Corgi Countdown: T-Minus 5 Days

I finally received pictures from the breeder of the puppies! I have had my email up constantly on my computers for the past week waiting for this. I was surprised that all the puppies appear to be black-headed tris. There are two in particular that caught my interest and they are both males! I'm just waiting for Joe to get home from work to get his opinion :) Obviously the final decision won't be made until I meet the little buggers in person and get a feel for their personality. Five days seems like so far away, but I started the countdown seven days ago so I'm sure it will come up fast! Not to mention I am SUPER busy up until that point. Luckily for me my work schedule just changed and I will have Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday to spend with Zorro! I already have a vet appointment scheduled for his initial check-up. I'm going to wait until we pick him up to buy his puppy food, I figure keep him on the same puppy food and this switch him to my choice of adult food. That is one thing I will have to do further investigating on. I want to choose the perfect food with the right balance of nutrients to keep him fit and healthy. Today while I was at Walgreens I saw they had Angry Bird dog toys and I couldn't resist buying him one! I love playing Angry Birds and it makes silly noises from the game when you push the squeaker. Don't worry, I realize he will probably rip this toy to shreds eventually. Since he's still a puppy it should last a little while anyway, and when the day comes I will be there to throw the shreds of cotton away. Well I suppose I don't have too much more to say until I get the poop-machine home. Here are the two puppies that caught my eye, do you think the red on the face of the puppy on the left will spread at all? He had the most red out of all the puppies. Thanks!

Comment by Ashley and Zorro on June 8, 2012 at 2:11pm: Everybody on here is so helpful! I believe the father is a black-headed tri as well. It's so cute, in all the pictures the mom is in them trying to get under the people's arms and be in the middle. I am pretty sure in the pictures the puppies are 6 weeks old and I will be picking him up when he is seven weeks. Soon as I get him home I will take pictures and post them!! Joe really likes the markings of the mom and hopes ours looks like that, I've realized it's pretty difficult to predict and am going to pick entirely based on personality! I cannot wait to pick our pup up, thanks for all the support! :)

Comment by Tomi and Story on June 7, 2012 at 11:09pm: They are adorable! My little one will be a red headed tri, you can see she has a lot more red on her face than the boys in the pic (this picture is 9 weeks). These little boys look like they will be black tris like mom (I'm assuming that is mom). What markings does dad have? Omg, you will have SOOOOO much fun! Story has been home for almost 2 weeks now, and we just can't ever imagine being without her now. She has a basket full of various toys but her favorites are towels and rope toys (always supervised!) she now chases a baseball and soccer ball outside. I'm so excited for you! Let us know which little guy you choose :)

Comment by Emily & Scout on June 7, 2012 at 8:19pm: Congratulations! Both of them are adorable! I assume the mom is pictured with them. She looks like an amazing dog just by the way she sits in the picture calmly. As for color, I'm sure someone has more experience.
