We had to say goodbye to our beloved corgi, Kujo, on Saturday afternoon :( 

He started feeling poorly on Friday night, I got him in to the vet first thing on Saturday morning. At first they thought he had kidney stones but after further tests they found a very large cancerous tumor in his bladder.  Bladder cancer is very deadly in dogs and there was absolutely nothing that could be done for him.  We are missing him like crazy and our house just isn't the same without him.  We have a 3…

When I moved into my apartment complex a few months ago, I met my neighbour Ruby and her chihuahua Bianca. We often take the dogs out at the same time, and one day, Ruby mentioned to me that she had seen another corgi in our complex, named Olive. 

Last night, I was walking from my car to my apartment with groceries, and lo! There was a young woman walking her fluffy corgi. I said, "This must be Olive!" It was. :) Olive was very friendly - much more extroverted than…

My corgi, Sassy, got a cow hoof from her groomer at Christmas.  Has any one else given them to their corgis?

I've read that the rawhide is not good for their stomachs. But I never read any thing about cow hoofs.  Sassy really likes to chew on them.

When we got Bucher as a puppy, he was quite the hit in our neighborhood.  We had really great neighbors and so we all would hang out together in the summer.  Our neighbor’s two houses away, Ann & Brian, really liked Boo so they ended up rescuing a corgi Kujo.  We no longer live in that neighborhood, but still stop and visit.  We just stopped last month to visit with Ann, Brian & of course Kujo and they also have another dog Easton.  I told Ann about this site and was so excited when…

We're in a bit of a pattern here in Kentucky.

It snows, all the schools close, we're out for a day or two, the skies clear for 5 days, then the cycle repeats.

This cycle has almost repeated perfectly since the 2nd week of December - if it weren't so troublesome it would be amazing.

Here is yet another short video of my two beasts enjoying the snow.

Besides baking and cleaning, videoing the dogs is one of the few things that…

Luca is home now! Here's a few things I've noticed in the two days she's been home

-She doesn't like her collar.

-She despises the leash.

-She hates her crate.

-She loves her food so much that she swallows it whole and spits it back up. :[

-She wants to chew on everything(expected) especially on mom's hands/toes. 

-She follows my every step. this makes me happy :]

-She has picked up pretty quickly that potty time is…

So in my last blog posts I wrote about my corgi Dax, who has had terrible allergic reactions to who-knows-what over the last couple of years. This last August/September was the worst it had ever been. Dax had been on multiple allergy medications (both holistic and regular veterinary medications) and the only thing that had seemed to give him any relief from his constant itching was a double-dose of prednisone. I even had him shaved so that I could attempt some topical meds (which didn't even…

Ella's got her first trip to a groomers tomorrow.  I usually just bath her myself, but our new town has so many choices for groomers that I thought I'd give it a try.  A local pet store (that I love) has a separate small pet salon w/ just one groomer and a helper.  It's by appointment only and I loved that her first questions were "what's your dog's name" "what breed of dog is she". Then once she had the type of dog, then she could schedule for the time she would need for Ella.

I like…

The wind nearly blew us away but the corgis didn't seem to…

I introduced corgilicious to the barn's resident Great Danes today. There are three at the barn...a senior male (11 years old!!!) tan, a one year old blue female, and a tan GD/something mix.   I don't think the corgis had ever met dogs as big as the Danalicious so I was a bit worried they would be intimidated and be rude. After all, these are the two that give stink eye and like to boss anything around. I think the corgs thought they were ponies or something, it was no big deal.  What a…

Hi Corgi friends,

As many of you know, last August Sidney was diagnosed with hip dysplasia, and he underwent FHO surgery in order to give him mobility and alleviate some of the pain. If you've been reading my blog posts, you've seen how he did in his recovery and how he's moving really well now and walks without a limp. It was the right choice to get him the surgery.
