My Corgi is a jewelry hound. It...There you have it. My Corgi is a jewelry hound. It all started with the pink and white polka dotted collar I bought him last month. Next day, he was like a kid in a candy store poking in my closest for new pieces. I caught him in casual “what, me…a jewelry hound???” mode trying to make a getaway with the loot he’d taken. These shots aren’t the only evidence. He left a couple of bracelets on the stairs since they wouldn’t stay on his paws while running. The one consolation? He only takes pieces from my most recent collection at indigorhinodesigns.etsy.com. At least the pooch has good taste. <br /><br />If you'd like to see a photo of Sake adorned in my necklaces, just let me know.

After 10 years, we know each other pretty well. I AM alpha, but she's next except for Daddy. :)ocmisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14573017187040669068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855276285056599610.post-29611188698282948222009-07-21T16:53:01.328-07:002009-07-21T16:53:01.328-07:00Yeah, I'm sure dogs take to some personalities...Yeah, I'm sure dogs take to some personalities and appearances more than others, just like people do. Maybe that dog in your neighborhood has something against Dumbo ears. I personally LOVE Philip's Dumbo ears and wouldn't have him any other way. I can't believe how much he's grown in to them. You know how people say you can tell how big a dog will be by his feet? I think with Corgis the measurement is the ears. I should have known Philip would grow up to be a behemoth with those ears. Ha! Ok, neither he nor his ears are THAT big. I might be exaggerating a skooch. ;)<br /><br />And yes, we'll definitely be there tonight! I can't wait!JuLohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04666635743536304775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855276285056599610.post-19527318718665175942009-07-21T14:48:48.080-07:002009-07-21T14:48:48.080-07:00I wonder if it's something about Fireball spec...I wonder if it's something about Fireball specifically that Theo doesn't like? There is a dog in my neighborhood that likes other dogs in general, but he absolutely will not have anything to do with Philip. If Philip approaches him, he will growl, bark, and otherwise show how displeased he is. I don't know what gives, but his owner tells me it's just specifically Philip, all other dogs are fine by him.<br />Are you guys coming to the get together tonight?Philip's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00499797714117497220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855276285056599610.post-26672260864032419682009-07-21T14:00:06.593-07:002009-07-21T14:00:06.593-07:00Hehe.

She does submissive peeing though.<br /><br />Lucy usually is ok when I pet other dogs... as long as someone else has a tennis ball!

What gives? We live in the desert! It's not supposed to be 85 degrees at 9:30pm! Ewww! Hehe.<br /><br />There's a golden who lives in the neighborhood who sounds just like Koda. I finally got to meet him for the first time last week because I would out running and didn't have Theo with me. He's such a sweet dog when he's not snarling at mine! Hehe.<br /><br />Kelly, it sounds like Gibson and Theo react pretty similarly. Isn't it so cute when they get all happy? It's definitely not a Corgi thing, since I've seen a bunch of more dominant Corgis at the meetups. Maybe we'll call it an awesome-Corgi thing. ;)JuLohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04666635743536304775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855276285056599610.post-35075056513556841012009-07-21T05:39:13.842-07:002009-07-21T05:39:13.842-07:00haha Gibson is very possessive of me if I try to p...haha Gibson is very possessive of me if I try to pet another dog too. He has to jump inbetween me and the dog and lick it in the face til it backs off. What a weirdo :) <br /><br />Oh and maybe submissiveness is a corgi thing? Whenever we come up to a new dog when we're on a walk, Gibson will lay down with his ears low until the other dog approaches and says hi. Then, as soon as he knows the other dog won't hurt him he goes crazy and nubs and jumps around and is ready to play!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15603869004108948801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855276285056599610.post-4180831814207948062009-07-20T20:57:07.894-07:002009-07-20T20:57:07.894-07:00LOL; Koda is no social with any dogs but if we dar...LOL; Koda is no social with any dogs but if we dare to say hi to the owner of another dog, mind you not even acknowledge the dog, he has a fit and does a little snarl and pull at the leash. I've learned how to very softly and with motions say hi to other dog owners. Of course most of the time we have to cross the street when approaching another dog because Koda usually will start barking against it<br /><br />Theo is just too cute with his attempts to like all (except pups)<br /><br />don't you love this hot weather?<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.com
