I bet that made her smell good. At least she was small enough for a sink bath. My boys love the lake, and it's always a bonus when they can find something fishy to roll in!

That's funny, that little hind leg flip with the turn! Mine do that too. It must be hard to keep that long body in-line. Mine love to retrieve in the water. Beautiful dogs.

Profile Information

Hometown:: Fort Wayne

About Me:: I have two pembrokes. Both red and white, one worry corgi and one party corgi. They are opposites, but both are the best. I am an RN and work at the local hospital. My two children have recently grown up, and moved out. This creates more dog spoiling- at least according to my husband!

Welsh Corgi Breeder?: No

About My Corgi(s):: Petie and Elliott. Petie is 14 and Elliott is 2. Petie is sweet and mellow. He loves to swim. He loves riding in the car. He is afraid of storms,and waits them out hiding in the bath tub.
Elliott is a Party Animal! He loves to fetch and play, play, play! He is a cuddle boy, but only on his terms. He may be part cat :) He climbs, and likes to be on the back of the couch.

I have:: Pembroke

Petie is back on his regular senior food, and eating with normal corgi enthusiasm. He is eager for walks, and playing with Elliott. He will be 14years old in two days. Go dog, go! Thank you, Saint Joe Vets- angels all!

Petie: " Eating ice with my buddy, and feeling much better!"

Getting back on track after multi vet bills and TLC. Thanks for the support of my friends. P.S.- " I like having speacialty cooked meals! Just when they thought I couldn't get more spoiled. : )"

Addendum to " Worried Sick".

After getting a shot today for nausea, he still wouldn't eat the lamb and rice canned food the vet sent with us. He snubbed cookies, but in the afternoon ate some Ice cubes. Finaly at dinner I cooked him some lean meat and rice, and he ate! Not with his usual zeal, but he has kept it down. We took a slow meandering walk tonight, and his spirits seem to be improving some. Thanks for your support. Only my fellow Corgi lovers can know how much my old dog means to me, how many tears his warm fur has… Continue

Worried sick!

Petie is very sick. He has not touched food without vomiting in 2 days. Because of his age ( 13 ) I am worried sick. He has been very stressed for 5 day because of his storm phobia. I took him to the vet yesterday. He wouldn't even drink water. He had x-rays, which were OK. He got a… Continue

My dogs do not enjoy Independance Day!

They are celebrating the holiday under the bed. Blaugh! It wouldn't be so bad if it were one night, but around here they won't run out of fireworks for weeks!

I do like the way the Martingales slide on and off easily. I just leave them clipped onto the leashes, and the dogs don't wear collars in the house, and not always when they're loose int he fenced yard -- although this IS a risk in the event that they get loose unexpectedly -- they're chipped, but a collar tag with a phone # can be important.

At 4:01pm on November 2, 2009, John Wolff said…: collar FAQ
This shows my leash rig with the chest harness (for dangerous river crossings etc.). The black chest harness wears a sore on their collarbone if they wear it all day. I also flag the collar with lots of bright survey ribbon, preferably day-glo hunter orange or hot-pink magenta. A corgi could be mistaken for a fox.

Outward Hound sells these little plastic fold-up dog bowls that weigh nothing.
Sometimes water is scarce even in the Cascades, so I carry a 1/2 pint water bottle to save the water the dog leaves in its bowl.

Good thing Elliott has so much white fur -- the more white fur, the dirtier they can get.
The dog gets its own little foam sleeping pad with a small square of polar fleece for a blanket at night.

At 9:59pm on November 1, 2009, John Wolff said…: I feed their regular diet plus kibble. 2x or even 3x their regular rations. Our dogs stay quite close, and once they figure out that this is going to go on a long time, they fall into "Energy Conservation Mode" at my heel; but after dark, I want them in FRONT of me, not behind, and I'm working on training them to stay no more than 8-12 feet in front.
Important to remember to water them regularly if it's dry. I try to give them regular small snacks (since I'm eating constantly myself), but again, containing food odors is difficult. I always try to keep food stuff double-bagged in twistie-tied plastic bags.
I grew up in Minnesota and my uncle taught me to be paranoid about bears.

For overnights, I have a decent bear hang system requiring two 100' clotheslines and a small carabiner. You string Line 1 between two trees, high up (often involves some tree climbing) with a figure-8 knot equidistant from the trunks holding the biner with Line 2. Line 2 is now the "halyard" used to raise & lower the (tough, preferably raven-proof) food bag. Functional as opposed to cosmetic bear-hanging takes quite a bit of practice to do efficiently, and I always do this setup first, 'cause it's very difficult to do in the dark. Hint: I keep the bear hang kit in a small stuff sack which is used to hold the throwing rock, else I waste lots of time trying to tie the cord to a rock; also I can use a bagful of small rocks.

At 8:23pm on November 1, 2009, John Wolff said…: For hiking, make sure you have a reliable recall. Mine are always off-leash, but we seldom meet people. Donb't know how that works on the A.T. I have a quick-draw leash clipped to my pack strap with a small carabiner and held coiled with a stout rubber band. You want to be careful of encounters with horses -- a dog can spook a horse. Dog food is a problem, 'cause it's essentially prime bear-bait. I do whatever I can to contain smells. I actually have odor-proof O-ring-seal plastic cans (park from work) and bring their regular raw meat (frozen) on weekends, but for longer treks there are actually freeze-dried meat packages, outrageous $$$ (I don't spend that much on my own food) but can really cut down the weight. I carry Pawz booties for foot emergencies; seldom used them except for loose sand and snow. I do NOT make the dogs carry anything

Have a porcupine kit. I always leach the dogs at night. Coyotes sometimes try to lure a dog off.
I'd suggest finding local books -- I have "Best Hikes with Dogs in Western Washington", Dan Nelson; it has a lot of good general info but I'm sure there are similar titles for the east coast.
He cites LaBelle, Charlene; Mullally, Linda; Smith, Cheryl S.

I just got back from 2 weeks in Canyonlands -- not corgi-friendly (or corgi-legal) terrain. Some stuff, not even a corgi can handle! I missed my dogs. A healthy, fit corgi should be able to hike as far as any loaded human in a long day (G has done 23 mi in 14 hr with 8000' gain)(I so love to brag about my dog:-).

At 12:11pm on September 28, 2009, June Hill & Sophie said…: Sophie thanks you for all your nice comments! Your two are ADORABLE! the pic of the corgi butt on the couch - too funny! My Sophie loves to swim too, I am wondering what brand/size of life vest you have there. It looks like it makes them more bouyant(sp?). Sophie does OK but starts to roll after a while.

At 8:46am on September 2, 2009, Maryann & Henderson said…: Your two boys are so cute! Hope Petie's feeling better.

At 11:39pm on August 27, 2009, Debbie and Sadie Mae said…: Thank you kindly! I have a bunch of cute photos. I will get them posted soon! Your little one is a doll!
