Shepherds are my other favorite breed and I had two of them while I was growing up. Unfortunately they tend to have some pretty nasty health problems. If I get another one, it will probably be a Shiloh Shepherd.
A corgi survives an avalanche that kills one of his owners, tunnels his way out of 12-14 feet of snow, survives 4 days in the wild on the side of a mountain in freezing temperatures, and finds his way back to his owners' hotel room. It's a sad story because they lost their dad, but at least the family got their dog back. Corgis are tough little dogs and this one must have had a very strong will to survive. Dogs are amazing animals.
I think this woman might be literally insane, but the Corgi moonwalking is pretty neat. Massive Corgi pack versus German Shepherd:
Master of horror Stephen King loves corgis: His corgi Marlowe. There's a character in the Dark Tower series based off of him: His latest corgi, Molly:
One of my dogs got attacked by a coyote. We came back from a night out and the inside of the house had blood everywhere. We think the coyote hopped the fence in the backyard and my dog must have fought it off but not before getting several puncture wounds in the stomach. It then came in the house and bled everywhere. We got him patched at a 24 emergency vet which was expensive. I wasn't sure if he was going to make it but today he managed to stand up so I think he'll be fine.
One of my dogs got into a fight with a possum a few years ago and needed to be stitched up. She killed the possum, but it ripped a few big chunks of flesh out of her face. Thankfully her fur grew back nicely so you couldn’t easily see the scars.
I got a new corgi. He's 4 years old and his name is Coen (Dutch name). His previous owner was from the Netherlands and had to return home and couldn't take him. So they surrendered him to the corgi rescue in our area. He's really smart. He gets along well with our son.
