Have a wonderful and safe Independence Day

Another great time at the Florida Corgi Picnic. Lexi's first time as she did great.

Poor Lexi broke her toe! She was just running in the yard and suddenly was limping. I am supposed to keep her from running around for 2 weeks to a month. Not going to be easy. Watson can't understand why his playmate can't play and Lexi doesn't get it either. Going to be a long couple…

Watson is so very happy to have a playmate! Lexi is from Wendtworth corgis in Ohio and I have always loved her corgis. It was pure luck that she had a puppy for me right now. I know some people wait a long time after losing their dog but I find getting a puppy is the very best way to move on . So far she is fitting in well and Watson loves her. She is very smart and catches…

Had to say goodbye to my sweet Izzy today. She became very ill with liver failure. I am crushed.

Watson turned two on Sunday. He is still very much a puppy. Every day is a party to him, he is just looking to have a good time. Training is going slowly because he gets distracted easily but he is very funny. So loving my goofy boy and looking forward to our year…

Hope everyone had a safe and happy New Years eve and that your 2016 is fabulous! Thanks for being my first and favorite corgi forum.

We had a great time at the corgi picnic. It was so much fun watching over 200 corgis running, playing and barking all over the place! Watson had a great time socializing and so did i. Reconnected with Laurie, Roger and Chepstow there and met Judy Lundberg all…

Izzy is 8 years old today. She has been an incredibly sweet and easy girl . Even as a puppy she was calm and quiet. She seems to have forgiven us for bringing Watson the rambunctious corgi into our lives. The  world revolves  around her and she loves people much more than dogs. She figured out early on that if she looks very pitiful that people will pet…

We are having a much better year this Fall. Happy Fall my corgi friends! I am still in remission and starting to feel like my old self. Watson is doing great in classes, we just have to figure out how to transfer it into the real world. He still just becomes a wiggly, licky, jumper when greeting people. He learns very fast and loves to play fetch. We are enjoying our walks in…

Watson is one and a half years old and still a joy to live with. He loves to play fetch and aggravate Izzy who is way too cool to play games with him. I am in full remission from cancer and am hoping that it lasts a long time. It is great to be free of chemo and start getting hair and energy back. Watson is getting more training as a result and more exsercise as well. It's…

I can't believe it has been a year since we added Watson to our family. He has been a joy to live with. He is the happiest dog imaginable and very loving. As I continue with chemotherapy he is always good for a laugh or cuddle. I am hoping the doctors will announce soon that I am in remission. At that point I hope to have the energy to continue with his training. The only…

We received good news recently, my daughter and her family are moving back to Michigan from Denver.   I am thrilled that they ( including 3 grandsons) will back in our town! While they wait for their movers to get here they are staying with us. The bonus is their dog , Belle, is willing to play with Watson and so are my grandsons. He is so very happy since Izzy continues to…

Watson continues to be the most happy go lucky dog I have ever seen. He is very fun and loves everybody. Izzy still plays very little with him but we try to make up for it. He loves fetch and find it.

I recovered very quickly from my surgery and have restarted chemo. After 9 weeks the hope is that I will be in remission. So I'm looking forward to a great summer.…

Happy First Birthday Watson! He has been the happiest dog ever. All things are fun and interested him. We have had a tough year with my cancer diagnosis but the joy, love and laughs he provides has helped us focus on the important things in life. He wasn't the dog I started looking for. Originally I was waiting for a pup from a breeder that I had developed a good relationship…

Watson is 11 months  now and such a joy! Unfortunately my Christmas tree has been quite a novelty for him. His fence we used when he was younger has come in handy. In spite of my battle with cancer I have continued with his training. A little slower than planned but he is a very happy go lucky guy so things are going well. He still makes us laugh regularly and is very…

So Watson is 6 months and still is lots of fun! He is a little too enthusiastic when greeting people but we are working on it. He is much better about seeing other dogs at least he doesn't always bark now. He had his first professional nail dremeling today and cried like a baby while gulping down treats.( I am a big chicken and have just been trimming the nails with clippers while showing him the dremel). He loves to lick everybody and doesn't have an aggressive bone in his body. It appears…

Watson is now 5 months old. He has been so much fun! He is smart, silly, loving and at times wild. He loves Izzy and they play often. It is great to see her having so much fun. He passed Puppy Class with flying colors but we are still working on stopping him from barking at other dogs and overly enthusiastically greeting people. I think he is still a little frightened of strange dogs and after he matures may be better at that. We are getting ready for a month long trip with our RV so I think…

Well miracles do happen! I thought I knew dogs but Izzy has surprised me. She plays regularly with Watson. It took a while for him to wear her down but he did and it is so cute to have two playing dogs again. Watson is a great puppy, very goofy and cuddly. He does well in puppy class but is learning (slowly) not to be such a big…
