The Heat Factor

I know some people on here are having the same issue... they share their pups with significant others and somehow end up doing most of the work despite discussions... explanations... serious sit downs.. and going on strike.



I'm in the same boat mostly. He tries to keep up to date on everything... put his input in.. but doesn't research everything before he tries it... and the frustration is mostly he needs to spend time with them. He gets upset when they listen to me more then him… Continue

Corgi Hair, Everywhere

I sweep the main floor of our house daily. Casey and I have a ritual, I take out the broom and she positions herself directly behind my sweeping activities, to supervise of course.

As I sweep, she walks behind me, dropping hair on the floor with each step. I'll complete a full circle around the house, and upon walking back around to where I…

"The Corgi has Landed"

After a lot of research and networking I found a great dog. Cindy Sera of Summithill Corgis was the breeder.



I am sure I will love this one as much as my previous one. In many ways the acquisition of the new Corgi brought up a lot of emotion and longing for my best friend Zoe. Driving home with the new pup I had tears of happiness and sadness. What a great dog she was. Incredible what an…

Spoiled Rotten Corgi's no such thing!

Now I am not sure if Gwenie is spoiled rotten. She has her own chaise, e-mail account, twitter page, basket for her toys, too many toys to count, pink car crate, goes everywhere with us (trips), is allowed on any piece of furniture in our home, sleeps with us center of bed, has travel sets of bowls and beds, rain coat, jogging jacket ,tutu, t-shirts, different collars and we are buying a new/used sports car but it has to have a special spot for her. She helps with things as well around here… Continue

Those crazy little herding minds....

Very hot day today (near 90), so rather than taking the dogs on a long walk, we decided it would be nice to stroll our way over to the Adirondack chairs in the shade near the public pool.



We have walked by this pool several times a week the entire time we've had the dogs; as far as I can tell, the dogs don't really acknowledge that the pool exists, and why should they? Of note, though, is the fact that we got Madison late last August, right before the pool shut down for the… Continue

Big Boy Ears!

Both of Søren's ears are up! It only took until he was 16 weeks old! His left ear has been up for a month, but his right ear - which I swear is bigger - had stayed completely floppy until the past few days. And, today it's up. I'm so glad I didn't have to tape it, because I knew he would hate it.

Sage's 1st obedience class!

Sage did extremely well! She's my little golden girl. Sage not only did everything well but on the way out someone asked me if she and the Boxer were friends and I had to say..."no, they had never met before tonight!" Sage stayed focused even with a Jack Russel rescue next to us that was out of control! She did try to chew on her new leather leash though! Her 1st recall was great also! Even more exciting is the prospect of possible herding! The trainer has a Border Collie and herds with her… Continue

Harness Struggles

Recently we have begun training Milo to walk on a harness rather than his collar. He hates the harness and it really freaks him out. We tried to get him used to it a few months ago as well, but it has not been going well. Last time we've tried leaving it on him so that he can get used to it, but he will not move an inch and just lays on the floor looking miserable. Milo loves to go outside so we've been trying to associate it with going out, but still he hates it and freaks out when it's on… Continue

Three legged kitty needs a name!

My new foster kitten will be a two month old girl that just had her leg amputated. I'll be picking her up on Friday and I don't have many details yet but she'll need a name when she gets here. I haven't had a special needs kitty in a while, just kittens that need to get old enough to be neutered, so I'm excited. I think she is a tabby and any name suggestions would be appreciated :)

Separation Anxiety

I have been on vacation for five days without my fur baby! I miss him so much! He is at home with my boyfriend, who says he misses me terribly. Apparently Wrigley has been super clingy and mopey and keeps watching the door, waiting for me. I feel so bad! I am coming home on Sunday night, but it feels like an eternity! In the meantime, I have been video chatting with my boyfriend over Skype and Wrigley freaks out when he sees me! I feel like I am going to get tackled when I was in the door and I… Continue

The Fashion Police



Let me tell you a story about my fashion-conscience dog.

My Dad was going to a BBQ/church retreat this past Sunday and was waiting around in his church clothes for his ride to arrive. He chose to go a little more casual this weekend and wore a Hawaiin shirt, nice khaki pants, dress shoes, and dress socks. When his ride showed up, everyone was in…

Buddy ate something bad!

Hey Everyone,



I came home from work today to discover that Buddy got into our half bathroom and chewed up one of the plastic caps on the toilet, and ate part of the ceramic piece that was underneath it. Just for clarification, it was the cap that covers the screw that holds the toilet in place. He didn't eat the plastic cap, just chewed on it. It seems the main course was part of the ceramic piece. Upon further inspection of the other untouched cap, I noticed that the ceramic piece is… Continue
