<--- Ashton says: Happy Birthday!!!

May all your birthday wishes come true! <3

I still think Rafa is a fine boy's name, yes I am a fan of Rafa (and Fed) so thanks for the FYI's . . . I'm very intemittant on everything since I'm working 50 plus hours a week. My Ziggy is getting better all the time but a handful. Lots of stuff to clean up that she drags in from outsite to shred!

I'm sure you know . . .

Bummer about Rafa's loss tonight' saw a little of it.

Aim for the love & the treats. Hold your breath & squeeze the trigger.

Thank you!! My bf snuck in the shot when we were practicing recalls. I love the photos of Rafa pawing at Lucy's face! Too cute!

thank you for the cute teddy bear-- hope ur having a wonderful day!!!

Wow, Fed falls to Murray. My world is coming undone (though Murray has really gotten formidable)

Thanks for the head's-up on the Elizabethan Collar.

Glad to hear Rafa is doing better :)

Murray beats Nadal? Unbelievable. Didn't see it, too busy working. Yes, Ms. Ziggy will be getting fixed next week. She's getting more "mangaeable" each week so that's a relief. She is such a suck-up dog. Rolls over for everyone and is really beside herself if everyone doesn't pay attention to her.

She's quite the Diva.

You re-homed Rafa?

What they are trying to prevent when they suggest pulling the teeth is a malocclusion.
When I researched it I found many vets suggest pulling these retained puppy teeth(Canines) at the time of a spay and neutering procedure.
Which is what Romeo had done.
Malocclusion can lead to a multitude of problems.
Mouth injuries, periodontal disease, soft-tissue defects from tooth contact in the floor of the mouth and the roof of the mouth (palate), wear on the teeth, fractures and of course infection.
I opted to have both done at the same time.
They also suggested I keep him on a soft food diet for about 5 days.
I gave him Wellness Canned Dog food because it was rated so well and it had the best ingredients.
Hope this helps.

I found this on dogfoodchat.com

He just turned 8 months when I had him neutered.

Just thought I'd give you an update on Romeo.
I had him neutered last thursday and while they were at it they pulled two of his incisors that were not coming out on their own.
Poor baby!
Had to bring him back a couple bays later because he pulled one of his stitches and scraped the incision with the cone.
I wish he did not have to wear this stupid cone, but he is sooo active!
He will get the stitches out on the 20th.
They had to give him an injection of steroids and an antibiotic besides what he is taking.
This whole neuter thing has been very expensive!
His puppy classes have been put on hold until he gets stitches out and no more cone.
I do not remember ever going through all this with my other corgi, Ricco when I had him neutered.
I am hoping Romeo will calm down a bit, but it doesn't look like it is gonna happen anytime soon. lol
I am so glad to hear that Lucy and Rafa are getting along so well!
They are such a joy to watch when they have someone to play with!
My sister may be getting a corgi puppy the same age as Romeo.
Hopefully Romeo will have a new friend to play with soon!
I am keeping my fingers crossed!

So glad to hear Lucy has warmed up to her new brother! They are so fun to watch and we look forward to photos.

Those are some really cute Corgis . . . in a rush right now but I'll revisit your page.
Thanks for the comment on Ziggy . . . she IS photogenic!

Hi, I saw you got your gorgi at Adams county in Brighton, CO. Do you live in Brighton-I do!:) Still on the look out for a corgi or corgi mix to be best friends with our mutt Kelty. Thanks for responding-Julie

How is it going. Is Rafa hanging off Lucy pantaloons yet? What a funny picture that makes. I love the pictures.....You are pushing my "want a puppy" buttons. But then there would be three....More hair....more fun.....Hmmmmm

Yes we still twitter a lot. This week Iam off on a trip so I hope my son will tweet for Gwenie. Gwenie will take care of him while Iam gone.LOL He is an adult. When I got Gwenie from the breeder she sat right in my lap. She loves to cuddle with me. Iam very lucky. Lucy is so sweet too!
