Sounds like Daphne is being a bossy girl! I am honestly still getting a feel for maintaining a multi-dog household, but one thing I do know is that I decide who gets to be in my lap, who gets petted, who gets brushed etc. If one is in my lap and ...

I think the Cesar Milan method would be best! I follow his advice and I find that the problem is usually the human (mine) and not the dog! She has become the pack leader and you need to take it back.

I'd take away all of her high value spots and teach her she has to be invited to go to them anymore. I think thats along the NILF system that is used by so many here. Also do walk them seperate?? maybe walking each one by themselves once a week wi...

I think a good way to address this problem is that whenever the little one tries to act posessive over your lap, you put her on the floor. That way she will learn that being possessive doesn't get her what she wants, being close to you. So far if ...

Thank you! We both tell her "no!" and try to separate her from him before anything gets out of control. But, she likes to provoke him. And she usually starts the fight when we're just out of reach.

How is your little sister doing? My little Mimi drives me crazy at times, but I do love her. I get very protective over her also at the dog park like a big brother dog should do. She is catching up fast thou in size. I'm about 33lbs and she just went last week to get spayed and they said she was 24lbs. She eats more than I do and is kinda bossy come dinner time. Anyway, I always enjoy looking at family's pics that have more than one corgi. Hope you and your family have a wonderful weekend.

Dingo :)

But just like any mom, I take them in whenever something just doesn't seem right. . . .My little Cloe is a real talker and she tells me when she doesn't feel well. . .she comes up to me, looks at me with sad eyes and starts to whimper instead of her usual aaarrrrhhh!!!

We are so proud of you !!!

At 2:18pm on February 17, 2008, ♥ AdEle said…: Hi guys..
If tomorrow Daphne test turn out to be positive of Giardia, you should just get the medication for both instead of testing both dog (giardia test can be somewhere around $30 to $50 each time and if one dog has it the other usually will get it too.
Usually the Vet might want to re-test them again after the first set of treatment (5 days) and again, but it is most likely that it might need a second set depending on how much has this protozoan affected your dogs.
Otherwise test + medication, test + medication, test again times 2 dogs will be $$$$.
And if the Vet only prescribed Flagyl (metronidazol), get : Panacur ( Safeguard Canine dewormer) on line, to give your dogs with the metronidazol.
At KVVET.com they sell Panacur canine dewormer for $10.50 (three 4 gram packets) and devide it between the 2 dogs according weight. 5 days treatment twice a day. It will get rid of Giardia and it's residual.
Giardia cause effects on the body not by invading the tissues, but simply by being in the way. It multiplies to the point where it sort of paves the lining of the intestine and blocks normal digestion (malabsorption). This causes only partially digested food to get lower in the digestive tract than it should, causing diarrhea.
At the vet Panacur can be $15 ~$20 per dog, per treatment.
Panacur Safeguard is also de-worming medicine for dog that is better than what most Vet will have you paid.
This will get rid of whipworm, hookworm, roundworm, tapeworm, and help clean up giardia.
At the Vet usually they give Pyrantel Pamoate (only for roundworm and hookworm) and charge $12 ~$30 each visit.
So if you give panacur that you get your self you don't need to purchase dewormer from the Vet.
Good Luck. I still hope that they just swallow something that cause a tummy ache... and it all will be over soon.
Best regard, Kissy's mom

I wish you the best of Luck...
Please post an update on Daphne's condition.
You have 2 good looking corgis...;0)

At 2:37pm on February 8, 2008, Kristen said…: Something I have to look forward too--once again. My Basil was very easy, but the girls took a little longer. I think I only had one accident with Basil, about 5 with Lizzie and I quit counting with Fergie, but it really didn't take that long. Corgis are so darn smart they seem to figure things out pretty quickly. Glad to hear the kids have become fast friends. It is so nice when they have a buddy to burn up some of their energy with. Have fun!

Hometown:: Brea

About Me:: Bill and Desiree have been together since February 2005. Bill had always wanted a corgi. In October 2007, Bill found the perfect pup and Des couldn't say "NO." Shortly after, they moved to Brea and started looking for their 2nd child. In February 2008 Daphne came home. And although Apollo didn't like her at first, now they can't be separated. Des and Bill married in October 2008 and are busy raising their family. Hopefully it will be bigger one day. With both human and fur kids. =)

Welsh Corgi Breeder?: No

About My Corgi(s):: Apollo is a red male born July 31, 2007. And Daphne is a blck-headed tri born November 22, 2007. They are the loves of our lives!!! We spoil them and treat them as our babies(I know that's not always a good thing). They enjoy chewing on things that aren't theirs(especially socks), barking loudly, and frapping through the house. They are protective of the house, but very friendly towards others!!!

I have:: Pembroke

possessive/agressiveness

Hello all! I am really sorry but my husband and I have not logged in in a few months and I have some issues needing help. Daphne, our little black tri, is very possessive of me. I often joke about how I should have named her "shadow" because she constantly follows me. She will be 2 in November and she is very possessive of me when it comes to my husband and Apollo being around. If Apollo jumps on my lap she grumbles and tries to push him off. If he doesn't move, she then growls and starts fights… Continue
