I'm sure you can handle the job or else they would not have hired you! Be proud they feel you are able. Learning a new job can always be tough and sometimes very stressful as you know. Just hang in there and it will get better. It has to, right? A...

Early days are always overwhelming. You don't know what you're doing yet and you totally lack the social support system you have in a job you've held for awhile. It's normal to be nervous, and I don't know about you but when I'm under stress, over...

Hang in their, the first few days are the hardest. Keep focused on what is important in your life and the rest will take care of itself! Lots of Corgi Love helps.

Aww, first days at a new job are always hard. After a while, I'm sure you'll be an old pro at it!! Hang in there! When things get tough, just think of your two babies!

It is probably good that you realize you don't know it all in a new job. It means you are ready to learn. Your corgis know you are special so listen to them, they are smart dogs!!

She carries it with her ALL day, like a pacifier. Imagine a milkbone sticking out of your dog's mouth ALL day. Now Kai, our other dog, has severe eating issues, so his function all day is trying to figure out how to get that treat OUT of her mouth..... Very interesting household.

We go back to see him this weekend and the breeder said his ears may be erected up by then. Can't wait! BTW I just added the Tri-Colored Corgis group. =)

At 2:35pm on May 30, 2008, Rachel said…: Laurie - George sure DOES chase the cats (Tom & Ollie) in fact I think it's one of his favorite past times. We were initially concerned, but then we realized that the cats were actually coming back for more. Now we just let'em at it and the three of them go in circles. Best part is when they "change direction" and the cats chase HIM.

At 9:19pm on May 29, 2008, Karen & Bailey said…: =O fake testicles!?!?! lol... i cant imagine doing that... how .. AWKWARD!

Ohhhhhh, it looks like bailey does have a descended scrotum - which i guess houses the two testicles (if my anatomy class from high school serves me right) lol, and is covered in fur. I thought he was missing it because i thought it would be more visible.. but im glad. ?!?!? unless thats not it?!?!?!!?!?!??!?

Bailey's ears didn't come up till about around that time - 10-12 weeks. I forget the exact, but probably can determine that if i go back and look at my pictures. I don't think the ear and testicle thing are related. =P

Good luck, i hope to hear good newssss soon!

At 7:16pm on May 29, 2008, Karen & Bailey said…: I can't for the life of me figure out how to message you privately lol... so here it goes..

I saw your discussion, but since i didint want to post this (in fear of embarassment!!!) i - do you think you can help me:

Is it obvious when the testicles have descended? I mean I haven't been checking everyday, and I haven't been told to take a look. lol. Are they visible to the naked eye right near the wee wee? Appear as lumps near hte wee wee when hes standing? I wil check when I get home.. lol...

Bailey is 4 months and 1 week old.

Bad day at work helped by corgi love

I just started a new job and I feel so over my head. I came home in tears and when I opened the door there were my two sweet smiling corgi babies. Loving those two is the best medicine in the world. I still think I got into a job that I am not smart enough to handle, but corgis make me think everything will work out somehow.

6 month old corgi puppy at Peoria Illinois Shelter

Someone left a six month old male tri-color corgi at the shelter's front gate. He has been there since August 22, 2009, so his time is limited. He really needs a home ASAP!

Nice to meet fellow MyCorgi.com members

George and Rosie went to Bark in the Park and we met some other MyCorgi members and their sweet corgis. We really had a lot of fun even though the weather was really warm.

Corgi needs rescued from Peoria Animal Shelter (PAWS)

There is a male corgi who was picked up as a stray and is now at the Peoria, Illinois Animal Shelter (PAWS). He needs a home. The shelter has to keep him for five days to see if his owner claims him, but if they don't he only has a short time. Their telephone number, if anyone is interested, is (309) 494-8700. Does anyone know who does corgi rescue in Central Illinois?

My Dad's Schnauzer has Cushings disease

My Dad is so upset because his 12 year old Schnauzer has been diagnosed with Cushings disease and pancreatitis. Peggy Sue was my Mom's dog and I think if she passes that my Dad will lose his last reminder of Mom who died in 2004. I have done some internet research and it seems to be treatable. Has anyone had any experience with these diseases? He also is having trouble getting her to eat the prescription diet that the vet gave her. The vet put her on ID. Dad always gave her lots and lots of peop… Continue
