Not eating?

As you all know, we just got Vikki. I put food out last night for her, figuring she wouldn't eat since it's a new house, etc.

She maybe ate 2 little nuggets of food. This morning, she maybe ate 2 as well. I'm a little worried and I don't want her to starve! She's playing and snuggling, just fine. Just.. not eating..

I know it's normal since it is a big change, but how long is to long of not eating?

Ms. Vikki is home!

Good Evening All!!



I'm new here to the board and I thought I'd say hello! I joined initially hoping to find a Corgi and adopt one into our home. Well, I am proud to annouce, we found one. And she seems like such an angel!! She is 2 years old and is a tri-colored Corgi. I am in LOVE with her already and she's only been home for 2 hours! I also have 2 cats that are my babies and I was very worried about, but so far so good! No growling, hissing or fighting.



She is just so…

Story is home!

We drove from NM to CO over the weekend to pick up our tri-colored, 5 pound bundle of puppy cuteness!  I am so in love with this little girl!  She slept during most of the 6 hour drive home, she slept perfectly in her crate last night with 2 potty breaks and no crying, and she has made herself perfectly at home.  She has already shown us she is a proficient frapper and loves to swim in her water dish!

Memories

Some memories make us laugh, and some memories make us cry. Either way, they remind us of something we loved. When the irises began to bloom around Stinky Wink's grave last month, floods of memories washed over me. I still cannot take a shower without seeing him sitting at the bathroom door, waiting for me to throw a toy down the hall.  I hear him when my wife would come home,…

My little introduction

I want to start off by saying what a wonderful wealth of information this little site is! My boyfriend and I will be getting our first dog ever this July! She'll be a little 10-week old Pembroke red and white girl. We are beyond excited.

I've already been pouring over as much information as possible, hoping to train our puppy into a sweet polite little lady. I've grown up with misbehaving, yappy miniature schnauzers my whole life... so I'm looking forward to doing things right…

Hot Days of Summer

Here it is only the end of May and we are in the hot days of summer--at least here in Central Illinois. And I'm not the only one that thinks that; two baby Corgis agree! It's amazing that when the weather is moderate, it is almost impossible to get the boys to come inside. With this blazing hot weather, it's difficult to get them to go OUT. To further complicate things, Taffy has fallen victim to what I call OBS (Obstinate Bowel Syndrome)! There are just TOO many things to do outside that…

Memorial Progress

I feel guilty at times at how normal life seems now, even though it's only been about two months since Murphy passed away. He was my best friend and my heart dog, and although he's gone, I truly feel that because I loved him so FULLY when he was here, and because he knew how strong my love was for him, that he will always be with me, watching over me, and snuggling up to my heart when times get tough.

Maya has been growing up a lot in the last couple months. We've left her out…

My little boy is growing up

Today is Camden's first birthday, and I can definitely say that even with his quirks (he ate one of my textbooks), he is the best decision I have ever made. He's such a sweet little boy.

So, we're off for some play time at the park, and he's gonna get some new tennis balls and a special dinner tonight. Bye!

Earning His Keep

My dear little Brodie meant it when he showed up saying he would work for food. He has definitely been earning his keep lately around here. He has been flushing out the armadillos at dawn and dusk lately quite regularly. Yesterday, however, he had a banner day! We were out walking late in the evening, just before dusk, when he spotted a rattlesnake in our yard! Bless his little heart, he knew it was not just an average every day snake, because he treated it quite different than he does most…

air horn

 good idea,, i am wondering if it will work to stop Remy from wanting to take chase to cats,, everything goes out the window, when the next door dog takes off after a cat, most of the time he is on his leash ,, but when we are playing fetch that is when it happens ,,, going to remember this when i go to the store

teething

Bailie is now just a little over four months old now and has starting showing signs of what I believe is cutting her adult teeth, so I have some questions. What are the signs of seething, how old was your corgi when they cut their adult teeth, and what are some things you did to relieve the pain? Thanks very much!

How Fast the Days Go!

I apologize that I have not posted more often. Two little guys can keep an old man running! We're finally sleeping all night. We were getting up about 1 a.m. and 3 a.m. and 5 a.m. Now we're getting up about 6-6:30 a.m. At first they were getting used to their new home. Then we went to the vet and they got worm medicine, which contributed to the frequent cries to get out of the crate in the middle of the night. But they didn't mess their beds. Unbelievable!

It's amazing to see their…

Potty Problem!

Hi, it's been 2 months since I got Cola and I've been having problems with his potty training. He usually goes to bathroom 5 times a day and I've been using potty pads since I go to college during the day and have to keep him in his pen half of the day. The problem is he's been peeing on the potty pads most of the times but he also doesn't pee on it once or twice everyday. This is kind of pissing me off because a few weeks earlier there had not been as many accidents as it has been recently.…

9 months

Lucy turned 9 months old yesterday! I can't believe how grown up she's getting. She really is turning into quite the lady. She's still wild and crazy, but not as much as when she was a little puppy. She is so smart. Last week she learned "wave bye-bye" which is the cutest thing ever! She's an absolute delight and I can't wait to see what the future brings with her in my life.…
