About Me:
I live just outside Boston with my boyfriend and baby, Lola :) I work at a restaurant on the beach. During the summer we are always at the beach, or in New Hampshire at the summer house
About My Corgi(s):
Lola is going to be 2 on June 16th. She is my best friend, my baby, and my shadow. I don't know what I would do without her. Her favorite things to do outside are swim, play in the snow, and chase the birds at the beach. Inside she likes to cuddle under the blanket, rip up paper towel rolls, hide her toys and treats in the bed, and watch animal planet. She hates loud noises, the word "ready" ( I don't know why lol) , and the doorbell. I love taking naps with her, and the little noises she makes when shes sleeping. I also love the mornings when shes still tired and all she wants to do is snuggle, it's my favorite :)

Anyone have any experience with Giardia?

As some of you know my boyfriend recently got a puppy from his friend whose family didn't want it anymore. We took the little guy to the vet to make sure everything was alright and they called me today saying that they found the parasite Giardia in his stool. He said I had nothing to really worry about but I need to go tomorrow and pick up medication. I was wondering if this easily passes on to other dogs, because I'm worried about my baby Lola. I am bringing in a stool sample of her's tomorrow… Continue

Update on Lola

First off sorry this is so late, she has been better for a few days now, but I haven't had time to get to the computer. The day we were scheduled to go to the vet, we got pulled over and our car got towed!! I guess the license plate sticker was expired, and we had no clue?! It has been expired since February!! ha ha I guess were not too aware about all this car junk. Anyways, I asked my vet for an allergy test for Lola and he told me that 80% of his allergy patients have all been in this week fo… Continue

Very itchy puppy

I was woken up today from Lola shaking the bed scratching herself. She was biting her paws like crazy, and she can't stop scratching her front legs. When she bites her front feet her back legs kick at the same time too. It was cute but I felt horrible for her because she was so itchy. I haven't changed her food and she is on flea medication, so I don't think she has bugs. So we took a trip to the pet store and got "Natural Care Veterinarian's Best Itch Relief Hot Spot Shampoo with tea tree oil &… Continue

Update on Lola

Well I went to the vet today, I didn't sleep when I got out of work at 3 am so I could take her bright and early to make sure the vet would see us since I didn't have an appointment. We got there and we had to wait a little while but he took us in. We have to put a muzzle on her because she holds grudges... lol. He felt both her legs, looked at her paws, moved her legs in a billion circles, and she showed no sign of pain. He said she was very nervous and tensed up all her muscles so he really co… Continue

I hate my vet...

Figures the only time that I ever need them, they're closed. They were closed on the Saturday my cat's lung collapsed, and today, on a MONDAY, they're closed?! Lola is limping, with her back right leg. I don't know how it happened. We were playing in the yard chasing each other around, we came inside, she took a nap and when she woke up she didn't want to put pressure on it. I thought it may have been asleep but it's definitely not. I waited a while to make sure. I was touching her leg and back… Continue

I had the same fears when the one was tested for it and the others were exposed to it and because I am a breeder and had a female pregnant at the time I was so nervous. Treat the one who has it...be very diligent on your cleaning and monitor the activity of the infected dog w/the others and you should be fine. What I hate the most is you can't see Giardia and sometimes symptoms don't always occur right away. So to be safe the best remedy is to have stool cultures done. He may give you treatment for the other dog but I don't like to over treat dogs if not necessary since this can cause system upset and more issues in the long run. This is also why my vet sends stool cultures out to a lab for more thorough testing. I pay about $25 a stool culture. I hope this does help you. Are you still wanting the articles I have? I read through the comments on the post and are very good advice and pretty much sums it up. Relax and you should be okay.

Hi Stephanie, thanks for your advice. I have been telling people that Wookie does not like to be picked up and everyone has been super about it. I see from your photos that your pooches have gone hungry (ha, ha). I also see how much fun you have with them.

Hello! We should definitely arrange a meet-up once Lulu can handle herself in the doggie parks ; ) There are some great ones right near us in the South End. There is Carlton Dog Park and Peter's Park Dog Run. Those are probably the two we'll take Lulu to the most, since they're so close. Check out this link: http://www.boston.com/travel/explorene/specials/pets/dog_parks/
Lola looks precious!

Thank you for your support. Its really hard watching an animal be so sick and not know what to do about it. Its was scary there for a while when the vet didn't know what was wrong with her but she is starting be normal again.

The pictures of Lola in the tub are so cute. Corgis have such a sweet disposition and its so hard to not get emotional over them.

Hi Stephanie,
Everything is great! I have just been really busy at school! How is Lola? She looks great in her swimming picture.
