Yes! And I'm reading Stephen King's newest book, "Under the Dome". It has a corgi in it! I've just started (it's already a page-turner!) and have not met the corgi yet, but I can't wait! Oh and it's 1076 pages...I can barely lift it.

I've read good reviews of "Under the Dome," but none mentioned a corgi. Now I must buy it, but at 1076 pgs, I think I'll wait for it to come out in paperback.

The only reason I know is because I'm obsessive enough to read the "Some (but not all) of those in Chester's Mill on Dome Day" list at the beginning of the book, LOL. Under "dogs of Note" it lists Horace, Julia Shumway's corgi. She's the owner/editor of the local paper. ^_^

Thanks a lot! I don't read/watch Stephen King, even though I read a lot of books. So, after reading your post, I just went and got the book from my mom. I'll be starting it tonight because of you! Ahhhh, corgi obsession!

I'm flattered. Do let me know how it is. I would have bgt it, too, but I thought it's too big in hardback to bring to bed, where I do most of my reading.

I believe Oscar Wilde was a Corgi owner.

He once said "I'm having a bath, must you people follow me everywhere? If you're not a Corgi please put your trousers back on and get out of my bathroom!”

Jennifer (Roberson) is actually a Cardigan show breeder. You can see her dogs at cheysuli.com. She's a lovely person and a breed mentor, so she's available to answer questions about Cardigans too.

Not a famous Corgi owner, but Corgi in a movie...

I was at the dog park today and someone said they fell in love with this breed when they saw "The Accidental Tourist" - I've never seen it, but I looked around youtube and found this...
