Need to upload tons of pictures soon :) Puppies are doing well and a lot has happened in the past year! Apollo & Artemis saw us get married, had their first birthdays ANNNNNNNNND now have their first house/real yard!!! They're sooo much happier having a backyard to run around in for hours instead of being cooped in up in that apartment!

Poor puppies look so sad... Apollo is totally out of it and isn't eating/drinking/peeing/pooping. Hopefully he's back to normal after a good night of rest. Still I think Artemis would have been a good momma =/ Poor girl isn't eating/drinking and keeps trying her hardest to pee but just can't get more than a few drops out yet... Gonna be a long night watching my babies.

I dunno that dogs can have that disorder, but he has it.

Apollo is FINALLY feeling better! Apparently switching his food was the trick. He's back on his potty training route and is lasting 4-5 hours in his crate between potty breaks again!! He even looks better already and his coat has improved. Over all he just seems much happier. Thanks again to everyone who gave advice, suggestions, and well-wishes!

So we've spent nearly 700 dollars on the vet so far and we're both near the end of our ropes in terms of knowing what we're supposed to do with our puppy. Apollo just isn't getting any better. We've had to completely give up on potty training and drop out out of puppy classes all together now because of this problem. We took him in for another vet visit today and now the vet thinks instead of a simple bladder infection he has urinary calculi but apparently now instead of the crystals being… Continue

So it's a good thing we had the vet visit scheduled when we did because Apollo (our male) is definitely sick and apparently suffering. (I really don't think it's behavioral because sure he cried a little whenever we had kennel time before but now it is incessantly) The poor thing has cried ALL day/ALL night for the last 24 hours with the small exception that he's okay for the duration of our walks/potty time. When we got back from our trip we noticed the little guy looked incredibly bloated and… Continue

I've gotta leave my babies for a whole week and just realized I wrote 2 pages worth of doggy directions for the sitter =x I'm also afraid that while I'm gone I'm gonna end up calling like once a night to check on them but unlike the overbearing mother, I can't expect my babies to talk back on the phone. It's amazing how many offers you get from friends and family when looking for a puppy (in my case, puppies) sitter but NO ONE is ever willing to watch a cat. Even a giant docile lovable one like… Continue

Why on earth Apollo's breeder thought feeding him and letting him potty all in the same area was a good idea but now we're having a hellish time with crate training. He's gotten better with waiting to poop outside but the moment we put food in the crate he pees all over himself =/

Wow what a day. Apollo joined our little family today after what seemed like an eternity! He's done fairly well given he's only 8 weeks old (as of yesterday). Poor little guy is tiny and misses his family a ton still. He probably could have benefited by staying a few more weeks with his parents/siblings. He practically cried the whole way home. Unlike our other puppy Artemis, I have a hunch Apollo is going to be the more rebellious one out of the two. He's incredibly vocal and playful already.… Continue

Not to boast but either we got the best puppy in the whole world or corgis are an evolved form of dogs! Artemis slept through the whole night without crying once in her kennel :) She's also getting the hang of this potty thing and has learned to climb and descend stairs already. We've been working on sit today and she's definitely making progress on that too!

I knew Corgis were supposed to be intelligent dogs but HOLY COW our puppy has amazed us beyond belief for only knowing us a few short hours! Artemis not only learned her name incredibly quick but she also was walking easily on a leash within the first hour of trying! Artemis also has thoroughly impressed us with how calm she is in her crate. Our cat hates the car far more than she does ^_^ Let's just say we've been blessed and have been so lucky with our animals temperaments thus far. I just… Continue
