Periodically, I check Petfinder to see if there are any Corgis in kill shelters in my area.  I am happy to report that in several years of looking, I have not seen any.  I have seen some puppy-mill rescues or owner surrenders in no-kill shelters within a few hundred miles of here, but that's about it.

I do see a TON of "Corgi mixes."

There are almost no Corgi breeders anywhere near me, and all the pets I've ever met (there aren't many) are neutered.  In other…

Went to the beach last weekend and had a ball of a time. The dogs have been at half-energy ever since, so spastic was their frenetic frapping.

I did see something that gave me pause though. My boyfriend was playing with them with a piece of washed up cane. Those strong, sturdy, springy kind of canes. Reagan got a little bit over eager and snapped the end off.

Not by twisting or chewwing or worrying it. He jumped up, caught it with his back teeth and in the same motion…

I love animals. Every time I go to the animal shelter, I find several new friends that I would love to take home. I truly wish that I could save every animal, but I know that it not possible.

Ashton competed in his very first AKC Agility trial and we are so happy with him. He loves agility so much. We went into the trial hoping for the best but expecting, well, a corgi. He was the amazing all-or-nothing pup and competed in Standard (the course with the A-frame, tunnels, dog walk, etc..) and in Jumpers With Weaves (like it sounds, jumps and weave poles, sometimes a…

For some reason lately I've been wanting to dote on the dogs more than usual and have had urges to give them some of my table scraps. In the past I've always been strict about not giving them any people food and sticking with minimal amounts of dog treats. I don't know what's come over me all of the sudden, but I felt like I needed an outlet. So I did a quick search and found these 2 articles: 10…

I just heard some sad news today that one of my family members lost her beloved Jack Russell, Bandit, today.  He went in on Monday for some blood tests and he had cirrhosis of the liver and had to be put down.

My heart breaks for Gramma Linda. Bandit was her baby and was so well cared for and loved. He always smelled like baby powder and was so squeaky clean all the time :)  I wish I had a picture of him. He was an adorable grey wire haired jack russell that was pretty small…

As we were newlyweds in our first home… we had quite a lot on our plate. We both really wanted a dog… we knew we needed more time. Of course life is what happens while you are making plans.

We both agreed that we would like…

Corgi takes it home

yesterday my puppy zeus got his shots including a rabies vaccine from the vet, he was so sick and he threw up last night also, has this happened to anyone else and is this normal? he is still a little out of it today, I feel so bad for him :(

So my mother decided to get creative for Easter this year and is requiring all of us (me, my grandparents, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins, nephew, etc.) to all wear home-made easter bonnets, so naturally I had to make some…
