What breeder/ rescue did you go with? Very cute.

They're both from Pecan Valley. The puppies on the site are her and her siblings. (One of her brothers is going to Alaska :3:.) The older dog, Allison, came from there as well. She belongs to our roommates (also goons), who got her for free since her litter was an accident.

Haha, I did the laser pointers with Frank but he started obessessing completely. Like searching the house for it when it was turned off. I just ended up feeling terrible to see him search for it, but man it was hilarious!

I'm glad our Snaps isn't that bad. She'll keep looking for a few minutes after we stop, but that is just sad. I guess he kept himself entertained though.


We're having to segregate Allison and Snaps for now. Snaps got spayed yesterday and she'a acting like it never happened. Which is good since she isn't messing with it and doesn't seem to be in any pain, but she wants to play like they normally do. A little too rough and tumble for a lady with stitches on her belly.

Speaking of beds, I was hoping someone here would be able to help me out. For the last couple of months Snaps has had the cat bed pictured below. She's been packing on the pounds and has nearly outgrown it. The cushion she's laying on came with the bed, though now she keeps pulling it out because she and it can't both fit. Snaps really loves that bed and I would like to find something to replace it.




Also, Snaps and Allison spend a lot of time in that area and the carpet shows it. I know what I'll be doing tomorrow. vacuuming:ssh:

What about these people: http://www.celestialstarkennel.com/

I've been wanting to own a corgi for some time, and this is one of the only breeders I can find in Florida. So just based on the site, would you say they are reputable? Thanks.

If you're willing to a bit of driving, you might look into this breeder. They're outside of Huntsville, Alabama, and from what I've read on their website, they seem on the up and up. They even have both Cardigans and Pembrokes.

Josie has a thing for zippers since she was a little puppy. Even at 8 months, she decides that zippers need to be removed from the fabric. She ruined one of her best pillows just the other day after she'd been sleeping on it for months. I guess she was like "o HEY!" and went to town. I gotta figure out how to break her of that because I like my jackets and zip hoodies.

We've never really had an issue with Snaps chewing on things she shouldn't, but last week she took exception to her pillow. She had also been sleeping on the thing for months before she decided the zipper had to go. It had both an inner and an outer zipper and she destroyed both. It wouldn't have been nearly so bad had she not also EATEN parts of them.

Also, this is most definitely not Snaps's (the tri) favorite bed - she has one of those cat domes that she absolutely loves and has unfortunately just grown out of.

Snaps is a wee corgi. She is 9 1/2 months right now and she just recently hit 16 pounds. She was a runt to begin with, and pretty much refused to eat when she was teething. On top of that she is a terrible eater; we pretty much have to hand feed her. I joke that we must have bought the vet a jet ski by now with as many times as we've taken her in our worrying.

On the plus side, our vet was able to catch it when she got a tick disease. The meds made her really hungry so she actually ate her food. And anything else she could get her mouth on. She is back to being a butt about food. Vet says as far as she can tell Snaps is just a butt.

We met her half-brother at training a few weeks ago. He was also small and his lady said that he had been a picky eater till he was about 1 1/2 yrs old, and that their father tended to make small dogs.

tldr; Snaps is a forever puppy. Also a butt.

Pets is right. Because you will never be satisfied with just the one corgi. They are like tattoos. Or potato chips. Right now we are working to build up our Oh poo poo fund, and as soon as we have that we are going to start looking for an adult corgi. Hopefully he will be a better example of the breed than this runty butt we have now :3:

Thanks, guys!

Beanie hasn't mastered "drop it" yet, but I haven't tried the "treat for the toy" trick -- sounds like a plan! I definitely, DEFINITELY have a problem with the "I'm gonna play keep away" game with her, too, so hopefully that will help that as well. I'm excited!

It was actually kind of a pain to teach Snaps to fetch. She would much rather chase the other dog than whatever is thrown, and she had a doggy roommate for the first 7 or so months we had her. When I finally got around to teaching her to "give", I had already unintentionally taught her that me getting out treats meant for her to be right beside me doing a certain set of commands (sit, stand, down, speak, and circus). It's hard to teach "give" when she has already dropped in for the promise of treats. I ended up getting one of these and putting treats in it ahead of time. Whenever she brought it to me she would get a treat out of it.

He may be very distantly related to Snaps as well since there is a Pecan Valley lady up his tree.

Pretty much. I think his red-eye filter was broken and he tried to remove it manually.

He has one blue eye and the other is half brown half blue. This picture does not do the color justice. They are beautiful.



Edit: streetlamp, I think all corgis hate the banana hat. Last Halloween we met up with a number of other corgis and their people and did a costumed walk at a city park. There were a lot of bananas. At the end there were a lot of people carrying banana hats.

I forgot to update! Corgi is now named Ellie. She's adapting excellently to our home. She was spayed last week and healing very well.

She's also the anti-Corgi. She's eating, but not finishing everything we give her. She doesn't really care about treats. She prefers to lay around and be a Corgi-rug rather than do Corgi things, and I have not heard her bark. Not. Even. Once.

Is my Corgi broken?

I don't know that I would worry too much about her not finishing her food. Our vet told us that the feeding guideline on the kibble bags are generally overestimations. As for treats, if she might just already be full. Or you just haven't found something she particularly cares for yet. Take this with a grain of salt because Snaps is a fully grown 17 lb forever puppy.

My older Corgi is an uncertified bark therapist with wonderful references. Her fees are very reasonable if you are interested. She also plays Scrabble.
P.S. It turns out I look like a dumbass when I am thinking about words.

I think every Corgi owner in this thread fears the idea of leaving their Corgi free to run around the house while no one is home...

I don't think I would have to worry about Snaps for this, but oh god Pip. He has taken all the usual rear end in a top hat puppy behaviors and instead of doing them, devotes all that energy into eating stuff he knows he isn't supposed to. I need a new laptop charger because he managed to chew through the cord from INSIDE the crate.

P.S. Make sure you always have hydrogen peroxide in the house.



What is the verdict on dogs sharing a crate? Pip probably going to outgrow the travel kennel we've been using, and Snaps's crate is more than big enough for the both of them. Is it cool as long as they get along well, or should they each have their own space?
