Hello. Pleasantly, that you like my photos. Weddings photos, it is a photo Annabel son (Bruno), he lives in Sankt Petersburg (Russia). It was him 6 months and his proprietors took him on wedding. In fact he is a family member.

aaw! I am sorry! I was just kidding! ;-) I put my dawgs in headlocks all the time (not really, but they think so!) ;-)

Hi, Ed hurt his foot chasing Gem around our garden back in late September. He had a lot of soft tissue swelling so they put him in a cast for about a week. It healed quickly and so far no residual limping or pain with it.
Glad you are enjoying the group. I am also enjoying seeing and hearing everyone's Holiday plans, pics and traditions!!

Thanks for the Happy Thanksgiving wishes!! I hope you also have a great Thanksgiving and blessed Holiday season!!!!! Just curious... were you able to comment on my profile page??? I have been having a few people who are unable to leave a comment there!!!!

Hey! Thanks for the welcome! I love the picture of Gunner and Gracie in the snow! How awesome. Finn is starting to be interested in water-- I'd love it if she came to like snow, too!

The shock collar - that was the woman in Howell, the EZ Dog Park. I didn't get the feeling she was using those collars in any harmful way, she definitely seemed to be quite knowledgeable. She's VERY heavy into Cesar Millan, claimed to have trained one of his assistants and says she has another facility in CA, right next door to Millan's.

I spoke to the woman at EZ Dog Park, and didn't go - she said nobody ever shows up until after work and I didn't want to drive 25 miles for Ed to play by himself. Instead, we hit the trails at Hines Park - it was a gorgeous day, eh?!

Interesting conversation with this woman though - she said typically, Corgi's don't "do very well" at the dog park because they want to herd the whole pack. She has one who comes daily, but she had to insist it wear a shock collar to be stopped from herding the others (to avoid fights from dogs who don't WANT to be herded). I wonder if other Corgi's have issues like this at dog parks? I can easily imagine Ed wanting to herd the pack, actually.

Hi, Darlene - I found the info on the dog park in Hines Park, it's actually in Westland and it sure sounds good. The reading lead me to yet another park, a private one in Howell and I think I'm going to head out there today (forecast says lots of sun today!). This one is www.ezdogpark.com and I love that the owner is a follower of Cesar Millan's philosophies (so am I). I absolutely KNOW that all Ed needs is one good 'pack' experience to learn that dog-to-dog play is GOOD and fun! I'll report back!

Hi, Darlene! I am so delighted to hear from you and sure do hope to some day get to experience 'multiple Corgi's at play'! I didn't know there was a dog park at Hines - but I don't have much interest in dog parks, for a variety of reasons. One of them being the municipal requirement for vaccination regiment that I don't support =(

I do have a decent yard, and my daughter has a full acre fenced in - but she's in Auburn Hills. Perhaps I might investigate hosting a Corgi-Thingie over there some day? Another plus - my daughter's a photographer.

Thanks, Darlene! It looks like a fun place! :)

Thanks for letting me know you had your pics up!!! they are awesome!!! I love the snow pics even though I hate to think of that coming!! Anyway, Gunner and Gracie are real cuties!!!

Love your photo's!

thank you!

Thanks Darlene! Yup, they are great fun to watch play. I especially like the one where little Cricket is grabbing hold of Kirby's mouth and she looks so tiny next to him. She is fearless!

Hi, Yes we did get together at my house and had a great time. I will probably set something up again soon so will be happy to let you know. I live just outside of Lansing.

Lol, I call mine chicken-sticks... Her legs look like little chicken drumsticks! :)

OK, I'LL GIVE YOU A FEW DAY TO POST SOME PICS!!!
