These past few weeks

Have been interesting for "The Mau" Long weekend with her buddy Carmah, and then the next weekend to go out to the farm to see my bf's family and she can run with their dog pack. Every morning we woke up to her getting into mischief and hurt in some way just about. Friday morning she jumped into the pond and was cool with it because the other dogs did it. However, we always joke about her ears never miss a thing... this this time it was a bad thing. Apparently at full speed, she ran past a… Continue

I miss my corgikins!

I work in at a school as a speech therapy assistant, and I'm working on my Master's over the summer. So I am in Flagstaff away from my fiance and my puppykins for a week at a time! I'm so sad. I have my MyCorgi calendar in my dorm so that helps a little bit. The June corgi, Steve, is so adorable! But I miss cuddling my fiance and my little Nibbler :(

Almost home!

The wedding was perfect and the reception was amazing! I will post pictures when I am in front of my desk top instead of my new husbands lappy.

Honeymooning in Zion National park was just what Nate and I needed to start our new lives together. Nate having graduated from college just last month needed a break before officially starting his new job hunt (so if anyone knows of any I.T. /management positions available in the U.S.....)

We just finished packing and…

Thanks

It's been 1 week & I still can't look at his picture without tearing up. His ashes were delivered in a beautiful walnut box yesterday. So fitting for him. The vets sent sympathy cards & I crumbled when I read their thoughts on what a special dog he was & saw the laminated paw print they included. Gwenny has been so quiet & Charlie just looks worried all the time. I am so grateful for the kind words & sentiments from all of you. I do believe he is just over the bridge &… Continue

Lisa Scottoline's "My Third Husband Will Be A Dog"

I picked this book up at Barnes and Noble today - why? Well, the title was funny and there was a corgi on the back cover. If you're a woman looking for a great summertime read, this one is a must!

Here's a link to the pictures of her doggies - scroll WAY down for pics of Ruby the Corgi. I've posted one of them below this post.…

Just some thing I thought others might like.

Well Gwenie and I have been doing some online shopping. I found this http://www.etsy.com/shop/NoCrybabyDoGs She makes cards using your dogs picture. I hadn't seen it in a while. She made Gwenie cards and this cute magnet of her. You may want to check her out. I guess note cards are old fashioned but I use them as Thank cards for gifts. I guess I always think of corgi lovers as being polite people! Check out her site.

Donde Esta Bear

OK, I've been negligent (again) and not posted a Where's Bear in a while so I thought that I would throw this one out there for Y'all. I just saw this location on one of those "Biggest & Best of TV shows" and thought that it might make a pretty good Where's Bear or as our good friend Oscar Garza sometimes ask "Donde Esta Chili Bean". He sometimes calls Bear Chili Bean. And, because He and Bear are pretty tight; Bear puts up with it. OK, So, here…

A True Corgi Lover At Heart

When I was 10 years old I met my first corgi, Tink. I've never been able to get Tink out of my head, she plays fetch in my dreams at night, and used to grace the cover of all my notebooks in school. So 10 years later when I had my first oportunity to own a dog, it was of course a corgi. Cody came into my life a year ago last December. And now Adalade will be joining our pack on Thursday. But my simple owning of corgis isnt what makes me a corgi lover. It is the fact that my house has enough…

New Puppy, Common Dillema - He Needs a Name!

Yesterday we welcomed this guy into our home:

An absolutely adorable tri-colored male - with both his tail AND dew claws. I'm very happy that we managed to find a little guy with all of himself!

Anywho - we've been trying to find a name that fits so I'm hoping you all might help us out. So far he is a VERY vocal, brave and small boy. He's about 7 1/2 weeks old and he's only a touch over 3 pounds. He's insanely licky though. His… Continue

Advice for First Overnight Corgi Travel?

Does anyone have insights about preparing for our first overnight trip with Tegan? I found a wonderful hotel in Monterey that welcomes dogs, so we will be spending four days/three nights with Tegan in the hotel. We will be bringing all of the obvious things -- her crate, food & dishes, toys, bed, & the all important treats, but I'm sure people who've traveled with their corgi have had…

My corgi eats everything he shouldnt

My 2 and a half year old male eats everything he shouldnt. I cant have balls to play with because he chews them open and start to eat it peice by peice. He chews up all his stuffed toys, eats and swallows the stuffing and then the squeeky toy inside. I dont know what to do with him. In the yard he eats branches off my trees that fall to the ground. He eats alot of grass, and sometimes he vomits. I just dont know what to do. Any suggestions?

Home made dog biscuits!

I decided to make some home-made dog biscuits today. I was off from work and bored so it was something to do, especially since I'm baby sitting Finn right now. I made peanut butter molasses biscuits that I found a recipe for online and Orion LOVES them. My mom and I ate some too and they're not bad, haha! I used low-fat peanut butter and fat free milk so they're not a horrible amount of calories either which is good.… Continue

Hot Dog!

Summer is upon us here in Arizona and summer temperatures, regardless of where you live, can be unmerciful to Corgis and humans alike.

The image above, of my old pal Watson, was made with a FLIR thermocamera, a fairly pricey heat measurement instrument belonging to my now former employer. Measurement of vehicle… Continue

Solid Poop!

After two and a half days of diarrhea and vomiting, we took Casey to the vet this morning. The vet said it didn't feel like Casey had any blockage in her intestines, so sent us home with some antibiotics, diarrhea and stomach medicine.…
