I have been playing with that idea in my mind. Corgi's are incredible that way! To see those little dogs flying on their short legs is a wonder to behold! I am going to contact the local kennel club and see what avenues for that sort of training are available. But first I've got to get her crate trained!

She seems to have settled in well enough judging by the last picture - Looks like you will have a great time with her.

Cute pup, hope she's nicer than the Queen's.

The Queen makes do with the lowly Pembrooke Corgi, while Shine is a magnificent Cardigan Corgi. Cardigans are much bigger AND smarter than Pembrookes, plus Cardigans have long furry tails that remind one of a fox's tail. In fact, as adults, Cardigans look nothing so much as like a short legged fox!

The Queen's corgis are roundly detested by the palace staff, from what I have read. They are spoiled, practically untrained and vicious. Some of them have even bitten Her Majesty, and if I remember right, didn't a pack of them rush out a back door of the palace and kill somebody else's dog who had come to visit?

It's the owner who has the power to decide whether the animal will be a pet or a pest. There is only one letter difference in those words, but a world of difference in the way the animal gets there. Marichiko knows how to do it right

My lord! That tells me more than I ever wanted to know about the British Royal(?) family right there! Corgi's. both Pembrooke and Cardigan, are renowned for their gentle natures and sweet personalities. They will get VERY protective if their owner is threatened, but other than that, they are one of the happiest breeds of dog around. That the Queen would have a pack of CORGI'S committing such atrocities is stunning. I wonder if Prince Charles tortures them from puppyhood on or what?

My god, even the pets of the rich and famous can beat a murder rap. Is the palace putting out a reward to catch 'the real killer'?
