Koda and the life he left behind

When Koda first came to live with us, we were living in Montana. He came to us 02/11/2005, having been born 12/01/2004. He came to us from a breeder in Atlanta, he had an exciting day flying on 3 different planes and being crated for about 10 hours (I felt bad about that). My son had seen his picture on I think it was Pet Finder and had to have him. His breeder said they had named him Smarty and I tell you, he is one smart dog, in my opinion. He knows how to manipulate me, especially when food is involved.

Koda loved the snow of Montana. When the first snow of the season came, he would bounce around outside in it, hopping about like a bunny. He would stay out there for hours if my son was out there playing in the snow. I had to often call him in to wipe the icicles off his whiskers and then he would want to be right out there again. We did watch him to make sure he wasn't getting too cold out there.

The funnest part was having to clear areas for him to take care of his "business". When the snow got over 4-6 inches in the backyard, we would have to shovel out an area so that he wouldn't be buried.

We lived in Montana until June of 2006 and I often wonder if he remembers those days of snow. Now they are a distant memory since we live in Southern California.

Looking forward to sharing more stories of our silly corgi pup.

Teggie, Watch the Birdie!

Anyone have a Corgi and parrot combo? We have a Lovebird, Ricco, and Teggie is fascinated with him. She is shy of his beak thanks to a "controlled peck" he demonstrated when she got a little too close to him on the couch, but we supervise them at all times. Just wondered how this might play out...

Teggie is almost 4 months old!

For MyCorgi members only...

I encourage you to post on this blog and I guess you didn't know that since no one was posting... That said I hope that more corgi stories pop up (that AREN'T about Jake!)

HELLO every one! Jakes getting alot of walks!

Hi all readers! Jake has been really cramped up and has been starting to bark alot, and seems to be over energetic, even for him. The solution is simple; MUCH more longer walks. Jake may have an easy time doing that, but his lazy owner would have a much harder time walking around for an hour each day with a bull dozer pulling the leash she's holding so hard that she nearly falls over. I guess I'm ganna have to make it work, or all that I'll be hearing for EVER will be his little "aaars" and barks.

In other news, Jake has, for the first time, swam! While walking him to the forest (there are plenty here in Alaska) I tossed a stick into the lake. Jake wanted the stick so badly that he didn't notice the drop off and was fORCED to swim by the deeper water! If you've ever seen a corgi swim, its cute. I hope he swims some more.

Introduction

My Corgi is the blog where Corgi owners chit-chat about there corgis. Pembroke or Cardigan, your Corgi can become an online celeberty.

I will introduce myself as JPWC (jake pembroke welsh corgi) because my Corgis name is Jake and he is a pembroke. He has the excited personality. Socks, toys, plastic, and anything edible (to him) is in danger.
