I saw on your website that Max retired and Nia moved away! ;o( Oh my gosh Gus is perfect! Keep me posted on your breeding program. My sister is going to want a black headed tri but not right away.

Hi Deb!
Thanks for your compliment about LaVerne. She is incredibly smart and so is Shirley. I have been keeping them both very busy. LaVerne is in Rally Obedience and doing very so well. I swear she can read the signs better than I can....lol. Shirley is in Agility and just graduated into the Agiltiy 2 class. So much fun. She is a bundle of energy. I dont let her jump more than 8 inches. Im not sure when its safe for her to jump higher. Ive been looking at your puppies and wishing I could get another! They are so cute! I've been spreading the word. Everyone loves my dogs and asks where they came from so I always give them your web address.
When you get a chance check out the photos of Shirley I posted on this site. She is adorable. She and LaVerne have really been good for each other. I havent had any problems but I am with them all day every day. Poor things dont have a chance to get into mischief...lol.
Well its "Dog Days" in Leavenworth today so I think I will pack up the dogs and go check it out. Thanks for the note. It was great hearing from you. Take care and enjoy your weekend!

whoops, bottom right of the page. LOL. actually the photo accompanied my text.

Just wanted to say hi because I'm now a big fan of yours, thanks to LaVerne and Shirley, two of the most beautiful tris. I love looking at your corgis. In fact you can see Lucy pictured on this page. She's pictured next to Corgi Anonynous: MyCorgi.com under the heading Badge, toward the bottom left of the page. She's from Tim Mathiesen, Nebriowa Corgis in Oakland. Check out our photos. I wouldn't be surprised if a heart bark x puppy is in our future!

Penny will be 8 months old August 6th. She is is from a breeder in Couer d'Alene Idaho. She weighs 20 lbs. and stands 10" at the withers so isn't quite full grown. She is a rambunctious adolescent pup. She does get along with other dog; the woman who my dad bought her from had two other dogs and she plays well with my two Corgis. We've never actually witnessed her with children but, again, the woman who had her temporarly had children and she didn't mention any concern about that. She Love's her cat. One thing that I will mention right up front is that she has what is referred to as juvenile cataracts in her right eye. This condition doesn't affect her vision and from what we read, shouldn't ever. I have pictures but can't for the life of me figure out how to attach them to a message through this site. If you have a regular email I can send them to that address if you'd like.
He would like to recover what he paid for her-$200. She was spayed in May and is current will all of her vaccinations.
Penny is a really sweet pup that, just because she is a puppy, it too much for my 80 year old dad. She would love to find a "forever home" with folk who can train and play with her as she needs.
I will be away from my computer after 9:00 today (Friday) but can be reached by phone at 208-267-3240

Gosh you sure have some nice photos, esp. with the puppies & children.
I think Gwynnie & Al deserve a ranch... but maybe the climate here on the west side is more like Wales... each has had a chance to ski up Mt. Catherine at Snoqualmie Pass this spring.

I'm sure she is! I know she'll find a loving family that will adore her. Take good care. Evelyn

Hi Deb,

Thanks so much for the info on your fluffy. Yes, it's too bad you're so far away. I know that some folks choose a corgi from a distance and have it shipped to them, but I feel like I need to meet the pup and see if there is chemistry. That said, I do appreciate you taking the time to reach out.

Best regards,

Evelyn

One more thing please: can you remember what time of year the snake incident was?
I know zilch about the central Washington environment, and even less about how my dogs would react to a snake.
Always a bit nervous in unfamiliar surroundings.

Hi Debbie!
I thoroughly enjoyed visiting your home today. What a lovely piece of heaven. Your dogs greeted me with gusto.....lol......I loved it. All the happy faces and smiles!. They are all so beautiful. I couldnt decide which one was my favorite. I kept changing my mind all the way home.....lol. What a welcoming committee!
My husband saw Lorena online and it was love at first sight. He told me " as long as you are over there you should go see her" I was shocked....lol. I had been poking my nose around looking at red and white pups but come to find out he has his heart set on another tri and we do want another girl. LaVerne is so friendly and mellow. She loves everyone and everything.......well except birds seem to annoy her. I think she wishes she could fly too. She recently graduated from puppy kindergarten and got along great with all the other dogs.
Please tell your husband thanks again for letting me interrupt his morning. Just give me a jingle when you find something out.
Thanks again for everything. Your puppies are so cute!!

Thanks for the snake info. So yes, it can happen? They were certain it was bitten by a venomous snake? I have seen a harmless snake at Vantage, a garter-type snake that mimics a rattler, diamondback color/pattern and all.
Snakes sometimes give warning bites, not injecting venom ("Bitten by a fer-de-lance", Stephen J. Gould). A Utah friend's DAUGHTER was once bitten on the heel by a rattler -- with no consequence but anxiety. I fear an envenomed bite would kill a small dog quickly.

Hi Debbie!
Greetings from Wenatchee. I was just looking at your pups and Im hopelessly in love with Lorena...lol...what a cutie! Then I was looking at Nia's pedigree and discovered that my pup and Nia are related. LaVernes dad is Tie goes to Sammy Sosa! No wonder Im in love with your pups...they are related! Did Nia come from Mari in Ellensburg? She told me where Tie went so I hunted him down and found my LaVerne. She is the most incredible creature.

Beautiful dogs. A full litter of tris!
Just noticed your page. I've driven past you 3x this winter, taking Al & Gwynn out to Ancient Lakes, Gingko SP & the Vantage climbing area at Frenchman's Coulee (to escape Seattle winter). Just there last weekend to see the desert in bloom 4/20/9.
Had I known you had puppies so close, I'd have been tempted to "invite" myself over to squeeze some fur. I have to be heavily sedated to visit puppies.
Al & Gwynn came from Carrie Hale and Joyce Gilpin (she's a horse person too) on the west side.
Do you worry about snakes/scorpions on the east side? I'm usually over there when it's too cold for them, but I've seen timber rattlers in lower Icicle Canyon, as early as June.

Your puppies are so sweet...Id take one if you wernt so far away,,,,~tina~ and Cooper

Thanks, Deb. Looking forward to hearing cowboy/girl/corgi tales from my "forever home." Melissa and the Skeezer

Hi Debbie, looking forward to meeting you tomorrow. Sorry I haven't logged on here for a long while.

You'll have a great time!

Debbie, Thanks for taking a look. Happy Valentines Day.

Thanks Debbie! I'm a huge Larry McMurtry fan, I had a German Shepard named Woodrow Call until he passed away a year ago. I didn't get to name Bella, or her name would have been Maggie, she did have one litter before coming to live with me a has a Corgi-? mix son named Newt. We've always wanted to visit Washington, have family in Idaho so maybe on our next trip we'll make it! Your dogs and family are beautiful!
