Today on The Daily Corgi I’m handing the blogging reins over to Megan Arszman. Her Pembroke, Dally, appeared here in recent weeks as Queen of the Roadtrip and again as a fierce competitor at the 2013 AKC National Agility Championships. Take it away Megan! This is Dallas Mae. Or Dally, or the Diva, or Dallas […]

The Fabulous Four: An Update On the Rescued Auction #Corgis!
Back on May 5th, I blogged about a joint effort between Minnesota’s Secondhand Hounds and Corgi Connection of Kansas to visit a breeder’s auction and buy several Corgis, with the aim of giving them new lives as pets, enjoying the comforts of home, hearth and family. Well, friends, look who’s barking now! I give you, […]
Copper John, Trude and the Treats: #Corgi Hope Springs Eternal!
Copper John: I don’t think we’ll ever get a treat. Trude: Be patient, dear. Some of it might be for us. Copper John: Oh! You might be right! He said my name! Trude: See? What did I tell you?! So how often do you get company in the kitchen, when the vittles come out? This […]
Emma the Town and Country #Corgi of Yorkshire, England!
Emma is a true town and country Cardigan, living with her Mom in the verdant Yorkshire countryside and visiting her “brother” Alistair in bustling London. This girl about town arrived on the scene Christmas Day 2008. Alistair writes: “She arrived in Yorkshire at eight weeks old, and on her first night cried until she was […]
Eva The Diva of Kentucky: Truly Corgi – licous!
Outgoing Eva has an “I’m fabulous” personality and a general addiction to people and affection. “It’s all about moi!” Says Mom Susan R.” “Even being spayed and forced to wear the “cone of shame” didn’t come close to dampening her charming personality.” (I’d say it reflects her natural radiance!) “Eva was a surprise present from my […]
Get Your (Unofficial) Summer On! #Corgis in Kayaks and Canoes
Yes friends, it’s a float-y, festive kind of Friday. The beginning of Memorial Day weekend, when many of you will put your boats (and paws) in water for the first time this year. Have a wonderful weekend and don’t forget to wear your safety vests! And Corgis, watch for falling hot dogs and hamburgers. Seriously, keep […]
Thursday #Corgi Adoptables: Doc of Minnesota
Doc is a sweet gentleman, of a certain age. However, don’t let that dissuade you from wooing him to your side. As Mark Twain once said, “age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter”. An old dog is much like a fine, aged cheese … a little funky, a little […]
Bob #Corgi, Martha and Lola of Massachusetts
My name is Bob. You may know me by my stage name “Bob Corgi”. Here is the story of my real life fairy tale. Even before I was born, my Mom and Dad were waiting for me. You see, they always wanted a dog. Mom wanted a Corgi and Dad wanted a Mastiff. So they […]
Seven #Corgis, Thirty-Four Years and a Lifetime of Dog Dreams
Anita Nordlunde grew up in Switzerland in the company of dogs. Her mother had German Shepherds, then Borzois and eventually Collies. So perhaps it was inevitable that as an adult, Anita would want her own dogs. Years later, as a wife and mother to a ten year-old boy, she could no longer ignore the longing […]
