BTW, I didn't mean to compare your loss of Corky to my loss of Lucky. I was truly guilty. I let him out because I was too lazy to walk him and he got hit by a car. Out and out guilt. Your situation was an accident.

My prayers are out there for Katie to have a little Joey. I read the story about Joey and my heart broke. I too was responsible for the loss of my very first dog when I was a teenager. I was careless and lazy and it cost me my beloved Lucky. It took me forever to be able to think about him w/o feeling stabbing pains of guilt. My very next dog was a Corgi & I've been owned by Corgis ever since. I guess you have to feel blessed for the time you had with him and know the joy and love that he gave you was reciprocal. Any dog, but especially a Corgi, is mighty lucky indeed to be part of the Wiley family. Sending all of you big hugs and love. Wendy

I was so sad to learn from Kathy about Joey. My heart goes out to you and I know that there are no words, just time to heal the pain. Joey was so loved and happy. I hope that gives you comfort. Condolences from Jack and me.

Spring Roundup:

Here's how we do it on the west coast.  A few strays are always missed in the Fall Roundup, so we gather the stragglers in early Spring.  Might seem odd to you, but wee're sorta at the other end of the beef industry.
