After several lonely weeks in the north Kansas shelter where he’d landed as a stray, Capone was becoming afraid and uncertain about his future. “Just when I thought there were too many hours in a day, or that my days might actually be numbered” he muses, “Jeanette from Corgi Connection of Kansas saved me and […]
Profiles In Caring: Corgi Connection of Kansas

Thursday Adoptables: Good News for The Tail Twins!
Remember Sissy and Brother, last week’s adoptables on the blog? The good news is they were both adopted yesterday. The GREAT news is they went together to the same home — a Corgi Connection of Kansas first!

Thursday Adoptables: Brother and Sissy — The Tails of Two Corgis!
Brother “Tail Twins” Brother and Sissy found their way to Corgi Connection of Kansas from a veterinarian’s office where they’d landed for euthanizing after the woman who found them failed to find them homes.

Sam of Florida, The Quicker Licker Pupper!
Sam came to grace Sara O.’s life by way of Sunshine Corgi Rescue. He just turned one a week ago, and gets even cuter than THIS every single day. (I know, huh? Impossible but true). Sam was a foster. When Sara got him, he was nine months old. She didn’t think her home was ready […]
Adoptable Thursday: Teej of Kansas!
Teej is an interesting guy who came to Corgi Connection of Kansas by way of Craiglist. This highly spunky Corgi/Heeler mix hasn’t had a lot of room to roam in his young life and missed a few (OK, a lot) of classes in the canine socialization academy. Which makes him a great candidate for somebody […]
