Maggie is now almost 9 months old. She has been housebroken since we got her at 5 months old. The only problem is when it comes to carpet (which we have in our basement and one bedroom). For some…Continue
Doggie talk ???

Is it normal for Corgi's to "talk" ? Maggie will sit and respond to me talking to her with a sound that is not like a growl or a bark. Crazy little buggers....

Kevan hudson replied to Laura and Maggie Moo's discussion Desperate for advice on behaviour issues"Hi Laura,it seems you have yourself in a nasty position,Maggie is probably feeling unsure about her place in the family,you stated you have gotten a new puppy? Your kids are probably playing with the new puppy, everyone is probably paying more…"
Laura and Maggie Moo replied to Laura and Maggie Moo's discussion Desperate for advice on behaviour issues" A lot of people have suggested the " nothing is free" training. We have started using it, but it is too early to notice any major changes. Much of what you mentioned seems to apply to us. My family and I do not have the ability…"
Laura and Maggie Moo replied to Laura and Maggie Moo's discussion Desperate for advice on behaviour issues"Thanks for asking. Maggie does not have a UTI, generally speaking she does not have any physical issues. Our vet said to try another training class. The next class however does not start for another 6 weeks. GRRRRrr"
"Whenever we have brought a new dog in the house our older dog had accidents. We had a lot of behavior issues with Snickers including potty accidents. We started the nothing is free training a year ago and she has totally turned around. She very…"

Just checking in - Let us know what the vet said and how things are going when you have a chance.
Wishing you the best!

Edison replied to Laura and Maggie Moo's discussion Desperate for advice on behaviour issues"In our house, Edison comes over and furiously licks the face of anyone who's crying or upset. And when my husband and I have a spat, he jumps up in a request to be held. It's amazing how fast having a dog in your arms drains…"
Anna Morelli replied to Laura and Maggie Moo's discussion Desperate for advice on behaviour issues"Not a counselor, just lived a long time :-) Your animals respond to your energy, their sensing mechanisms are more fine tuned than people. Not only can their behavior be affected by your stress levels, and stress in the environment, so can…"
Jane Christensen replied to Laura and Maggie Moo's discussion Desperate for advice on behaviour issues"Stress can definatly cause dog troubles. My corgis are very receptive to my stress and get more "barky" the more stressed I am. Livvy(my most difficult) lives to play ball (the small fetch it ball) and if I faithfully do this at least 3…"
Laura and Maggie Moo replied to Laura and Maggie Moo's discussion Desperate for advice on behaviour issues"Thank you so much for your and everyone elses replies. I will be making a vet appiontment this week to make sure there are not health issues.
As far as exercise, I feel like she does get a lot of exercise either by running after squirels in the back…"
Laura and Maggie Moo replied to Laura and Maggie Moo's discussion Desperate for advice on behaviour issues"Anna,
Shall I presume you are some kind of a counselor? You brought up a valid and otherwise not mentioned issue. Yes, we/I are very busy family. We both work and I am also in grad school, my level of stress is always high. Would stress be a cause…"
Anna Morelli replied to Laura and Maggie Moo's discussion Desperate for advice on behaviour issues"Others have given excellent replies. I would just like to add that the animals in our lives can be a barometer for what goes on in the family. You have a lot piled up on your plate and trying to keep up with all the demands may be taking a…"
Vee Luther replied to Laura and Maggie Moo's discussion Desperate for advice on behaviour issues"I'll echo what others have said:
1. get her checked for a urinary tract infection ASAP, follow the vet's advice and meds
2. COMMITT to 45 minutes of walk time, on a leash, with her at your side not pulling you each and every day no matter…"
steve smith replied to Laura and Maggie Moo's discussion Desperate for advice on behaviour issues"Sounds like to me she is crying out for exercise."
Bev Levy replied to Laura and Maggie Moo's discussion Desperate for advice on behaviour issues"I heartily agree with Beth on this. Have her checked by a vet and if no health issue go back to square one. Exercise will help a lot. Also, make sure the puppy is not being too rowdy with her. She should get a break from him once in a while and he…"
Profile Information
- About Me:
- A new owner of a pembroke corgi. Loving every minute of it. Typical family life keeps us busy. We have two daughters 8 and 4 and of course our newest corgi daughter. I have wanted a Corgi since I was young--they were in one of my favorite books! We have one other 17 yr old dog (a lab mix) and a cat. I would love to get a Cardigan Corgi as well, but we need to wait until we have more space :)
- Welsh Corgi Breeder?
- No
- About My Corgi(s):
- we adopted Maggie when she was 5months old (she is now almost 7months) from a family who found they did not have the time to properly care for her. She came to us house broken but lacking socialization with anything having to do with the outside world. We are working hard to accustom her to as much as possible and make up for lost time! She is VERY active, loves to run and fetch, and of course herd our two girls. Somehow in the last month one of her ears has "flopped" over adding to her charm. Maggie is our first Corgi.
- I have:
- Pembroke

Natalie & Lance &Tucker said… - awww, how fun your corgi enjoys swimming in the water!! Congrats on adopting Maggie, shes such a cutie. We just adopted Tucker (red and white pem) about 3 months ago, (June 6th to be exact). Our cardigan (Lance) we have had since he was 14 weeks old, and never has had the opportunity to go swimming, we are going to have to change that this summer and let both dogs go for a swim!

It looks like it is going to rain on Sunday. I hope it doesn't so we can all meet up.
Lori Fouch is going to have another litter of corgis. We left a message with her to see when they will be born. Maybe you can get a little friend for Maggie! LOL

...and Deborah too! Well, not so much "a welcome", but more of a "hello!" I saw you Corgi pic and popped in to your page...and I see you are from GR!!! Awesome! I live about 45 miles north of GR, up by Howard City! I've been looking for other Corgi owners who might be nearby. Maggie is adorable! Do you get together with other Corgi people in this area? I would be very interested in corgi events in the GR area...Nice to meet you!!! :)

- Congrats on finding littermates and so close to home that is awesome!! :) We have found some of Lances (cardigan corgi) relatives, which was so exciting, although they are not in the same state as us, boo!! As far as Tuckers relatives, Im thinking we wont find any of his since we rescued him from the shelter about a week ago and dont have much ifno on him.
