Blog challenges really work! A few months back when I joined one of the blog challenges, it really helped me to focus and make sure I wrote something every day — or at least got a blog post done several times a week.  Since then, though. . .well, I haven’t done as much.  In fact, [...]

Chewster Is Here!

by Nancy

Thanks to an obsessively chewing kitty, this week I made a new flower essence formula for animals; Chewster! It’s not just kittens and cats.  Puppies (and dogs) chew, too.  So do ferrets and rabbits and gerbils and . . . well, if it’s a mammal it probably teeths — and chews. For one thing, all [...]

Here again at the MPWCC Specialty Show, tension is building.  Best of Breed judging is happening as I type.  Judge Gayle Garvin (Garvin Corgis) has narrowed her choices to just 9 out of 22 Champions plus Winners Dog and Winners Bitch. Hopes are high for one favorite or another.  Every dog in this ring is [...]

Here at the MPWCC Regional Corgi Specialty Show — behind my vendor booth — we now have (counting. . . ) 5 puppies ranging from 12 weeks to 3 months, 4 kids, 3 adults, and too much fun.

We were up at ringside early today to watch the Junior Handlers (kids learning how to show dogs.)    Boys in suit and ties, girls in dresses.  All very serious and earnest.  Great fun.  They did a great job!  For the adults, coffee (for me, tea) — and a small bite to eat. Betony is at [...]

Okay, now things are really rocking and rolling here!   I have to confess I couldn’t stand to sit here and type while the freestyle was going on.  It was just awesome. First of all, Caryn Tindal of dazzledogsent.com gave us a performance of her 14-year-old disabled Corgi Winston, who is in a cart; he had [...]

Blogging live here from the MPWCC Corgi Specialty Show.  We’ve selected all the class winners and the Judge (Kandy Boll of Corgard Kennels) is selecting the Best Junior and Best Puppy.  Then there will be a live Freestyle demonstration (which promises to be a real tear-jerker) and then selection of Best In Sweepstakes. Someone asked [...]

Here at the dog show, Sweepstakes has just begun.  The 6-9 month puppy class was first, with males going first.  There were only 3 in the first class, and again 3 in the 9-12 month class.  There will no doubt be more in the Open Classes (Pems who have not yet been awarded their championships; [...]

It’s probably no secret that I love animals.  But what some of you may not know is that I have a special spot in my heart for the Pembroke Welsh Corgi.  For the past 40 years I’ve lived with one or more — and don’t imagine how I ever managed without one before that. There [...]
