Kuma - The New Love of My Life

Profile Information

Hometown:
Sacramento, CA
About Me:
My boyfriend and I are 20-something year olds, born and raised in Hawaii, went off to college and somehow found our way to Sacramento. We love our little boy and hope to be awesome corgi-parents to Kuma.
About My Corgi(s):
Kuma, born April 12, 2008 is an affectionate, people-loving and laid back little boy. His name was "Bear", given by his breeder. We didn't want to change it, but felt Bear was not quite right... we went with our Japanese heritage and chose Kuma (bear in Japanese). He's adjusting to life in a new home and having a blast with his new humans.

Last Shots and Loving Life

It's been a whirlwind adventure for Kuma these past two months. He's finally turned four months, received his last series of shots and found love! He's fallen in love (lust?) with a friend's French Bulldog (male mind you)... and won't leave the poor thing alone. At least the bulldog is tolerant of Kuma as he's young and only a year old. Oh well - two months and he loses his baby making abilities and hopefully it'll help curb some hormonal activity. We also discovered that he's a natural swimmer… Continue

Uncertainty About Training

**Reader beware! This is an extremely long post... I've separated it by topic** Kuma has been with us for only four days now and he is doing WONDERFUL! Well, as wonderful as we can expect a 9.5 week old puppy to be. He's unbelievably affectionate and loving and enjoys hanging out with his humans... but I think this will also lead to some separation anxiety issues. I wasn't able to take off from work this week, but do go home for 1.5 hours each day during lunch to feed him and play with him a b… Continue

Big Day Tomorrow + First Vet Appointment

Tomorrow is the big day! We get to pick up Bear (aka Kuma). We've been preparing ourselves for this day for nearly three months now and have been preparing our newly-moved into apartment for two weeks. It feels like there's still so much to do before our flight takes off at 6:55 from Sacramento International. We land in Ontario International (Southern Cali) around 8:3, will rent a car, drive to PetSmart, pick up a crate, cover the back seats with trash bags, sheets & towels (in case of accid… Continue

Hi there. I'm friends with Nikon and his owner just let me know that you have his brother and I have one of the sisters from the litter. She was Tinkerbell, but her name is now Bailey. Kuma is adorable. We loved him when we went to visit Bailey for the first time. Hope all is going well.

Bailey's surgery went really well. As of today, he's doing GREAT! Friday morning I took him in about 7:30am. They let me walk in the back to put him in a cage and I said bye. =*(. Then I just left. She told me to come back at 4, which I did - well more like 3:30! Then went to the back to get him and he was napping. Boy did he look drowsy and passed out. We got home, all he wanted to do was sleep. He looked drugged! He did have an appetite, was thirsty, pooed, peed and even wanted to play (good signs!) but it was just like he didn’t have enough strength to do it all. So basically the first night was REST REST REST. He didn't cry or moan or show any signs of pain (and we didn't bring home pain meds either). He tried to lick down there twice, so I opted to get him a cone just in case. He looks so cute in it. Took me forever to put it on.

I was surprised he was back to normal so soon. He wants to play play play, but were avoiding dog parks for a week, so this weekend was quite boring. =P

lol! thanks! I'm a bay area anything fan, but I LOVE the giants. =P we're going to their doggie game in 2 weeks! =P Yes, I'd either wait till he gets to adult size - some say 1 year - 18 months, but u can always buy a big one now - who knows as things will just get more and more expensive….,…!

Dave is a Bernese. I wanted to get video of them running around together, but Camber is camera-shy and would just sit down and turn away whenever the camera came out. Or the cell phone...she's onto those! Their markings were uncannily similar. I hope he comes back and visits with her.

Hi, Lexi!

Your little one is very sweet. We rescued Camber in March '08 and she's 6yo...I wish I had known her as a puppy, although it's hard to imagine her being as cute as she is right now! I don't think my heart could stand it! ha ha. I will be posting more pics of Camber today so keep checking my page.

yea! ist not too late! Kuma is plenty young. =P For sizes - he now wears a large!!!! - cause of his long body. =P But yepp, they're like babies! they grow out of it so fast. But i think for long term purposes, I think Bailey will be a size large. hahha.. i need to stop buying clothing - its now a habit .... i always have to check if anythings on sale in the clothing aisle!

Thanks! and yes! i introduced clothes at an early age. I think the first time i put a shirt on him he was 10 weeks (you can search bailey the corgi on youtube for all our videos).. but anyways! he used to try to bite them off - but now he associates it with good times - i always give him treats when im putting them on, etc - so he sees getting dressed up as a fun time to get ttreats. =P
