Loved this little Corgi in your post!!
Romeo is super cute too....they are lovely...
Lily now is in her crate, enjoying a carrot! nap time =)

Your Welcome!! Thanks so much for the compliment :) Love sables, and love the name Romeo!! Romeo is adorable <3 I just may have to nickname Lance Romeo, hehe...when we brought Lance home, my Aunts came over to see him and called him Lance Romance, lol.

Our dogs look sooo similar! I hope quixote grows up to look as cute as your pooch!

Thanks, Andrea! I haven't been on the computer lately, and didn't even know about it! We have had a busy summer, with many visitors. That photo was taken on a hike with my Californian brother up to a high mountain lake. Scout is very photogenic; certainly more so than me or my husband! LOL!

Romeo is a little beauty. Who was his breeder? Just curious because the breeder of 2 of my corgis, who originally lived in N. CA now is in TN.

Thanks for the info. We told the vet yesterday to remove the teeth if they're still there at the time of the neutering (ouch!). When our cat had surgery to remove a skin cancer they sent her home with the collar. She did great w. the surgery but HATED the collar. We took it off and kept a close eye on her. She didn't need it. We don't plan on using the collar on Rafa unless he needs it.

Hi Andrea, I haven't read the whole discussion, just chimed in my two cents. This is the site I've checked out food: http://www.petfoodratings.net/dogtable.html
Chicken Soup for the Dog Lover's Soul tested very highly and more affordable than the other highly rated foods. I goofed with Kirkland. I should never trust my memory. I thought it was on this list with a 5 star rating. It isn't.
PS We're thinking of neutering Rafa at 6 months. Any thoughts on this?

I've heard good things about Costco's Kirkwood brand kibble, but have never tried it.

I have rafa scheduled to be neutered sept. 3. he'll be almost 6 mo. I figure the smaller he is, the smaller the incision and recovery. they also mentioned pulling teeth. What do you think?

Aww poor baby and poor you! What an ordeal. How old was Romeo when you got him neutered? I don't remember needing the cone when I had my Dylan neutered, but it was so long ago.

When you say small kibble or large kibble are you talking about breed or bite size? Diamond is fine..its not the best but its not the worst. Just because its hard to find doesn't make it the best by no means. Many of feed mills for farm animals carries it. But I would feed medium breed adult food in any size kibble.

It was helpful. It confirmed my suspicion that this is not a particularly stellar kennel. I left a message that was never returned. They don't seem professional and they have a very unusual, to say the least, bill of sale. Definitely not genuinely caring corgi people.

I love your corgi animations!

Thanks! Rafa sure is a handful but a cutie!

Interestingly, I emailed denisechew who signed in to the guest book at Rockstar Corgis as a new owner of one of their puppies. I wrote to see if Rafa and her puppy were part of the same litter and get her impression of the breeders. Her email address was not valid. Something doesn't smell right with Rockstar Corgis.

Rockstar Corgis sold Rafa w/o papers. Apparently Rafa's sire is Cody Front & Center and dam is Sweet Opal Pickles. There's no tele. # listed for them. I will email them and see what info. I can get and pass it on to you. I have to tell you that it was a great comfort to me knowing that you had an interest in "Butters." In the first few days with Lucy, I always had in the back of my mind that if it didn't work out for us, that I at least took this puppy from a bad situation and could give him to you if it didn't work out. Since my friends have met him, there's already a line forming to take him, haha.
But, Lucy and Rafa are starting to seem like forever friends. Fingers crossed!

I don't know if you read the "info" about Rockstar Corgis, but I loved the part that read, and I quote, "After spending many hours on researching the best bloodlines and learning more about showing corgis, we then decided to go ahead and purchase some show quality Corgis."
