Thanks, always nice to hear my puppy appreciated! Yours are cuties, too! The little puppy pix are fun, it brings up good memories of Gemma doing the same things :)

I have a hard time keeping track of everyone on here (there are so many neat people to talk too) I was wondering how Fern was doing? Was the surgery a success? Happy Holidays to you and all of your family.

Kristen. How did your "kids" fare with the "babysitter" while you were away?
It is stressful to leave them. Just getting ready for Christmas. Yesterday Penny got away from me and fell in the neighbors' lake trying to get water. Her elderly mother saw what she thought was a deer in the pond. Penny couldn't get out and had been in there 15 min. or so. By the time Sandy called me and I drove over there, we had to go in and pull her out. I never saw anything like that in my life. She couldn't move. Thought we would kill her just pulling her out but had no choice. Dragged her a good distance to my truck and then I had to lift her in and then out again at home. It took 3 hours to dry, warm her up before she stopped shivering. Her breathing was very shallow and labored. Did not think she'd make it but she pulled thru. Gave her a warm bath last night because she smelled terrible. Aaron and his fiance were in an accident on our dirt road this morning on his way to work. They are OK but banged up a little and her car is totalled. I LOVE this stress! Take care and Happy Holidays! Penny

Hi Kristin! Rotor did AMAZING in the wedding! I was so impressed. My brother walked him down the isle and stood with him. he had treats in his pocket the whole time to keep him happy. He started whining towards the end but i think it was just because he wanted to come see Todd and I. When we kissed and everyone was cheering, Rotor started barking and it was PERFECT! :) Your corgis are so cute!!

Hi Kristen, Its been very sad. We lost Nancy Nov 29th. I miss her very much .
Then if life had not thrown us anough, my oldest corgi, Baylee's daughter and Furby's sister, Kayla had to be put to sleep yesterday. Thanks so much for your thoughts Its been hard I've have been huging all my kids alittle harder. Jenny

Thanks so much Kristen! I'm in my 2nd year, so I'll be done in another year and half. I can't wait, haha.

Who do you lobby for?

Welcome to all of you!

Kristen, just want to wish you and yours a wonderful Thanksgiving! Penny and family.

not too many, just 3 males and one female were at the show. His next show will be in Jan in Des Moines then looking at St. Joe 2 weeks later.

Kristen, Thank you so much for your prayers. I all so have horse's and I met Nancy in the mid 90's. We had gotten baylee from the owner of local feed store owner and friend Betty Case. Betty had Baylee's mom and Nancy had her dad. Nancy had the boys and Betty had the girls.I bred baylee to nancy' s male Little Guy. Long story short Baylee had 3 pups and lost 1. My breeding experience did not go well . The pups were not coming out and Baylee and Nancy and I spent 11hours at my vets almost losing Baylee.Nancy was my rock and we have been best friends ever since. I never bred Baylee again. Nancy lost her last corgi in 2004 and now has two chihuahuas. So seeing she was missing a corgi's love I wanted to get a new baby for her. Betty had some pups at the feed store that came from Tampa and I saw Nellie, but my great friend saw how much I like that little cutie and beet me to the punch and bought Nellie for my 50th b-day but that is Nancy, always thinking of others first. She would love to see all the new corgi friends. Thank you again for all your kind words and sharing all your kids pictures, what cuties they are and your kindness to give Fern a great home.Corgi people are the greatest! I took today off to do somethings around the house and spend many hours with Nancy and turned on the computer and saw the many messages from you guys sending Nancy prayers I was so blown away. Thank you again Jenny

You should be worried, I've gone through it how many times and still til this day I get to be a nervous nanny when the time is near. I love my dogs dearly and don't want anything to happen to them. I don't play big dog...If I start to question what is happening I am on the phone w/the vet and fortunately my vet trusts that now. They themselves have learned if I'm alarmed they better be too. I don't know it all..there is more to learn every day. Just be willing to admit that you don't know it all. Be prepared and highlight areas of concern and refer back to it during the whelping. I read my material over and over and while I awaited for that first pup comforting mom, I reread so it was fresh. You can never be over prepared. Good luck. Just google away and read it all. What one article might mention another might not. When do you expect to start and to possibly have your first litter?

Here are few links for you....you should ideally look into articles on the care of pups as well..noticing and knowing what to do for a fading puppy and so on. Hope this helps.

Hi Kristen, Snowy did get a point at the Sat. show in Lincoln

O'my gosh..I'm sorry Kristen..I forgot to get you some links on reading material. I get so involved w/so many things that I forget some things I promised. I swear I was not ignoring you. Fall is my favorite time too but it seems we don't get much of a fall anymore. It gets nasty and almost slips right into winter.

She is gorgeous. I will try to get some new pictures. Shes put on 4lbs since shes been here and she is looking really good. Shes really connected w/me and I think I got my Meagan Jr. which is exactly what I wanted. I love my Meagan and her personality is to die for. Thank you for the compliments. I will get those links for you tomorrow and if I forget again you can choose my punishment. LOL

thank you. My husband want`s to breed, too, that´s why he surched very long to find Jerry. But first I need a little bit more time for the dogs, so it will take some years. I like your Photos,too. In the beginning I thought, just Jerry is a crazy dog, but when i see all this funny Corgie pics... they are really great dogs.

Aspen did take to the wheel chair quickly. I had a couple of bones in my hand and away she went. She seems to like it very much. When I do not use it, I just put the hoist on her and she seems to enjoy that as well. Thanks for the comment.

Thank you!!! Your Photos are so cute. Are you a breeder?? Because you have so much Photos from puppies...
