Heck, I have enough trouble giving meds to my socialized cats! I can't imagine trying it with a cat I can't even get close to. There is an anti-biotic shot that works for 2 weeks. It's a bit more expensive naturally but it sure saves stress on you and the cat. I had to do that with one of mine...he had heart inflamation and needed to be on antibiotics for a long period. Rather than stress him (and me) several times a day I opted for that. Going back every 2 weeks was a lot easier than trying to get pills or liquid into him.
Hey Jane!! Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you. I haven't been online much rcently. I had to have cataract surgery on both of my eyes, and my reading vision has really taken a hit. I have to get some glasses but I have had so many doctors appointments and evaluations to go through for reactivation on the transplant list. I am hoping for better news this Thursday. I hope you guys are all doing well, and that the corgi gang is feeling fit and sassy! Calvin is doing great...he's such a daddy's boy. He does come up to me for some loving though. He's such a lovey dovey. Who knew, right? He sees his people friends on his walks now, and he even runs up to them now. He's come a long way. Although, he still doesn'y seem to like car rides. We will have to teach him that it is possible that ice cream might be at the destination. Maybe that will help!
We did get two horses, and are getting a miniature and a regular size donkey this weekend. Jackson is good as gold around the horses, he's made no attempt to chase them at all. My male gelding loves him...he'll follow him around the pasture wherever Jacks goes. Our biggest problem is his love for all things stinky...horse poop, dead animal leftovers, etc...Yuck! But he's happy as a clam when he comes in all stinky. He found a dead frozen squirrel last winter, and came prancing up to the house with it--he was so proud of himself. :-) We aren't getting chickens until next year, so hopefully he'll still remember to be good around them. He's got a little fiery streak in there somewhere...!
Yeah, I think she was protecting me from whatever it was that she thought was a threat. She is normally the happiest and silliest dog I've seen, not to mention loves everyone. But she has gotten protective over me a couple times, mainly when I'm sleeping and someone is gonna come into my room. She loves me!
Lola woke me this moment when she all of a sudden stood over my legs in bed, faced the door, and started growling. Her little Mohawk on her back stood up and everything. I don't know what woke her up but she did succeed in getting my attention!
Jane, I was sure you knew what you were doing. We have been having unGodly winds, it would seem as if we are in a "plains" state. Thank heaves, they are getting better.
Jane....I added a photo of Duffy (and me) to my page. I'm afraid this is the only one I have scanned at the time. The rest are all Polaroids...does that tell you how long ago it was? They are wonderful, gentle giants who think they are lap dogs. My husband is 6' 7" and Duffy could put his front paws on his shoulders and tower over my husband. You learn fast about leaving anything edible on counters...they can reach them with all 4 feet on the floor. We would have another one in a heartbeat but their short life spans really do a number on your heart.
They don't sell mosquito insurance in Washington, like the do in MN, but the flies in the mountains in summer can actually make people lose their heads -- I've seen it happen -- the trick is to get above 5500-6000'. They don't seem to bother the corgis much -- thick fur.
Hi Jane I notice in the groups there is one for Pembroke Corgi's with tails!. I notice most of the pic's of Pembroke Corgi's are the usual with out!. May I ask what are the laws in the US to docking of tails?. In Australia it was banned several years ago. My Vet whom I have used for over a 1/4 of a century agree's with me that a Welsh Pembroke Corgi looks better without!. My next puppy will need to come from New Zealand thank goodness a relative still breeds them for how much longer I don't know?. Vets are not allowed to do it only under certain circumstance's!. What are your & a lot of people on this site views on this subject>

Thanks Jane! I will check out those groups.

Thank you Jane! And I hope you have (or had) a wonderful birthday as well!

Thank you for the birthday wishes for Bentley. He had a great time yesterday on his photo shoot outing.
