Tuffy is 3 months old today and I have had him for a whole week, lol! I have never had my heart stolen so quickly by a furry kid, and by some one with such short legs ;) We are busy potty training and learning our manners as he would like to chew on everyone and everything. He is worth every moment, but right now I feel like he will
never be housebroken! I know I have to e patient but I feel like we haven't made any progress. I work from home so I am always here and I hate to put…

So Oppy is almost 12 weeks now and it seems like he hasn't made any progress with the potty training. He never messes in his crate, and he has not pooped in the house yet, but he keeps peeing all over the place. We take him outside when he starts sniffing around and he'll pee once or twice while we're out. When he goes outside he gets a piece of treat and a "good boy". 10-15 minutes after coming inside, he'll pee on the carpet. Most of the time we don't catch him because it's hard to tell when…

Boy does my boy love to run. Now if I can get him to quit nipping at our older dog. =(
Oh and my mom's grey cat is actually climbing the walls with disgust at the puppy. Poor kitty.

Let’s say you’re walking along your town’s main street with your person. When you hit a particular corner, you, of course, want to make a sharp right so you can stop in and visit at the two (yes two!) dog food stores along the block. Your person, for reasons that are completely unclear, appears to be intent upon going straight. How do you fix this situation? You will need to begin with….
Stage 1: Cement paws to the sidewalk, stiffen up the legs, and smile like a nutbar (tongue…

This is the last thing I wanted to post today. Thank you everyone for all the support and prayers and virtual hugs Gary, Tiki and I received this past month. We made the decision at 4:00 this morning to put him down today. He was in pain and we knew it. The new meds didn't work, and the old meds were even worse. So at 10:30 this morning our brave little Tiki boy ventured out to the rainbow bridge. It was a hard road for us, and we did everything we could for him. Rest in peace little man. Mommy…

I am picking up a red Pembroke female, , 1yr old, tonite. She had been adopted but family returned her to original owner( per agreement) due to unforseen circumstances NOT involving any pup issues. I am a 1st time Corgi owner, and have been reading up like a mad woman but would welcome ANY advice, photos of YOUR reds and things "you wish you'd known! We live in PA now, but will soon be relocating to Upstate NY. Love to meet any NY Corgi folks! Share, share, share!!!!!
Thanks!

Well this morning I contacted the vet and they changed up some meds. We took him off the Piroxicam since it was making thing worse. We are waiting at least until Thursday to start back up on the Deramaxx. The ups and down of this cancer is an emotional roller coaster. I found some shirts online at cancersucks.com that I plan on buying. I also lost my father-in-law and my husbands Grandma to cancer last year with in a two month period so now I really have a reason to own one of these shirts.…

Dexy got his ears up today, the left one flops a bit when he runs, but we're very excited that they stand on their own.
In other news, we've also decided its good to potty outside and that "sit" means sit. What a smart puppy.

Lilly and I want to thank everyone for your encouragement and thoughtfulness. I am happy to say that she is so much better!!! It was very scary and even after she came home, the recovery has been slow but steady. It has been only in the last 2 days that the 'old Lilly' has emerged. She has one more day on the bland, bland dog food and then she will be able to eat her usual.
Surprisingly though - even with all the trauma to her system, she only lost 1 pound. Youth was on her side. I a!so…

Me and Zwei went today in the pouring rain to go get his rabies shot done at the low vacc clinic. :)
Initially I was afraid that he'd be too aggressive to let out, but after being out for a bit he did just fine. He did bark a few times though at the larger pits, but he got along really well with a poodle-chihuahua mix. Though -- he was reaaaally friendly with all the humans and kept trying to chase after the attendant when she was walking down the line.
We were surrounded by…

Oh man, since we have gotten this puppy he has not been boring!! I wouldn't mind if he ate or got into things that weren't harmful to him, but I guess he is a daredevil haha. He has eaten the trash, chocolate girl scout cookies, a whole box of cheese bread from Domino's (including the box), 3 slices of pepperoni pizza, a whole box of dieting tea (which is supposed to cleanse your body, so needless to say I was cleaning up that for a few days), a bottle of ranch dressing, and today he ripped…

We are forever going to be seaching for Bear. I sit here to day crying about him. I have other dogs as well but Bear was my personal dog that was with me when I lost my husband and was my forever dog. The day he came missing tore my heart into pieces. We know the people that stole him from the truck and trailer I saw the day I came home to let him out to go potty. They pulled over by my mailbox and picked my dog up. Now they keep there horses down the street from me. I want my dog back. I don't…

Yesterday wasn't good and today is shaping up the same way. The only thing we have going for us is we still like to eat, be with us and chew on bones. Tiki is hardly walking and cries when you try to help him up. He tries to go potty but has trouble standing. He started leaking urine last night an I've been cleaning everything so we can get through the rest of today. I have a feeling, tomorrow will be his last. I know this sound short and to the point, but I can't keep the tears back enough to…

I was wondering if anyone has noticed this happening with their corgi....... When we take wilf out for his walk he is always in a hurry but we have noticed that he trips up on his own paws!!! It doesnt seem to happen when he is chasing a ball and running around like hes never been out for 6 months but i cant help but worry as to why it should happen. I would be happy to get you guys opinions
