Just an update...

Haven't posted in some time, so I figured I'ld give everyone a quick update. Luna (aka Miss Tunes) has been doing very well. The last few weeks shes gotten to spend a lot of time with her big brother Buddy due to me moving. Which has actually worked out really well. Buddy put on a few to many pounds over summer (he's very furry and doesn't do well in the heat) so all the exercise an almost 11 month old puppy can give him has done wonders for his weight. Although, I don't know how much he… Continue

Cobi got his new wheels today!

Yay, Cobi finally got his new wheels today. He really seemed to take to them quite well with the help of treats and his ball. It was so awesome to see him be able to walk & even run around on his own. He was able to chase his ball and take a short walk in the neighborhood. He even showed off his new wheels to a couple of our neighbor friends. We just kept him in it a short time as he tired fairly quickly since he hasn't been able to walk for about a month and a half now, so we need to build… Continue

Dudley attends the annual Thanksgiving Agility Trial

This year Dudley participated! We've been having some training issues lately plus my husband was in the hospital after the last trial so our training plan got scrapped. Because of all this I didn't get Dudley weaving by the time the trial rolled around, so I didn't plan on running him. The issue we've been working on is Dudley running out of the ring during a run. If Dudley sees what he considers an exit, he takes it. I discussed it with my instructor and we decided that it would be best not to… Continue

We got her home!

Well, it has been an extremely long two days. We picked our baby up from the cargo shipping facility (i.e. airport) Friday night. She was scared, covered in poo, and starving, but she made it okay. We got her home, bathed her, fed her, and played with her. Yesterday was her first full day with us, and she's clearly bonded with us. She alternatively sleeps hard and plays hard. Also, she definitely will tinkle on the floor the moment you aren't looking, so we have to watch her like a hawk.… Continue

First Snow For Molly

Tonight it started snowing here in central New Jersey (I'm used to snow starting in October back home in Ohio so this was NOTHING) and my Molly, who is 10 months old, finally got to see her first snow. It was really slippery on the grass, so she was sliding everywhere...since the pine cones that she usually plays with were covered in the snow, she just started running around like a mad woman and chasing the snow flakes...one of the cutest things I've ever seen! She then proceeded to start… Continue

Slow Leak

I have an 11 week old Cardi boy. We got him at 8 weeks and he has grown so much in that short time. The only thing that hasn't changed at all are his potty habits. He has never pooped inside but he pees every chance he gets. It is not always a full on pee, but often just dribbles that occure while he's walking, while he's sitting or even while he's laying down (which results in a yellow belly we just can't seem to get clean). He knows to go potty outside because as soon as we set him down… Continue

Bye Bye Bindi!!

Newborn Bindi

Well, we delivered our littlest puppy to her new owner, a nice young man in Berkeley tonight. He seemed really happy to have her and had done lots of Corgi research, asked all the right questions, was well prepared and excited to jump into the satisfying world of Corgi Ownership. I certainly am missing her goofy little face! The house is emptier without her trembling little presence. But we still have 3 puppies left,… Continue

Max VS The Cat

This hasn't been a good week for Max. We had the cactus day. The Mom's mad cuz I peed on the floor (again) days. Today we had the cats. Max was at the bottom of the stairs the cats at the top. They didn't want Max to come up. They hissed,growled and swated. Max didn't know what to think of the whole thing. They have never ganged up on him before. It took him about 30 minutes to get up stairs.

All My Corgis, Part 2: Sherry

My puppy's breeder keeps adding updated photos to her website, and now my little darling can be seen chowing down on a tiny stuffed cow toy. Awwwwwww! The herding instinct already in evidence!

So -- on with the tale, not to be confused with a tail, which, of course, Pembroke Welsh corgis don't have. Our second corgi was Merry Sherry, and truly, she was a great dog.

Sherry was an outdoor dog except for when she had puppies or when she was recovering from an injury. Yep. We… Continue

The mysterious occurrence which happened to Charlie last night.

Last night, as usual, I put Charlie to his crate, gave him his "sleeping pill" - a kong filled with treats, and wished him "Good night" :). Then I went upstairs to our bedroom.

This morning, exactly as usual, I went down to the kitchen to feed the cat. I always feed the cat first, because she cannot wait. The lights were still off in our living room, but I registered with the corner of my eye that Charlie was, as always in the mornings, in his crate, in his usual "good schoolboy"… Continue

Miles now has a real birthday

Paul went back to Texas over Thanksgiving. Unfortunately I had to stay behind for school but Miles and I had a wonderful time just the two of us. While Paul was back there his mother found all of Miles' breeder papers and we finally know his official birthday. Miles was born on April 30, 2004. His mothers name is Brychan of Sugarhill and his father's name is Dutton's brewster. It's really nice to finally know all of his background and be able to give him an offical birthday with a little… Continue

hard headed ham!

So Turkey Day I am working in the kitchen, as always, and my boy Bucky is right there. He is always right there and usually asleep, just waiting for the magic food drop that has happened in his life. He knows that eventually some tidbit will jump from the counter and be snatched before I can get it. The knife slipped......sweet heavens, it just slipped. It hit him straight on top of his head! I am a retired chef and have some pretty big momba jomba knives. He never made a sound...just started… Continue

The back story, Pt. 1: Daisy

First of all, I am lovin' this site. I had no idea! I should've been here ages ago, but I have been between corgis. This MyCorgi thing rocks! Who's the genius behind it? Kudos, you!

Anyhoo, while I'm passing the time until our puppy is ready to come home, I thought I would pen my corgi history. It all started in 1968. I think. I'm not sure, because I wasn't cognizant at the time.

We lived in Social Circle, Georgia, and my parents were looking for a dog. Our last dog… Continue
