10:30 - Went out for a potty break.

10:50 - Sat scratching her nose on the carpet.

11:00 - Her head was an inch wider on all sides

11:01 - Called vet ER, crying, thinking she was going to die.

11:15 - Why do they always have to stick a finger in her butt?

11:30 - A shot and a treat.  Puffy face for 6 more hours, but…

Little Miss Ellie went in for her spay on the 17th.  What a trooper she's been!  She was her usual self from the moment she returned home (the Vet kept her overnight for observation, which is standard practice at their office) and was as playful as always.  I, on the other hand, was a total wreck about it last week. 

I knew she wasn't in pain and all would be well, but I felt absolutely horrible about keeping her confined to her crate nearly all day long.  Why not…

I've started an actual training schedule for Baxter, with a bunch of different exercises we can do to keep things interesting. We will competing for the first time in November and I want to feel more prepared. So I'm going to post about our training sessions here so I can chart Baxter's progress. Last night's drills:

• Weaves - 6 closed poles, with guides (the last guide was missing because I miscounted although the missing guide…

Our adventures this week took us to the top of an old, favorite trail in the Seattle area, Mt Si. A standard conditioning hike for experienced hikers and a challenge for newbies.  We have done this one once before, in the rain, so decided that with a sunny day ahead to brave the crowds and the heat and see the view that everyone raves about.…

From time to time I see if there are any Corgis in shelters in the Houston area, where I live, and I came across this guy and his story broke my heart.  He was born without front paws and his breeder stuck him in a shelter.  I don't know anything else about him other than that, but it just broke my heart and I started crying (still crying).  I don't know how anybody could NOT want to love this Corgi, he has his Corgi smile on even though life has been bad to him.  If only I could adopt…

Evidently Goldy drank the last of the water a few moments ago because as I sat here typing up a handout for school I hear Bear quietly bark.

I ignore it - assuming it's a request for tug of war.

A few moments later - BARK BARK!   I ignore - focusing on my work.

Then, BARK BARK BARK and walks over and headbutts MY LEG!

As I look up, he walks back over to his water bowl and BARK! 

I thought I was a teacher, it…

My big, hairy friend Gromit turned two years old today so I grabbed the camera for his official birthday pictures, or as he likes to call them, "whelpday pix."

My brother and sister-in-law adopted/rescued this little sweetheart that they named Elly this past Friday. It's all kinda crazy how it all happened. It all began when I started the process of adopting my puppy Harrison, my brother and sis in law were interested in getting a puppy as well. So, they began looking for a doggy in shelters and rescues. After several failed…

So, yesterday, my family and I went to our corgi breeder's, Diana's, house to see our future family member. He is already cute enough when she sent me the photo, but when I saw him up close and personal, HE IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. The little puppy fits so well in my hands and he is just so delicate and small, I cannot help myself from wanting to protect it with all my heart. After I put him down, he would sleep and dream while twitching…

This is our 5-day Labor Day trip.  Buck Mt. is 8570', not difficult technically, but one of the Washington Cascades' larger peaks, and fairly remote.  It had been a goal for a long time (30…

So almost as of January 27th it will be the 3 year mark of Owning Ace and the day he came home was joyous to me but it was hell at the same time.. my family was heavily against me having him.. because well they didnt want another dog.. (we had Buffy... my moms dog and scrappy my brothers pittbull) but since then i have been dropping hints that i want Ace to have a sibling or cousin his size to play with.. well in the recent days mom has been asking me questions about our Corgi rescue we have…

I am located in the Dallas Texas area and want to adopt a corgi. I have experience with corgis and have a corgi-friendly house / yard / environment. I've been searching the local rescues since August, but haven't found my little new companion just yet. I recently lost my little companion to liver cancer and a have a big old empty heart just waiting to give a little corgi a whole lot of love.

If anyone knows of someone in the North Texas area who is wanting to re-home their corgi,…

I feel accomplished and VERY pleased with the dogs i live with :)

Both of which HATE baths (ace is weird he looooves water but haaates baths XD)

First I cleaned buffy.. she is harder to do since she cant stand for more then 2 seconds in the tub and the weight of the water doesnt help.. so i have to use my leg to prop up her backside with~

She's a Golden Retriever mix so its not like i can bathe her as easy as i can ace XD

she did sooo good.. I called her from the front of the…
