I have always had a saying, even when the kids would get messy, wait, they still do; "everything comes out in the wash". My hands are raw from bleach and Fantastic. Take care.

I like the Eddie Munster comparison! I've started using piddle pads on the floor and Roscoe does use it most of the time, even if he goes on the edge and I still have to wipe up a little. They are "scented" to attract the dog to pee there.
Why didn't I try these a year ago? Even if he uses them once in a while it will be less mess, but expensive. Oh well. Take care.

Hi Kristen,
Thank you for sharing your story about Lizzie, Basil and the new pups. It's such a big decision (getting another Corgi puppy), but it's good to know it can work! Cubbie seems pretty happy, but I can only imagine how cool it would be to have a puppy corgi in the house! I'll keep you posted. -Thanks!

Kristen. Brodie is such a little peanut! Here's a picture of little Roscoe. You're right about the cartoonish characteristics. They're like little clowns aren't they. Thanks.

once Tucker's hair comes back it will be less noticeable. He does whine once in a while so I guess it must be pain because he normally wasn't a whiney dog.

I was not kidding about the term HOUSE of Cats. She has loads of them.

THAT might be very interesting to say the least.

We shall see. I will post over the weekend when we walk up the street about what we find.

What beautiful dogs you have! Great pictures. They're wonderful animals, I'm tempted to get another one. I'm just not sure how Cub would behave with a puppy. How did Lizzie act with the addition of the new dog?

I think I am going to get the cookie cutter and the Corgi cards on Friday.

The lady who does the cat rescue is just up the street, she said if things did not work out, just bring the kitty back. I don't want to have to bring a kitty back, though. She is very helpful and my vet is very mucn a cat oriented person, so I thought I would ring her for advice as well. The other option is to just keep them apart for the time being-should said kitty candidate not be dog tolerant.

She looks so petite. Peanut seems like a perfect name. 16 lbs is so tiny. We had a dusting of snow last night. Cold and windy. Four inches would make the dogs very happy!

her name is peanut and she is a year and half, is a only 16lbs, the weather we got about 4in of snow last night

Sounds like a good transition for Tanner. We have an elderly Black lab/Golden cross that is 14. She too is a bit picky and curmudgeony in her old age. She has her moments when she will play, but they are getting fewer and fewer. there are times when I think she would be happier at Craig's dads, where it is quiet and she would be lavished with attention. He loves her so much.

He's brand new to us :-) My first Corgi, my boyfriend's second... His name is Sam and he's 12 weeks old. He's quite hard-headed and so far has been difficult to house train, but he's getting there slowly :-) He loves playing with our cat - they chase each other through the house continuously! You're Corgi's are adorable! :-)

He is always ready for a load of laundry! One of these days I'll scan some photos of him and add some video. I tried to get some before his amputation and now I need to get the after. His hair is coming back slowly. They really shave a lot off.

Hi Kristen, thanks for all the doggie diaper/pads info. Went to local pet shop yesterday. Owner had a dog with similar problem, never housetrained. It was nice to talk with someone who goes thru the same thing. After talking with her I think it might be easier to just keep mopping up after all the puddles. At least Roscoe doesn't get so stinky! Only when he's gone during the night in his crate, then I give him a quick bath. He doesn't have loose stools, thank goodness! His poop is so much easier to clean up. Oh well, someone else probably would not put up with this. I've had people tell me I might consider putting him "down". No way. He doesn't seizure, but because of the steroids, he gets a little aggressive, otherwise he's adorable. His antics are amusing. I wonder if all corgi's are like that? I'd love another one, maybe a female, but don't think I can convince my husband of that right now. He does need someone to play with. Our Akita isn't really interested in him. She's so lay back and no fun for him! Well, thanks again. I enjoy chatting with you. Take care. Penny

Kristen - Brynn did have snow all over her nose ! Last weekend it was sand .This weekend it will be rainy and cold so we shall see how much she plays on the beach .We hope to catch a whale swimming bye , it's that time of year .

Yes, it has warmed up out of the negative temps. Now it's in the 20's - low 30's. The wind has been around quite a bit lately though. That really brings the temps back down. Max doesn't care for the wind, too many strange noises. He's only about 15 lbs right now so that wind pushes him around a little, he can't quite figure out what's happening.

Hey Kristen - We did make it to the mountain on Sunday :) It was rainy so we went to the Gorge and saw waterfalls with Brynn on Saturday . She had a blast playing in the snow .
Cold here today , what happened to the warm weather? Guess your having the same thing ?
I put up a few new pics of the Mountain , and next week were going to watch storms at the coast ! YAY !
Hope your all doing well :)

Hi, ya we still have the tunnels although some have caved in from max running around on top of them. The snow is kind of hard and crusty now so it's a little hard for him to walk on.

Hi Kristen. Thanks for the welcome. We've thought about trying diapers for Roscoe, but think maybe the smell will get trapped in his fur? It is worth a try though. Once the weather eases up, he'll be out in his yard most of the day. I know we are giving him a good life, but feel bad sometimes. The Prednisone he takes also makes him "anxious" so he runs laps around the kitchen and dining room area,sometimes nonstop! He's not allowed in the living or bedrooms unless he's on someone's lap or sofa. Never know when he's going to pee, which is mostly every 5 minutes it seems. I'll get some pictures of him and Penny, mammakita on site as soon as my daughter can help me with that. Like I said, I'm an amateur! Well, thanks again.
