therapy dogs and the steps it takes to get… Continue

A pit bull aussie mix? That sounds very intriguing and cute! How old is she? 10 o clock works well for us. Let's hope there's no rain! I hope that Favorite is doing better soon.

Hi Kim! I'm so sorry that I missed this until just now. I think Tuesday mornings will definitely work for me from now on. Want to plan on the 29th since I just got this?

I'm sorry we couldn't wait around for you to visit on Saturday, I had to get back over to school for a meeting. We would love to have a little puppy reunion. I bet Stella would really like that too since she clearly has built a bond with you :-)  Saturdays and Sundays are definitely the best for us.

Her food behavior has been under control completely. We have not had any issues with that. Nowadays are issue is with her biting. She was just doing the little nipping I mentioned previously at ankles and what not, but now she will bite Heather and myself unprovoked, usually hands or legs, and does not respond to our negative commands. I emailed Annie to ask for some advice since it has been getting worse, but if you have any we'd definitely appreciate it!

Hi Kim! Stella has definitely grown quite a bit now since we adopted her. I can't believe it's almost been 2 months now. We are definitely very happy to have her as a part of our family. :-)

Noodles has never been to minto-brown, but I think it would be fun to meet up some time. I'm off on Saturday's and Sunday's. I commented on your discussion about having a Salem corgi meet-up. I think it would be fun.

We miss not seeing you guys on our walks. I've been enjoying the warmer days, but it will take Noodles some time to get used to them. He does like to lay on the deck in the evenings while I do the dishes. He makes sure no birds enter the backyard.

I'm starting to think corgis are just a high spirited lot in general! I was shocked when he actually wanted to cuddle with me last night.
Sixty? Oh wow! I'm very excited to teach Eddie, but I don't want to overwhelm him right now, so I'm sticking to the basics. He knows sit, laydown, and shake-- along with things like "leave it." If only he'd learn to come when he's called...

We've been doing really well, thank you. Sorry to hear that you moved out of the neighborhood, but you are still fairly close. I'm really looking forward to the corgi walk in Portland at the end of this month. I can't wait to see that many corgi's in one place.
