(Already announced this on the facebook mycorgi page, but I'm bored at work now so I'm sharing again.:)

I had been going out with my boyfriend a few months last Thursday Dec 1st.  Well, he came to my place last night and I cooked dinner.  Had to call Dish Network b/c my TV wasn't working.  Well, got that taken care of while dinner was cooking so we could watch a show together. 

I got dinner cooked and went to the living room and Scout was kinda wound up.  So Jeremy was playing…

Someone shared this with me on Facebook this morning.  Enjoy!

Eddy and I had a fabulous summer, which ended with a 2 week Alaskan vacation.  I finally uploaded the photos of him from that trip.  I was sooo nervous about flying with him, but he did not seem traumatized or anything at all when we got off in Alaska, and then wasn't freaking out either in the airport on the return flight.  So now I know, he is a fly-OK corgi.  We met my sister's corgi, Andy, for the first time, which is half Eddy's age and size.   Very teeny.  He was SUPER cute,…

She was doing so well and then I come home at lunch today to a poo and pee mess in the pen:-(. I have no idea what brought this on. She finished her entire bowl of food in the morning for like the first time ever, but I don't know what brought the pee on.

At least I didn't cry. We're making progress in little ways!

Hi Everyone,

I have been using Plaque Off by Triple Pet in order to keep my Mac's teeth clean. He has been fine with this product but I was wondering if anyone knows if there are any dangers in using products like this. The product gets mixed with his water. The ingredients are purified filtered water, yucca schidigera, mint oil, and sodium benzoate. Mac is 1 year and 2 months old so his teeth are nice and clean and I would like to keep them that way. He really does not like his teeth…

Another shooting at Virginia Tech.  It's the day before finals begin, known as Reading Day, so there's no classes.  Just studying.  I had almost finished a take-home final and needed to go in today to check my work with a book in our department's reading room and turn my test in.  I was going to do this in the afternoon and I was going to park in the Colosseum parking lot so my walk wasn't as long or as cold when I got lunch.  Waffle changed my plans though.  My roommate…

I'm not the greatest at keeping up with things on here. I know it's been a really long time since I posted last. I guess Murphy and I have just been having too much fun. He will be 3 years old the day after Christmas and still as rowdy as ever. Life would be so boring without him though, he keeps us on our toes for sure. I should also mention that we are adding a new family member in the near future. Chris and I have decided to enter the world of parenthood so Murphy will be a big brother.…

Hello All!

I've been lurking around this place for some time now, so I guess it's about time I introduced myself.

Corgis have been my favorite dogs since I was about 8 or 9 years old - sometime around when I began studying the dog breeds books at the library. I didn't actually meet a Corgi til a few years ago, but that just sealed the deal! Although I'm a total horse-crazy 25 year old (caught the obsession when I was 10 and am now training/showing…

So I am having an issue with meeko and allergies.. at least I think its allergies? He is constantlly licking/biting his paws and lower half of his body and if if pet his back he goes nuts. Ive tried hot spot treatment but he wont hold still long enough for me to get the stuff on his skin because his fur is so think. He doesnt shed much at all( and im not just saying that). Im afraid that he is going to itch his skin open. Is it a bad idea to get him NOT SHAVED but trimmed so I can reach the…

Happy Birthday baby!

I got him some of his favorite treats from Three Dog Bakery to share with his BFF's Flintstone and Roxy!…

This is a picture of a known vandal.  This criminal is responsible for acts of destruction in our area.  Please be on the lookout for him in gardens, flower beds and other important landscaping. This  perp is so despicable that he has been known to vandalize flower pots!  If you see anyone fitting this description please smack them on the nose with a rolled up newpaper.…

So our girl Luna went out potties last night, didn't act sick or sickly, no problems, and settled down for the night.

The girls still sleep in their crates because they're still little and not terribly reliable on the chewing issue.

Well, my husband and I must have slept like ROCKS last night, because when my husband got up at 5am, he started wailing, Oh LUNAAAAAA!

She had exploded from _both ends_ all over her crate! vomit and diarrhea! Poor…

Well.. I know I haven't really been on here for very long, but I wanted to just say thanks to EVERYONE on here.

I haven't really talked to many people that consistantly, and most not at all. Still, thank you.

Why thanks? Because this site has helped me SO much. I mean, not just getting information and knowledge of the breed, hazards, common medical issues, etc.

But also because I've never had a group of anything that made me so happy! I can be having a crappy day, and…

Hey all, Ace has been a wonderful student so far with his clicker training and I have decided to try and graduate to intermediate behaviors in order to challenge him. One trick I'd like to teach him is "prance" - that is, the bouncy, feet picked-up gait that you can sometimes see in rhythmic obedience. The problem is, I know how to teach this to dogs with "normal" legs, not so much for Ace's dwarf stumps.

Have any of you had success in teaching a corgi to prance? Free-shaping…

So, Christmas is coming again; and with it the fleeting hope of maybe, just maybe, I could get a cute little pup under the tree. Deep down I know I'm not getting one, but a small childish part of me still longs to dream for a corgi with a red bow on Christmas...sigh...

Bear has always been my loyal keeper - no matter where I am, he is.  When the neighbor gives him a treat, he brings it into the house to "eat it with me."  When I stay up late, he stays in the living room with me until I head to bed.

Goldy has always been more independent and more of a loner.  She likes to go out and lie on the deck by herself, she likes to sit on the hill in the back yard and overlook her kingdom and at night, you can set your watch by her - she goes…

Oliver, who will be 6 months on 12/9, has most recently been regressing in his potty training.  Twice in the past week, he has pooped and peed on the floor.  He usually alerts us by barking, running in circles, etc.  We even recently trained him to ring jingle bells on our front door which he only seems to do when frantic.  Up until this week, he has been very good and we have had few accidents, and if any, only pee.  Any insight or info would be appreciated.  We are frustrated corgi…

I haven't told my family about our puppy, Ein. 

Thoughts?

How do you tell your family that you are spending a bunch of money on a puppy, and avoid the condescending responses? I know we have made the right choice, regardless of other's opinions and wishes. We have been planning for this for over a year, now. It probably would be easier if they knew that haha but we thought we'd be getting a puppy in March and our little Ein came sooner than expected. And I am going to…

As Charlie walked with his rifle in the Arizona dese rt far south of Phoenix,  near the old airport where his business was based, he spotted something moving off in the distance. Through the scrub brush and mesquite bushes a small shape moved through the otherwise lifeless desert. Charlie raised his rifle and peered through the scope. “It must be a small badger or something”…

I don't know if any of you have seen this before... but if not you should watch it. It's not corgis, but it'll definitely melt your heart. 10 beagles were rescued from a lab and let out of their crates into the sunshine and grass for the first time in their lives. My Lilu is part beagle so I see her in each of their faces. I can't imagine if something like that had happened to her.…
