I just copied and pasted into an email to all my Corgi rescue contacts as an Urget Plea!

There are dvd's out there, as well, to help your dog get used to having a baby in the house. Hope both dogs find excellent fur-ever homes.

I would like to take her but can't if she can't get along with other Corgis. My 2 wouldn't mind her, but apparently she would not tolerate them. Sad story.

I realize you are all dog people, but I had to say goodbye to my forever cats when my first baby came along. He was very ill, and was diagnosed with severe and multiple allergies at six months, long before many will acknowledge that children can even develop allergies. He was severely ill, and after all these years he is still compromised, and the nurses in the clinic bring in their colleagues to see him, saying "oh, YOU're the one who..." A legend in his own clinic.

My point is, I loved those cats dearly. My forever cat had been with me thru high school, college, beyond, marriage, and my first child. But when it was a choice between a child and a pet, I let them go. I still miss them, 20 some years later. My work at the Humane Society has brought me back in contact with cats, and it's all coming back. So don't judge too harshly. We can't always know what is going on in someone else's home, and especially in someone else's heart.

I sent them an email with contact information for the local corgi rescue, and to contact me if they need any more help placing the dog. So I hope that I hear good news, I also just checked the Larimer County humane society, and there is a female corgi there, she has been there since the 8th. I want to help her too. Anyone in Larimer County Colorado feel free to contact me with ideas for these two girls!

I don't judge these people too harshly. It is hard just having a baby. Add things not working out with the dog and baby and especially people with their first baby, would be completely overwhelmed. Some people don't have the time or money to invest in further training on their dog and further baby proofing.
I think re-homing can be a responsible option. This person has a yard, they could have easily banished their corgi to the backyard for life, and continued living their indoor lives more-or-less without him. At least they're considering the dog's quality of life.

I used to be on a forwarded rescue list for a local rescuer, and she sent around a great e-mail that sort of turned the tables: "Free to good home. Two children. Quiet, well-behaved, love to run and play or snuggle on your lap. We used to have time for them before we got the dogs....."

I really understand that people feel they don't have time for a dog and a baby. But.... think of that before you get the dog.
