Hello Max and family -
Hello from the smallest state (Rhode Island) to the biggest!
You live in a beautiful state and have a great looking corgi.
I just wanted to tell you that our corgi - Radar, also came to us from So. Dakota in 2006. His breeder is in Souix Falls, SD and he was transported via mini-van all the way by another breeder in MA.
Can't wait to visit Alaska again someday - went there in '98.
Thanks for your comment. I am so sorry for your loss! 6 1/2 is so young but you just never know what or why things happen for. Maximus is a beautiful corgi.
Hi Sam, the reason is most brands owns other brands as well, and they tend to share the same manufacturing plant and sources of ingredients. I certainly understand and share your frustration, message our member Aloha, she's quite knowledgeable in the food area.
Hi Sam,
There are alot of people who have not heard of blue merles, they are not as common as the other corgis. It is fun to see the other blue merles on mycorgi.com. The blue merles have a wide variety of coloring too. The other blue merles have alot more gray to them. I did not know of blue merles untill we got Lance. Now when I see other breeds I can pick out the other blue merles only because I own one. We actually started out looking for a pembroke but we came across a cardigan breeder and ended up with a cardigan! Thanks for the compliment on Lances blue eyes, they make up for all the barking, lol!!! Natalie
Lance is all corgi, he is a cardigan welsh corgi, blue merle. His Dad is a blue merle as well. His Dad has alot more gray to him. Lance has some gray mixed in, doesnt show up real well in pictures but you can see it in person. Love the igloo picture! When Lance was younger we couldnt put anything in his crate! We tried to be some type of bedding in there and he would just eat it! Luckily now we gate him in an area of a bedroom and are able to put a dog bed in there for him. Talk to you soon. Natalie
Hello, Max and Lance both have October birthdays, Lance's Birthday is October 30, 2005! Hard to believe he will be three in October, seems like we just brought him home!
You can introduce "time out" anytime. The kicker is to be strong and not give attention until your pup is quiet. It shouldn' t take long! They hate to be removed and ignored. And, generally, they get the idea pretty quickly. Just remember to only use it for one behavior, like nipping. If you use it for everything, the dog gets confused.
Hi there! Thanks so much for your comments and sharing your experiences with your little nipper. =) Baxter is getting better, I've not had another face nip incident with him, when he is excited and decides to bite my hand, he's never bitten really hard, but he definitely responds to a firm NO and an immediate cease in play. He still likes to grab hold of a shirt sleeve and pull with all his might but we're working on that too. I really want to enroll him in a puppy class. Unfortunately there are none that are very close by but I am looking into a couple of places that are about an hour away. Your little max is just gorgeous, I love his sable markings. Looks like he's having a ball at his puppy preschool and with his friend kali there. =) Best of luck with your little Max, he is a handsome boy, and I'll bet a real sweetheart too. Of course they are only sweethears when they want to be heheh.
Sam,
Generally, breeders will have a kennel name and then you attach whatever name you want. Doesn't have anything to do with what you actually use as his "call" name. If you got Max from a small family breeder then you can call him pretty much anything. For example, Timmy came from working dog lines and they left the name up to me entirely. His AKC registered name is Humboldt's Gold Triple "T". GSD's I had were from established and I only got to add one or two words to the name, since their kennel name had to appear on the registration, i.e. Covy Tucker Hills-Myah, Oshi von Haus Anton, etc.
For example you could call him "Max, Born to ride Harleys" (Just for fun)
Yea, I'm hoping to get a bunch of them soon... I think i'm gonna wait until they are a little older and have their tails docked though lol. Oh and that picture of MAx sprawled out on the floor is just priceless!!!!!
Thanks for your wonderful comment. A lot of feeling went into my poem for Courtney. She was a perfect little corgi! She also came from a breeder near Plankington, SD. Probably the same breeder your Max came from. It is so long ago, we aren't exactly sure which breeder she is from. I can't wait to see how Max changes. He does look a lot like Courtney. I need to get some pictures of her up on my page!
Looks like we may be long lost relatives, at least through our corgis!

We got Gus from a breeder in SD as well. Was your breeder near Sioux Falls?
