They are getting along well!

Another CPWCC Corgi Fun Day 2015 in the books and we had a blast again this year. So much fun to spend time with tons of corgis! So much cuteness it's a bit overwhelming. Here's a picture of our trio in their costume contest entry. Al and Ashton are Corgi Vikings while Pino was a lovely mermaid. They won First Place!! Woot!! If you ever get a chance to take your…

Thanks to Sarah Bradley for suggesting we attend the Georgia Renaissance Festival during "dog weekend" - I think there were about 10-12 Corgis present, some dressed up, some "au naturelle" - everyone had a good time!  Lots of attention, people wanting to take pictures and pet our dogs.  Bogart was wiped out when we got home from all the sights, sounds and attention!  Here are some photos of Bogart, and also his friends Archie (the Knight) and Vicca (the Princess) with Sarah Bradley - their…

The calendar is full of cute Corgis from Georgia - Bogart the Cardigan is featured in May. If we sell out, Corgi Aid and Corgi Pals will each get $1,250 - to help less fortunate Corgis. Please consider buying one for a Corgi loving friend or family member!

Thanks to the efforts of Sarah Bradley for getting this event together, we met at the Canine Ranch in Canton where we had rented the agility field for four hours. We also got to try lure coursing.  40+ Corgis attended, and had the best time together. Bogart "told" me this morning he was ready to do it again!…

I hope this is ok to post here.  We all know the good that Corgi Pals does for the…

My little girl Angie enjoyed herself so much. We came home with bags of treats and toys...Large Bags! She stayed by my side the whole entire time(thank you obedience training!)and she was over all the best companion to have there. She met another corgi named Howie and the two became fast friends. You can check out Hounds on the Hill on facebook and I hope to see more corgis there next year! And to anyone who came, Thank you for supporting canine companions everywhere :)…

Dora, 2 year old Cardigan, Dylan, 2 year old Pembroke and Bogart, the 1 year old (on Monday)…

I am starting to get my life together, there is just one thing left to do, get a steady job and apartment. As soon as I get that cleared, I'm going to finally get my corgi if I can find him. To finally get my life together and hopefully be financially stable will mean I can support a dog in my life. I keep dreaming of corgi puppies so I think this might be my year. Will be…

Someone might find this treatment acceptable. And if you are that type, please don't comment on my post :-) Thanks!

Anyhow, I've been to my storage unit a few times in the last year to hear several dog's yapping on the other side of the fence. I never thought twice about it until I hear it the other day when it was 0 degrees outside. So I decide to look over the fence. And to my amazement, 2 corgis. Both tied up, with their own ruts, perfect radius to tether ratio. Sad to see…

Molly and I went on our first flight together yesterday, and it was amazing! When we got to the airport, I was prepared for the worst, Molly being too big to fly in cabin. I checked in, and paid for Molly's ticket and no one even looked in her carrier. She isn't too large, shes the right size, but shes poofy, so you never know. I arrived 3 hours early, just in case, so we had time to kill. I took her to the pet relief area and she met a few other pups getting ready for flights. Once she was…

I went to the annual Dixon Corgi Faire.I think this is the third time I have gone with Chloe.  I have never seen so many Corgis!  I entered Chloe is the Corgi Bowling contest, 3 plastic cups with treats underneath, the object of the game is to knock over cup and get treats.  She got third place in her group.  We will practice for next year.  I did enjoy talking to other Corgi people.  What was interesting is that the Corgis in grass area all decided to chase other non Corgi breed like a…

Apparently I have too much time on my hands.   :-)…

...because Saber is obsessed with removing any sort of bandage from me. Any one else have that problem?

In other news, Saber seems to really have fetch reliably down, knows sit, lay down, ding the service desk bell to go outside, and stand up and touch my hand. I went to a convention for a weekend and left her in the care of my mother.  Her new thing is to climb into my lap anytime I sit on the ground.  I think that she thinks that I can't leave if she's in my lap.  It's kind…

Okay, I know this isn't exactly an astonishing event but I thought I would make a blog post about it anyway.

I HAVE SUCCEEDED IN MAKING ACE INTERESTED ENOUGH IN A TOY TO PLAY WITH IT ON HIS OWN!

This is really groundbreaking for me, and especially for Ace. Ever since he entered my life, he has NOT played with toys. Sure, he would tug…

It's been a few weeks now that I have worked on Ace's people skills. Every day, I made it a point that at least one stranger would come up to him. He's done terrific progress in some parts, and is going at a snail's pace in others. What I have discerned from this experiment so far:

- Ace loves the ladies. Of all shapes, sizes, ages and species. If a girl comes up to him, he will go sniff her with just momentary hesitation. What a ladies' man...

- Ace is not as…
