Lucky Update Updated lol!

Some time ago I was able to help rescue a cute little Pem boy named Lucky...

http://www.mycorgi.com/profiles/blogs/to-the-rescue-again

After arriving at his foster rescue, he was diagnosed with heartworms!!  Oh no!!  I have heard from his foster family that he is doing well with the treatment and will soon be released for outside activities.  Can't imagine they will have any…

Aussie corgi?

So after MUCH debate, I might be able to get my lovely boyfriend to budge on a corgi mix. Does anyone know where we could find a aussie corgi perhaps? We are willing to take in a rescue as long as it does not have too many health problems.

A New Normal

It has now been twelve days since Murphy passed away. He was my very best friend and most loyal companion, and I know that because we both cherished each other so fully in life, that I am able to heal a lot easier than I thought I would. Maya and Moses have been a HUGE help and I am so lucky and thankful that they were, and are, here.

 

Maya was the baby of the group, and acted as such. She still chewed on things, barked incessantly, jumped up on everyone, wasn't trusted alone…

Weekend trip to meet my first breeder!

This past Saturday I drove up to Ranier Oregon to meet with Sue Sebring of Corgis of Narnia. She was a VERY nice woman I got to meet all of her 14 corgis, she has 12 Pems and 2 Cardis. They were all so beautiful, nice, and well taken care of. She really seems to know what she is doing, she is very organized, all the dogs have been tested against DM and Von Willabrands. She is planning on breeding one of the beautiful females in June, I cant remember her name, but she is gorgeous. She invited…

An Addition

Just found out form my sil that there's a corgi mix in a shelter (no kill) up by them in Black River Falls.  She's worried he won't get addopted as no one around there knows what a corgi is.  DH is going to check him out and may be bringing him home.  If he doesn't work outg with our 2 pups we may need to rehome, but hoepfully all will go well.

tricks again....

I have been working with Bailie on 'take it' but I'm having a lot of difficulty. I have tried using multiple toys but I can't seem to get her interested enough and the few times she would take it she drops it as soon as i open my mouth to praise her. Any suggestions?

Now, the hard part.

It's Sunday.  He looks like he feels 100% better--maybe 90 or 95%.  He wants to do things now and he isn't okay with not doing them. It's so hard to ignore his frequent requests to play and whining to go outside.  But I can't.  I musn't.  He must stay still, at least for today, and then we can do baby things the rest of the week so we are prepared to return to the hiking circuit.  …

Anyone have a corgi from Cypress Kennels in Vacaville?

We have a new little boy from there and I'm hoping to find relatives.  Let me know if your corgi is from there!

Story of the Welsh Corgi

Corgi Fantasy

by Anne Biddlecombe Reprinted with permission of the Welsh Corgi League

Would you know where Corgis came from? How they came to live with mortals?

On the Mountains of the Welsh-land In its green and pleasant valleys, Lived the Peasant folk of old times, Lived our fathers and grandfathers; And they toiled and laboured greatly With their cattle and their ploughing, That their…

That feeling when you're typing...

...and you look at what you typed and it's missing letters everywhere.  

That means it's time to pull all the Corgi hair out from under the keys.

NOOOOOOOOOOO.

In the meantime, Waffle is recovering well.  I took him on a car ride today.  In hindsight, that was probably an awful idea.

Dang you Uncle Frank!

So Saber didn't use to beg.  You could eat food in the same room and she wouldn't care.  Then came Easter...and Uncle Frank.  Uncle Frank has a cattle dog that he lets eat whatever he wants.  As he puts it, he could put a bowl of kibble and a bowl of human food next to each other and the dog will never go for the kibble. So why give it just kibble. *SIGH*  Either way, we knew about his habits and told him not to give our dog table scraps.  We weren't with both of them 100% of the time and I…

Early morning "adventure"

Never have I been so thankful for my dogs ears as I was this morning. 

 

At 5 am, Kaida got up and started growling/barking, so I got up to take her out thinking she just needed to go potty.  Well, I got her collar and leash on, start to take her out and then I hear another dogs tags jingling.  I get Kaida back inside with a bit of effort then grab a flashlight and broom (it was the closest "weapon" I could find!).  I slowly venture into our backyard as we've had instances of…

The Boys

Here are pictures of Taffy and Huey that were taken earlier this week.   I can't believe how much they have changed. We can't wait to get them home. May 7th isn't too far off.…

The Grave

 

I finally got Stinky Wink's grave pretty much finished. I'll have to wait for the bricks to settle more, so I can level them, tighten them, and mortar between them. I am so pleased with the stone that Chris made and the Corgi statue I got from eBay.  The irises will soon be blooming on three sides. I am going to plant dianthus to the north side of the grave…

Not Without My Corgi: The Toby Jones Story

Hey Guys!

 

Wanted to share the amazing story of how my corgi, Toby, was once kidnapped by my crazy landlord and her animal activist neighbor; I hired a private detective and was able to find him and get him back.  100% true.  I recently wrote it up on my blog and thought I would share with other corgi lovers:…

Someone sent this around on that other, large social network site but I thought you all would enjoy it.  You  will have to get all the way to the end for the big pay off.

A Boy and a Toy

Okay, I know this isn't exactly an astonishing event but I thought I would make a blog post about it anyway.

I HAVE SUCCEEDED IN MAKING ACE INTERESTED ENOUGH IN A TOY TO PLAY WITH IT ON HIS OWN!



This is really groundbreaking for me, and especially for Ace. Ever since he entered my life, he has NOT played with toys. Sure, he would tug…

I feel like a crazy person

I'm carrying my 32 pound dog up and down the stairs in broad daylight in front of my whole apartment complex.

He is just sick!  He isn't a princess!  I promise!

Thanks everyone for your well wishes.  He is improving and getting more and more difficult to contain. 

In other news, someone left a tube of cinnamon rolls on the sidewalk and they exploded.  There is icing and dough everywhere and it smells delicious.

I can't wait to get…
