Hub and I drove to Minneapolis to attend the state fair (the BEST in the US, in my humble opinion :)). We had a great time eating fried food, watching the raptor show, and seeing all the other cool things there. We made it to the pet center, where there was a variety of dog breeds on display. Sure enough, there were corgis among the 10 breeds represented--an older adult and a 6 mo old puppy. They were real crowd-pleasers, soaking up each and every pet that came their way! Behind them on the wall was a poster that had two lists: 1 stating why corgis might be the right dog for you, and 2, why that may not be for you.

Now, I have no problem recognizing the typical traits of the breed, good and bad, but this poster seemed to miss most of them because it basically only informed you that corgis shed-a lot. True enough, but there was no mention of what great companions they are, how smart and eager to please they can be, and how active and athletic they are, despite their short legs. Oh well, it was still great to see them there! Cutest faces I saw all day (although the bunnies and cows came in a close second!).
