I need more pictures of Dante. :) He is, in my mind, Miso's boyfriend, as soon as they actually meet each other.

Miso is still only 17 lbs. I don't think she's going to get too far past 20, really. That's fine, I like the idea of a tiny corgi. :)

Sorry for missing the festival. We've been horribly busy, and I've been working a LOT! We still need to get Dante and Miso together to play! Sadly, Miso is going to be fixed soon (Our vet advised we wait until at least 6 months before we get her snipped), so she'll need a bit of down time, but once that's through, she should be good to go!

We actually might be able to make it to the festival! Is it too late to enter Miso in the cute puppy contest? :) I have to work at 5 that day, but it would still be fun to go out with Miso!

there's a more recent pic of Belle and Abbey with Abbey on the right...she's still growing into her ears...

that's a picture of Abbey, who is dante's sister when she was about 8 weeks old...our dog Belle is Daisy's sister so she's technically Abbey and Dante's aunt :-)

Sounds like Dante's going to definitely outweigh Miso! Seems like she's staying pretty small. Haven't weighed her yet, I might have to do that soon!

We probably won't be able to make it the 12th. I think we're going to be going up to Indiana that day, to see a friend. We'll have to figure out a time to get Dante and Miso together. :)

Yes, his dad is Star Views Action Jackson and his mother is Carson's Redneck Girl :)

no way! do you know who his parents are?! maybe theyre brothers!! yourpup is so cute :)

Welcome to 2009 Puppies. Dante is a good looking boy...with a cool name.

That's fine. :) I completely understand, poor boy just got his special bits snipped!

I usually have the weekdays off. It's very rare for me to have a weekend off! I'm the girl who always covers shifts for folks. :) Wednesday and Thursday are almost always my days off, and I may occasionally have a Friday off.

I'm sure we'll figure a day out for a meetup, once Dante is feeling better!

Wow, Dante is only 2 days older than Miso! That's amazing! :) Miso isn't fixed yet (we're waiting until she turns 6 months old), but she's still a total doll baby!

Thursday sounds great. My hubby won't be there (he has to work), but I can make it!

I'll keep in touch. :)

I live very near Dynasty Buffet and often walk the dogs around that shopping center, so you know exactly where I am. I'm glad you're getting to know Louisville.

My only concern about the ear is that the longer it flops, the more unlikely it is to stand up. I would definitely tape it up at his age to give it some help. You might ask the Vet when you take him in for neutering. My Tenby has really huge heavy ears, too. I can see where they might need a little help.

Good luck on his surgery. He should be up and running around in no time. I noticed that Ashley mentioned Brown park. That's a great place to walk. Even closer to us is Warwick Park in Lyndon, off Washburn. We like to walk there sometimes, too.

Oh my goodness, you're close! My husband and I live off of Dutchmans and Browns Lane, maybe 5 minutes away from Mall of St. Matthews, and perhaps 10 minutes at most from Oxmoor Center! Miso is about 5 months old now, and still hasn't gotten to meet another corgi, let alone another puppy! A playdate would be awesome. I have this Wednesday and Thursday off (I work for Kentucky Humane Society), so perhaps we could consider a play date then. There's a really nice park nearby, Browns Park, which would be great for that.

Hope to hear back from you. :)

Hi! Welcome to Louisville. Where are you from? Dante is adorable. I can just smell the puppy breath! It's been a long time since I've had a puppy. My Dixie just turned 14 in June and Tenby, who I got as an adult, is 4 1/2.

I live very close to you all. If you take Lyndon Lane north, it becomes Herr Lane and then Lime Kiln Lane. I live in the area of Lime Kiln and U.S. 42. If you're at all familiar with Ballard High School, I'm near there... probably about 10 minutes from you.

As far as the floppy ear, I've never had that issue, but I've read of people taping the ear up. A great resource for Corgi owners is the email group Corgi-L which is made up of over 1000 Corgi owners all over the world. If you have questions, there's nothing that hasn't been asked before. Go to http://www.corgi-l.org/ to join the list. I've been a member for many many years.

Welcome to the world of Corgis!
