And the snow just keeps on coming...

 

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…

Finally getting allergy tested!!!....any last minute advise?

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…

Dog poisoning

I am sorry to report that my sister in-law who got a corgi ( Axel ) about one month after we got our Quin, is having trouble with her neighbor who is poisoning her dogs. One of the dogs who was a Boston terrier and belonged to her daughters boyfriend died and Axel was in very bad shape, he was vomiting blood and had blood in his urine. Terry has spent a lot of money at the vets, luckily she found the poisoned patties in the backyard and took them to the vet and the police I guess Axel was… Continue

My Obedience Training Diary

This blog is a place for me to makes notes on what I'm learning in my 8 week obedience training course with my 4 month old corgi Ein. Feel free to read my posts and follow our obedience journey, but remember that this is very new to me, so the things I will be posting are things we are just now trying and learning.

Groomers for the first time

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…

Dry skin?!

My dog has never itched this much in her life. She is constantly scratching/biting her tummy. She doesn't have fleas and I think it's because of the cold weather she just has dry skin....Does anybody else have this problem with their corgi around this time of year? I gave her a bath with oatmeal body wash and I'm going to the vet tomorrow to get fish oil pills because apparently that helps....But just double checking to see other opinions!

Corgilicious Made New Friends Today!

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…

Last ditch Plea, help me find homes!!

Hi everyone, throwing out my last ditch plea to find help to find homes for 2 of my remaining pups from the litter my Foster Tri-Pem had November 17.  I have 2 females left, a Merle and a Tri.  They are MIXED with Dad unknown, but cute none the less.  One My Corgi Member has the other sister, Oona.  If anyone knows anyone interested in a Corgi Mix, please contact me.  My next move is placing a local ad, which, I so DO NOT want to do!! Thanks so very much!… Continue

Way to go my Sagie girl!!!!

I am so proud of Sage tonight. She hasn't been able to come to work with me all week as we have a new person who moved in and this person has MS. Today was Sage's first chance to meet the person and Sage did wonderful. She listened and was perfectly behaved when near this person. Actually after a few hours the person wanted Sage to move in (I had to say "no" but she can visit often:) Although we haven't started formal training for Therapy Dog we will do one more obedience class and then test… Continue

Introducing...Scarves for Sidney

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.

Crate training

Short post/update

 

Just wanted to let everyone know, We started crate training our 8 week old Oona the night we got her (Saturday 1-15-11), and tonight is the second night in a row she has "gone to bed" with zero crying/whining!

 

I don't think 4-5 nights is bad at all! I am proud of my little girl, proud of Nate and Myself for being strong in the face of puppy tears (the most heartwrenching sound I have ever had to endure), and proud of Roslyn for being such a…

Ancient Texans loved dogs!

Ancient Texans loved dogs.

To eat.

An interesting thing to think about when thinking about how our domestic dogs came about. Bred to be guards, hunters and in a pinch, food insurance.

A couple of things

First of all, I'm going to be starting up a blog soon on http://mydogisfunsized.blogspot.com .  Right now I'm working on making a background for it, and because it is called "My Dog is Fun Sized", I decided to go with the theme of dogs in chocolate bar wrappers costumes.  I thought it would be fun to come up with some corgi themed candy bar names to put on them. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.  These are the ones that I've…

First day alone

Today was Picadilly's first day home alone for an extend period of time while my mom and dad went to work and I had classes. She was good and didn't wreck or go potty anywhere and we were so proud of her. We were kinda worried how she would handle it because since we had her whenever someone would leave she would sit at the door and cry and scratch the door until either that person came back or someone would get her from the door. I know that when I left it took a lot out of me to not want…
