I have decided start directing Nibbler's training towards the requirements for therapy dogs. This was something that crossed my mind even before we brought her home. When I saw her picture, I knew she was the one for us, and the breeder told us a few weeks before we picked her up that she had a very laid back personality. And the thought crossed my mind, maybe she could do therapy? It has been something that I talked about with my boyfriend, and something I have considered doing. But it wasn't… Continue

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone

Happy Thanksgiving! !!

May your stuffing be tasty

May your turkey be plump,

May your potatoes and gravy

Have never a lump.

May your yams be delicious

And your pies take the prize,

And may your Thanksgiving dinner

Stay off your thighs!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!…

Updates on Vivi!! (It's a long one!)

Hi everyone! We just recently adopted a black-headed tri Pem from a shelter. It's been a week to be exact, and Vivi, as we named him, has made tons of progress since he first set foot in our house. At first, he was very timid and withdrawn, but still followed us to be in the same room. It's understandable since he had just been neutered that day. He was very sore and stiff for a few days, and hardly wanted to move (except on walks, lol), but he… Continue

Leather corgi gifts

My mom just came back from visiting her sister and friends in Japan and look what she brought back!! I can't believe these are all made out of leather and it's the cutest thing ever. The first one is my favorite and it's hanging in my car. It makes me smile every time I see it.

Sloppiest Drinkers EVER!

I often think after Bear and Goldy get a drink that perhaps a Saint Bernard has snuck into my kitchen.

Both of them stick their whole nose in the bowl, drink and then with a half-full mouth of water pull their heads away from the bowl and dribble water a good foot away from the bowl!

I thought it was just Bear originally, but either all Corgis are sloppy drinkers or Bear taught Goldy his bad habit.

Sincerely,

Steph with Soggy Feet

New Home for us?

My friend is living in a duplex and her roommate just moved out. I would save over $275 a month just by moving in with her. She does have 2 cats who have never lived with a dog before, but Callie loves cats. Her cats do have herpies... does anyone know if feline herpies can spread to dogs? I don't think they do...

Callie would have a little extra room to run around inside, and I'd be moving closer to a lake and a dog park. I guess my biggest concern is getting the cat's used to Callie. We… Continue

Advice for dog to dog food aggression

Hello all,

Our puppies Nellie and Howie are generally good with each other, but NOT when it comes to meal time. Both gobble down food (we recently purchased those big silver balls to put in their dishes and slow them down), and when they finish they begin to growl at each other. This used to happen only when one puppy finished first and went for the other's food. Now it can happen even if both bowls have been picked up. They have no aggression towards us. We pick up their food 1 to 3… Continue

Thoughts...

A thought of regret passes through my mind, retail picks up this time of year, my work makes it so that I'm hardly home, and yet... I love my dog sooooo much, but I hardly have time to entertain him. Mind you I make the time to play with him for a few hours every night, but at the same time, he's got to be in his crate the rest of the time. This is why I got him the big crate, so he could be comfortable in it, but now, I think of it more as a prison, thinking I'll make it up to him later. I… Continue

Another hike..and this time, a coyote! And a piece of corgi art...

Boy, it seems on each of our hikes lately we've encountered another creature! This weekend we did a 5-mile hike at an area called Daley Ranch here in San Diego. It's a huge complex of trails through some pretty oak groves and chaparral.

About 2 miles in, I spotted an animal ahead of us on the trail, just trotting along. The view at this area was a long flat meadow, so we could see… Continue

FART SMELLS AWFUL!

I don't know why but Romeo has been farting alot lately near me. He doesn't make any sounds but HE def FARTED. IT SMELLS AWFUL!! He doesn't even look at me when he did it. He acts like nothing happened, but once in a while he farts and leaves the room. Is Romeo the only dog who acts like this?

Seriously?!

Many of you know that Lyla had to make a trip to the animal hospital last night. I did hear from the daycare/boarding facility owner today and found out that yes, Lyla got fed yesterday... twice! I'm thinking that even just two meals though, they must have fed her A LOT for her to be as big as she was. The owner was very apologetic, and I said I understood how things can happen, and I had forgotten to mention that neither of my dogs get anything other than food I bring (I never said this when I… Continue

Corgi's as service dogs?

Does anyone have information on corgi's as service dogs? Gwenie went to the vet Friday we were told she had to lose 3 lbs. The vet then suggested we make her a service dog for me. I have very bad RA and she helps me. She picks up keys. I hope she learns more. Well any help on this would be nice. Thank you. Oh before I forget I love to see all the pictures of the corgis here. Make me feel good inside! Thank you..Kitty & Gwenie

Agility!

I'm so excited! I've been wanting to get Jack into agility for awhile now. I was going back and forth between that and herding, but have been unable to find a herding instructor. So yesterday I e-mailed a local agility instructor. I had asked my vet for a referral to an agility trainer and was given her name, and she also happened to be our CGC/TDI evaluator.

It turns out she has a class that just started Thursday, so I only missed one. They use an indoor horse arena in the winter… Continue
