Andy's New Forever Home
For those of you who have lost a cherised pet know the anguish, hurt and empty feeling that's left behind. I lost my Daisy on 8-13th of this year and I still cry for her. I only had her for 6 months but it seemed like forever.
On 10-30, my brother, George, received a call from his niece, Robin, up in Santa Barbara; about 2 1/2 hours North of us. She walks her dog on a path near the Marina and has made wonderful pet friends and their humans. She met Natasha who had this beautiful little Corgi named Andy. Natasha told Robin that she found herself in a dilemma. She loved her Andy but found she couldn't keep him anymore so she was looking for a new home for him.
Robin called George and he told me about Andy. At the time I had no idea what Andy looked like so Robin texted us a picture of Andy. OMG I was in love. He is absolutely gorgeous. Now how could I resist. I told George to tell Robin we'd come up on Sunday, Halloween, to pick him up. We packed snacks, plenty of water and put the Pupsters in the car. I think it's important for dogs to meet one another to see how they will get along. We went to the Marina to meet Natasha and Andy. Well you'd think the Pupsters always knew each other, they chased one another, did somersaults and what I like to call the football stance (when they line up with their butts in the air getting ready to tackle). They had a wonderful time. We followed Natasha back to her house where she gave us Andy, all of his belongings and his medical records (very important).
We had to make a couple of pee stops for the Pupsters along the way back home and they continued with chasing and playing. When they arrived home, they took off into the backyard like bullets and played some more (what a dog's life. . .LOL). They finally came in around 7:30 last night, fell asleep and didn't wake till almost 3:00 a.m. this morning, 11-01-10. They were so tired they didn't even want breakfast this morning. That's a temporary state-of-mind cause we all know how much Corgis like to eat. . .LOL
So that's the story of Andy, our new little fur-baby, and how he came to be.
I've had plenty of dogs in my life but never have I come across a dog that has stolen my heart. Corgis are so special that once you've had one, you are truly in love and know in your heart that this is the dog that will fill your world with lots of love and BIG SMILES. Plus they make the best companions. They rely on you for comfort, love, plenty of attention and can't forget that FOOD!!!!!
Remember, Corgis are like potato chips, you can't just have one.
Corgi kisses to all. . . .

Just read your Andy story. Great story. Sounds like you live in the area where I did prior to moving up to Oregon. I was in Santa Maria.

I just read all about Daisy - I am very sorry to hear about your loss. She was able to share some happiness with you and yours, and that's the most important thing. Andy is one lucky fellow, and I hope he will be very happy with you and your kiddos!
