Jan 10-11

Well, it's been quiet an uneventful week. YAY! Out of the 4 times I have left the house in the last 2 days, only yesterday afternoon was there minor barking and whining, which stopped after only a few minutes. I had 3 times of NO BARKING! YAY!

Shy dog class on Tuesday was interesting. I am the only single person there with the most crazy dog who is also the youngest and have had my dog the least time. She was quiet distracted (a big problem for us) when we did the exercises, but when…

Colorado Corgi Needs HOME

Friends have been fostering "PUMPKIN", a 7 y/o sable/white spayed F Corgi since her sister and hubby were transferred to Okinawa.  They found that they cannot move Pumpkin there and also face further deployments.  The foster folks have had the Corgi for nearly a year and can't do this much longer.  Colorado Corgi Rescue is very limited in its resources and facilities and can't accept any more dogs now.  Further there seems to be a shortage of DEMAND for Corgis here in the Colorado Springs…

Depressed...

I find myself just sick with sadness today.  I woke up and checked Facebook and saw that two friends are trying to find homes for abandoned dogs they have found.  The past few week have been full of similar posts on numerous sites I follow.  To top if it off, some one posted a picture of a dog with the upper part of its face blown off.  It was the result of kids putting a high-powered fire cracker in it's mouth!!  I can never unsee that image and I have been thinking about it all day.  I…

To the Rescue Again!

We are going over today to pick up "Lucky" and then transport him to a MN rescue organization this weekend.  Lucky is a 2-3 year old unaltered male tri.  His owner was a 60-some year old lady running a dog rescue out of her farm for the past 20 years.  Unfortunately, the animal rescue guy said she is losing her farm so she had to give up all of her dogs :(  He said they are all in great shape and were well taken care of.  Guess she had 24 outside (including Lucky) and another 14 in the…

Well the last 24 hours have been a roller coaster of super highs and super lows.

We'll start with the lows (because I want to end on the highs):

-Came home at lunch to pee in the pen, AGAIN. Same thing happened on Friday and I even made the pen smaller and Poppy still pee'd. I was so annoyed. And this has only happens in the morning too!

-When we got back from our late night walk, she drank a lot of water, slightly more then usual I noticed, but didn't think twice.…

Jan 6-8

Well, this weekend was interesting. I came home at lunch on Friday to pee in the pen, which hasn't happened all week. I wonder what brought it? It frustrated me, but since it already happened, there wasn't much I could do to Poppy at that moment. What I did do was make her pen smaller so there is really only room for her bed and food/water dishes, which is something I should have done a while ago. She only seems to pee like once a week, but maybe this will help is not happening again. We'll…

Agility Update

We are currently training for our first AKC agility trial at the end of February. I am very excited. Because UKC was our first experience at novice level, there was no need to know the weaves. This is definitely not the case for AKC. So weaves have been the main focus of most of our training sessions.

As a New Years resolution, I decided to put some more dedication into agility training for Baxter and Ziggy. Since the new year, we've had three training sessions and one group class.…

Spoiled much?

I went up north wedding dress shopping with friends this weekend (Fri, Sat, Sun) and left Scout at Jeremy's apartment.  I was glad to be able to do this since he just got his landlord's approval that she was allowed to stay.  Well, I got a funny report when I got back last night:

She was perfect Friday night, then he had to work 1/2 day Saturday.  Came home to her happily sleeping in his bed (which is probably too high off the ground for her, but with no supervision, she figured that…

Montana Corgi Survives Avalanche

What an amazing corgi to survive an avalanche, and then walk 4 miles to the motel to find his owners and sat in front of the door waiting for them. The owners thought he was dead and headed back home to Bozeman. They got the call that he was alive, how wonderful. But very sad that the father/husband was killed in the avalanche. Can watch video. google dog survives avalanche. So dedicated and devoted to his owners.

Bartleby's Night in the ER

So my little fella decided it would be a fun treat while I was cleaning the bathroom to snack on a pack of gum. Of course it had to have xylitol in it so I induced vomiting and had to take him to the ER. There'll be a pill he has to take and I have to feed him at four hour intervals for the next 12 hours but hopefully the little bugger should be okay. Good thing I caught him pretty quickly afterwards. Apparently dogs can have come serious side effects like a diabetic coma or liver failure.…

Odd behavior

Meeko is now almost 10 months and he has started doing something weird. It started with a new sweater I recieved at christmas and now he does it with everything. When he smells my new sweater  (recieved from a native american store) he pushes his nose right up to it and pulls away about 2 inches and his mouth opens and closes slowly but in steady movements. Like he is suckling but with nothing in his mouth. He now does it to things outside? Is it like one of those thing to help him smell…

Jan 4-5

Since things have calmed down a lot, I am probably not going to update every day, a good thing!!!

The worst thing was on Wednesday when I took Poppy outside for our midday walk, she pee'd on the stairs in my apartment building, which she had never done before. Grrrrrrrr. So since then, I pretty much run her down as fast as we can.

In other news, I video taped her in the afternoon (which I wrote about last time) and then I video taped her in the morning, after a shorter walk and…

So angry.

Not a corgi but just looked at my phone and a semi-friend just asked me if I wanted her puppy (4 months) for some stupid reason they got the brother and sister I think. AAARRRGGGHHHH now what, I hope she won't send it to the pound. The only picture I saw was he was black, probably going to be some lab mix I suspect.
