Yeah, I love him so much, your Pumpkin is sooo beautifull too, good idea let's start a West European Group

No problem with the typhoon in Florida, Christine ?

Yes I got him from Faeriesteed. His daddy was blue bear

Bonjour Christine !
(I thought that Christine was a French name, and at 1st, thought you were may be French !)

For most French people, Switzerland = chocolate, mmmmmmm........

And yes I work here, but not everyday, and not all the day, I teach French language. It's just good, I also have time for the family (including of course the 2 Corgis), the garden...

Christine, if you are only "semi-retired", it's that you're working a little ?

Oh, and thank you for your mail adress ! (here too I gess we can send private messages ?)

Have a good monday ! Mine is already finished.
From Florence.

Hi Christine !

When Uyanga came to Japan, she had to stay 2 weeks in quarantine, but I heard it changed....and don't know what changed.

I can't tell you anything about the climate in Cannes because I really don't know this part of France ! But people use to say it's warm all the year. But pearhaps colder than Florida ?! well, I gess...
If your husband is swiss, don't you stay in Switzerland when you spend some time in Europe ?

I've been to your country you know ! But very long ago, in 1978, I was 18 ! (lol)
and far from Florida: I spent a month in Iowa, and stay in "homestay" in a very nice family, living in a lovely white little house, in the middle of corn fields.

Sorry but....where is "Key West" ?

Pumkin is lucky, me, I've even never been to Cannes, and all south France, because now, my parents are retired, and they live in Normandy !
My Uyanga was born in Bourgogne, but it's a long trip, and in Japan, dogs need to stay in quaranteens in Tokyo airport, so, she will may be never go back to our country, poor Uyanga...
In Japan, Pems are very common, there are a lot everywhere, but Cardis are very few, most of the people even dont know about this breed.
Pumpkin was born in Florida ? He's really beautiful !
In Uyanga's kennel in Bourgogne, there is one blue-merle Cardi like him, but Uyanga's father is a tricolor.
I'm going to look if I can find your friend, 3 Corgis......hhihi, marvelous !!!

Bonjour Florence,
Bien sûr .. Pumpkin promenades sur le Croisette. Elle est une grande étoile. How nice to hear from a Parisian. I was beginning to think Pumpkin was the only Cardi in France. She's been in Cannes for 14 months, but doesn't speak much French (like her mom). She likes it here compared to Key West's heat & humidity. She especially likes the food!!
Your girls are adorable & they look like they're having fun. Are there a lot of Corgis in Japan?

Bonjour Christine !
You live part of the year in France ?! what a surprise !
And your Cardi is beautiful !!!
Do you take Pumpkin with you to Cannes ?!

Regis sure is loving the country! He grew up in a 1 bedroom apartment, so now that he lives in a house up here, he is so happy! And he loves that he has a big yard to play in- he's in doggy heaven right now. And he has a nice long hall way to play fetch in on rainy days :D He's super happy! I heard that you can take dogs a lot more places there! That must be so fun! We take Regis anywhere we can, but most places aren't dog-friendly. What a lucky princess she is!

You have a beautiful Cardigan! Just beautiful!

Pumpkin is quite cute. :)

Must be fun living in Key West - I got married on a beach in Islamorada. Sure would be nice to go back for a visit...

Casey,
If you can't get the instructions I can get them from my breeder. It's like a bridge across the tips of the ears & down each one as well. Maybe someone on My Corgi knows more. I love the blue merles, we stop traffic when we're out walking,especially on the Croisette in Cannes. Good luck with the ears.

Tape!!! What a great idea!!! Although - I have to wonder if he'd put up with it for long... at six months he's already fairly bossy :) I love your Pumpkin! What a pretty girl! Our corgis could be family - it's so great to see another corgi with the blue merle coloring... they're so beautiful and unusual. We're lucky moms!!! Thanks for totally making my day, Christine!

Thanks Christine - He's feeling a bit perkier - hope all is well down there in the Keys. Some day we'll get these crazy blue merle girls together...

Hello Christine - a fellow cardi lover, and finally another blue merle! My little Luna is a blue, and quite the little vixen - I'm sure your Pumpkin gets all the comments and all the love. Nice to see another south Floridian, as well. We also have a 5yr old male b/w, Kai. He puts up with Luna's antics, but is a great dog. How does Pumpkin handle the flight to France - that's my dog's next big adventure...

What a gorgeous girl! She is a beauty. She came from Greensboro? Ah, a fellow North Carolinian. :) I am looking forward to the fun of owning a corgi...or is it being owned by one? My pup is actually going to be a red and white boy, he's a pembroke. His coat was dark when he was born, but it keeps getting lighter by the week. Can't wait to get the little guy home. Three weeks to go!

PUMPKIN IS GORGEOUS! i JUST LOVE THE BLUE MERLE. i'VE ALWAYS HAD THE PEMBROKES-DON'T THINK I'VE ACTUALLY EVER MET A CARDI INREAL LIFE. THEY COME IN SUCH A GREAT VARIETY OF COLORS. ARE YOU FAMILIAR WITH THE AVERAGE PEM DISPOSITION, IF SO WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES?

I miss those big ears.......when I look at your pix my heart hurts! I miss you Pumpkin! I miss hugging that beautiful coat you have! Have mommy hugyou for me, Bella Pumpkin! xoj,f,s,r
