Susan Stanton commented on Ashley & Ryan's blog post 'my first haircut!'

I also don't recommend any kind of shaving (just a little bunny butt trim to prevent what I call "poopy butt"). I take my guys to a groomer to get a really good bath maybe twice a year. The groomer does a great job after the bath of brushing them ...

Bonny commented on Ashley & Ryan's blog post 'my first haircut!'

I would only have the groomer bathe and brush...no trimming. Corgis don't have continuously growing coats like other dogs, so cutting it doesn't make a lot of sense to me. I agree with everyone above, trimming won't help with shedding, and I can't...

Lisa commented on Ashley & Ryan's blog post 'my first haircut!'

I don't think its a good idea to trim a corgis coat. I used to have chow chows and I had one of them shaved once and only once. It was a terrible mistake. He was miserable and got sunburned and bitten by ants. My inlaws always had their chows shav...

i wouldn't shave them because i think they'd look a little weird. ein goes to the groomers on a regular basis (once a month or so) and he loves it. we haven't cut his hair yet and don't plan on doing so since you're really not supposed to. he did ...

I have shaved & trimmed Dee Dee's hair before. There were times her hair didn't grow back correctly (especially the part I put flea medicine), but most of the times, it does. I have heard both arguments on not shaving & shaving, but either way, my...

JW commented on Ashley & Ryan's blog post 'my first haircut!'

Griff's groomer, who used to own and show corgis, told me that they will never completely shave a double coat because "it never grows back the same". My Griff is a fluffy, so he's much more high maintenance than a normal coat when it comes to the ...

I don't suggest cutting or trimming your Corgi's coat. Their coat is the perfect insulation against both heat and cold and by cutting the hair you distrub this natural process. Shaving exposes their sensitive skin to irritants and increases the li...

About Me:: My name is Ashley and I'm 19 yrs old. I'm currently attending HWC to earn my Associate's. My boyfriend and I share the responsibility of raising our chubby baby, Crooker.

Welsh Corgi Breeder?: No

About My Corgi(s):: Crooker is a 1 yr old purebred Pembroke corgi. He was born on January 22, 2008. We bought him from a local store on April 2, 08 as my birthday present. He was all alone in his kennel and it was love at first sight for us and this hair & jacket biting monster! Crooker is extremely playful & lovable. He is still being trained and because of his extreme stubborness, its a little tricky!

I have:: Pembroke

my first haircut!

Hey All!
Tomorrow is Crooker's first haircut appt and I was wondering how other corgis have reacted to being groomed. Crooker despises bath time lol but usually he gives in and just sits there. However as for the style of haircut, how have you told the groomer to cut your corgi's coat? I don't think I want them to completely shave him (I think he'd look weird) so maybe just a trim?? Right now he is shedding up a storm (more so than usual) so I think a trim will do him some justice. Let me know y… Continue

At 10:57pm on March 4, 2009, Sara said…: Congrats on the Corgi! Did you get yours from petland? Or maybe it's from a MIssouri line? It looks almost identical to our male. If you ever want a play date, let us know!

At 10:49pm on March 4, 2009, Sara said…: Your Crooker looks a lot like our Keenan. Did you get him from Petland? We seem to find random siblings and they look so much alike. I am glad you are having a great time, let us know if you ever want a play date!
