Kim commented on Kerstyne's group 'Toledo Area Corgis'

Hi All! Yes, I can still do a meet up at my house on Sunday Sept 27. How about 4:00 PM? My address is 7006 Gettysburg Dr., Sylvania, OH. Gettysburg is off of McCord between Brint and Sylvania Ave. I'm thinking we'll just watch the dogs run and pla...

Debbie Algieri replied to Kim's discussion 'Herding' in the group Pembroke Elementary

Thanks for the advice. My 8 week old little angel is herding the cats! The cats are pretty good about putting her in her place but every chance she gets, she tries to back them into the corner. I'll see if I can find a herding ball for her to play...

Glad to hear you're OK! Looks like we're a go for the 27th with you, Valerie, Sue, and us. Maybe Rachel will stop by for a "look see"?

Ok, I'll pencil in the 27th and wait to hear from others in the group . . . . . hope we have a few more. Hey Kerstyne, we haven't heard from you in a while . . . . hope you and "the boys" are OK? And Augustine; I'm sure you're busy with school . ....

Kim commented on Kerstyne's group 'Toledo Area Corgis'

Hi Everyone, Sure enjoyed the walk at Wildwood! We'll have to keep that in mind for future gatherings. Since August is perking along and I know my schedule is filling up, I thought I'd throw out an invitation for a September meet up. I'm willing t...

Kim replied to Rachel Wells's discussion 'Questions on Corgis' in the group Toledo Area Corgis

Hi Rachel, Welcome! We have a 1 year old Corgi named Nellie and I can tell you she is a bundle of energy - in a good way! She loves to go for walks, play in the yard chasing small balls and pushing a "herding" ball around, and she initiates play i...

Kim commented on Kerstyne's group 'Toledo Area Corgis'

Hi All, I was checking in to see where we're at with the park walk this Sunday and so far it looks like Valerie & Simon, Sue & Robin, and Bryan, Nellie, and I are coming. I think Sarah was unterested too? If it is going to be a small group then Wi...

Kim commented on Kerstyne's group 'Toledo Area Corgis'

I guess the choice of location really depends on what we want to do . . . . . .if we are planning on actually walking the dogs on trails, then I vote for Secor Park as the trails are wider, grass covered instead of dirt, and not so crowded. Howeve...

Profile Information

Hometown:: Sylvania, OH

About Me:: My husband and I are empty nesters and wanted a dog to help keep us active and to keep us company. We both work full time, but love coming home to our new little bundle of joy!

Welsh Corgi Breeder?: No

About My Corgi(s):: Nellie was born 7-7-08 and she is our first puppy! She is teaching us so much about patience and consistency . . . . . we are starting training classes tomorrow!

Thought it was time to update a little bit as Nellie is now a little over 8 months old. We've been to Puppy Kindergarten and Obedience Training and have found a wonderful trainer . . . . . who trained me as well as Nellie! I knew we were in for a long session when she asked us on the first visit: " what made you choose this particular breed?"! Nellie is a little head strong, but she is a quick learner and we have mastered, sit, heel, and down both inside and outside. Boy did "down" outside take a long time! We are continually working on "stay" with varied success. This totally depends on what or who may be making noises near her when she is trying to stay. In some ways, it's pretty funny to watch! She is also learning some cute little tricks like shake, roll over, and go to sleep. And again, working with her is so much fun as she is a quick student . . . . . especially when there is a treat in the offering!
Her favorite toy is her 10" herding ball and she can really get it moving!

We continue to have a lot of fun with her and it is so nice to come home to that smiling little face.

I have a baby pool out for the guys to cool off in, but if you didn't want a dirty corgi I could pick it up. I shower them off before they come inside and they love playing in the pool. I have a big fenced in back yard so they have plenty of room to run around.

This message is also posted in the TAC group and I'm sending it off to Mittens too.

We should all get together again soon with the pups.

At 8:22am on March 30, 2009, Applejack Pembrokes said…: Kim, I walk at Wildwood myself, when do you go? It would be fun to meet up, I need more excercise along with Izzy who is getting kinda "Pudgy". Nellie is wonderful!!!! and little Dexter sure is doing good. When Tax season is over on April 15th I can walk anytime. We have been trying to walk avery Sunday when the weather is OK. Keep up the good work she is a "beauty"...Susan

At 9:45am on March 23, 2009, Riley & Sadie said…: I'll start working on it. I'll keep you posted.

At 8:52am on March 23, 2009, Riley & Sadie said…: I've been thinking about starting a group myself. I'm glad there's one around this area now. I've been reading all the posts and looking at the pics of all the fun other corgi owners have been having all over the country. I think we need to have a Corgi picnic when it warms up some.

At 3:33pm on March 22, 2009, Kerstyne said…: Today was wonderful! I had a lot of fun and it was great to see Nellie. When the sun is shining a little brighter we'll have to have you over for a barbecue and we'll have a doggy pool and all of that.

At 5:06pm on March 20, 2009, Kerstyne said…: I look forward to your message!

At 4:51pm on March 20, 2009, Kerstyne said…: I'm free weekends and have class M&W until 3:15pm. If you wanted to meet this weekend we could, or even today. I could bring over my bad boys and we could talk. I literally have been laughing about this. How funny that they have the same parents, we live so close, and we've been looking for corgi buddies.
