why is Lily proving harder to train on recalls?

Yesterday was a nightmare and left me frustrated and angry.

Lily ran way again. She was walking with my son and her collar broke. She ran like crazy into the neighbors back yard to the camp field . We tried to bring her back for more than 2 hours...she was running from us,chasing the birds , crossing streets...I almost gave up. I had 15 kids helping me, a pocket full of treats, car keys, toys and nothing....even when I stayed alone with her, in that wet field, she stopped , looked…

Your Corgi way to say that loves you !

How is your Corgi's personality?

Is this the Corgi's way to say that loves us, or just a teenager behavior?

Bites =(

Why Lily is giving me small bites every time that I try to catch her?? It hurts!

When kids ask me " Can I pet her? " I have to say " Yes, but she will jump on you, open her mouth and maybe give you a little bite and then will kiss you..."

How do I make her stop?

FURMINATOR

Does anyone knows about this FURMINATOR brush?

We just came back from Petsmart and they were brushing a Golden...never saw so many fur coming out from one dog!!!

If it's that good, I'm thinking about having one for Lily and Jimmy.

Spay

Hey!

Lily is going to be spayed tomorrow....poor baby !

I'm worried about her running around and opening the stitches, she loves to play with Jimmy, our Basset Hound. As you know basset are short but heavy....

I know...her crate will be the best place to keep her in, but will she feel comfortable in there using the "cone" ?Should I keep it in her during the night?

Bunnies poop !!

Lily is eating bunnies poop !!!

I don't know how to handle with this , because she use the grass as her "bathroom" . I've tried to make her use the patio area , cause there I can see the "bunnie's poop" and keep her away from it.

It's the fourth time that she is under medication for diarrhea .Any suggestions?
