Dog Show!

I am going to a dog show this weekend! Yipee! I am to0 young to go in the ring, but I will be able to be around all the other dogs and walk around the show site, learn how to be polite, get lots of petting, oohing and aahing, and all that stuff. The best part is I get to stay in the motel room with Zoe and Vickie, Eve, Snow and Star. They told me that's the best part of dog shows.

Here is my dad, when he was two years old, in the herding group ring with my human. Look how still he is standing--I don't know if I can do that--I like to wiggle my butt!!!!

The Ear Question

I have had some requests to discuss the "ear" situation, so I thought I would do it in pictures.

Here I am two weeks ago--gee whiz how embarrassing.

But to be a "true cardigan", those big ears of mine have to be up like my Dad Rocco's.

Here I am two weeks later, one up--one down. Does that mean another two weeks of tape?

Maybe if I lie on my back all the time my human will think my ears are UP! What do you think?

Rain, Rain, Go AWAY!

It has been raining since Saturday afternoon. My humans are really upset with it--there are worms, worms, everywhere. I like worms. I don't know why the humans think they are bad. They make a tasty snack. The rain doesn't bother me any--I like being wet and dirty. Plus I can roll Peanut and get her all dirty too!

WHERE IS MY HUMAN?

Well it has been pretty boring the last two days. My human hasn't paid enough attention to me (which should be 24/7/365) She is outside working, trying to clean up the yards from all the ice storm damage this year. So what, I like eating all those sticks. I'm boreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed!

CORGI--NOT!

We have a new furkid in the house. My humans think she is about 8 weeks old and she only weighs about 2 pounds. She was found by a dumpster at one of the local restaurants. Being the softies that they are, my humans let her come live with us.

I immediately let her know who is boss.

But I don't think it worked.

Oh well, I guess she can be an honorary corgi.

Rest in Peace Holly

Today is a very sad day. I just found out that my sister Holly was in an accident and has gone to the Rainbow Bridge. She was so pretty and so smart and I know her human is devastated. I know she will be watching down on me and Darby and Buddy.

I miss you Holly.

Mom and Dad

I thought you might like to meet my mom and dad.

This is my mom Flirt, aka Ch. Coedwig's Temptation. She is brindle and white like my sister Darby. She was a really good mom, but now she has gone home to her human mom in Illinois. I miss her a little, but with so many cardigan cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents to play with, it's not too bad.

This is my dad Rocco. He has a really long offical name with lots of letters before and after. Let's see if I remember them all--Am/Int'l Ch. Coedwig Roc Around the Clock, CD, RA, CGC/TDI--whew, that's a lot to remember. I don't hang with him much yet, as he is a lot bigger than I am. He is my human mom's constant companion. She calls him her velcro dog--isn't that a hoot!

My grandmother lives here too. Her name is Jolee aka Ch. Coedwig Paradiddle Bon Jolee. I haven't met her yet as she stays upstairs and I live downstairs right now. Isn't she pretty.

Well with all those champions in my background, I better work hard to be one too.

Petco-Schmetco

Well, would you believe it. My human dragged me to some store called Petco. Said I had to meet people and learn to walk on a leash. I put a quick stop to that. I just sat down and wailed and whined and everyone kept saying "poor puppy, poor puppy". Boy did I have them all fooled. I can walk on a leash when I want to--that's the key--when I want to!! But I did get a really good cookie, so maybe going to Petco ain't so bad.

Here's a picture of me getting into trouble.

That should be my middle name.

Darby made me do it!

I have been reading my sister's blog each day and decided I have to have one too! Darby lives in California with a very nice family that loves her a lot. I hope she will stop by my blog sometime to see what I am up to.

Here I am with my siblings before they went off to their new homes. Far left is Darby, then Buddy who lives in California too, and Holly who lives in Oklahoma, and the me--I'm the really good looking one right?

Well I have to go now to help celebrate Mother's Day. You all take care now.
