We are three.
I am first … founder of the clan. Bridie by name.
My real name is so long it wouldn’t even fit on this page. I was the first Corgi to come along in my human’s life. I spoiled him pretty badly, but what can I say …
… I’d never owned one before. Turns out they’re pretty high maintenance!
I was so cute as a puppy that it was easy for me to attract loads of attention, which is how I came to know my Auntie Annelizabeth, who watches me when Papa is out of town. She got so Corgi crazy, she ended up with TWO of her own!
Her first one’s name is Ellie. Ellie is second in command of my “Queendom” when I’m not around.
She has floppy ears, so it’s easy to tell the “real” Corgi (me) from the cheap imitation.
Auntie says Ellie’s ears block the bugs and rain, and will keep her looking as young as a pup.
I don’t know … I’m not buying it.
Ellie knocks herself out trying to please her hu-Mom … playing fetch and laying on her back to get her belly rubbed … poor thing. What looks can’t get you! Her hu-Mom loves her anyway.
Dewey is the baby. He lives with Ellie, and I consider him my chew toy.
There’s nothing better than dragging Dewey around by his collar or having a good match of Corgi sumo wrestling. He’s a little wooze but rounds out the group nicely.
Dewey has been neutralized, if you know what I mean, so he sings a pretty good tenor whenever the fire sirens go by. Ellie and I get told not to bark, but the hu-Mom thinks his howl is cute … go figure!
Dewey and Ellie have been to obedience training and now are learning some tricks. This is all for my amusement, of course.
It would be beneath me to participate in such folly. My primary responsibilities are ruling the underlings, being beautiful, and cheerleading for the University of Oregon Ducks.
GO MIGHTY DUCKS!
All in all we’re a pretty happy group, gathering quite a bit of attention on walks through our small town and group rides in the car. We snoozle up the windows and let the humans fuss over us.
Life is good … for Corgis and because of Corgis!
No ifs, ands or butts about it.
The End

You guys put the razzle in the dazzle!

All hail Corgi Mom/Auntie Annelizabeth, who took Bridie's dictation and translated it for our benefit … :-).
Nice work, ladies.

My husband is a Duckie fan, but I grew up a Beaver, so Noodles, our corgi, is a Beaver (since he is a mama's boy). My husband would love to meet corgi's who cheer for his Oregon Ducks. I loved the story of you three and you sound like so much fun!
