This is a great story. And after reading the comments, I guess it is a common corgi behavior. Mine are the same way, if the even think for a second you are awake they come in for a full attack. Licking and jumping with such great excitment. But what a wonderful way to be greeted! Nothing better to make me smile then to see those big brown eyes!

I love this story! Gunner likes to place a well positioned pounce on my husband- right on the bladder! Never fails to wake him up. He is much nicer to me, cuddles up next to me and rests his nose by my ear and nuzzles. Gracie, she is the talker, cute little noises and then when she sees me stir let the licking begin!

Miranda did that when she was younger and I had a shorter bed. Morgan will jump on the bed, but he has learned that he is allowed to cuddle if he jumps on the end we are not sleeping on. If he jumps on one of us he gets scolded and put on the floor. They are friggin smart and fast. Especially when they are plotting against you.

I've never had the pleasure of being startled from sleep by a Corgi as mine doesn't want to sleep in the bed (we've tried putting him up there before) and he isn't able to jump up onto the bed by himself so he will just sit quietly and wait.

That is so funny, I can just see the wheels turning as they plan the attack!
What would we ever do with out them...
I get up before my husband, so Corie stays in bed with him. When she is ready to get up, she stands on his chest and gives him kisses :-)

Mine just need to see me roll over in the am and it's time to attack...I usually cover my face with the sheet while they wait patiently to find a spot I didn't cover! Their licking begins! I can't imagine what I'd do without them!

that's reeeally funny, such personality!
Pooka usually starts out sleeping in our bed, then when its actually time to sleep, I put her on her own bed on the floor, by morning, she is back in our bed making cute noises. Once she sees husband is awake then she is lickin all over his face and ears (she will only lick my mouth) If I look jealous, she will give me some kisses, but she likes how daddy flinches away =)

It is amazing how exciting our everyday activities are to our corgis! Cute story.
