New Addition to Our Fur Baby Family


His name is Bo and he is a Welsh Pembroke Corgi. He's a cutie, but a handful right now. He was an outside dog that spent his life in a small fenced kennel all by himself. Not a nice thing to do to a dog of his breed. They need to have room to run. After all, he was bred to be a herding dog! But the owner used  him to make money, and that's what a dog breeder does I suppose. But, I have always loved Corgis, and Greg knew I would love to own one. We have another dog as well, and Buddy is half corgi half rat terrier. So far, they are tolerating each other.The cats are tolerating him as well, however, he is not tolerating them very well. But, if he wants to be part of this household, he's gonna have to get over that. After all, the cats allow us to share their home. And if you are a cat parent, you know what I'm talking about.

So, we have had to step back the training a bit. Have to think of him as a puppy since he does not know how to behave indoors, and how to behave around other animals aside from the one he is breeding with. So I imagine another male dog AND 5 cats were alot to take in for him. So, we will do baby steps.

Greg called our vet and asked him if he knew of someone who might like Bo, as he is worried I might get hurt if I have to break up a fight or something, and he's worried about the kitties, but, I have thought about it and I really think we need to give him a chance. All of our other rescues came around, and the ones that didn't get along with our furbabies, we were able to find a home for with the help of our vet. So we'll see how it goes. :)

Have a wonderful weekend!  XOXOXOX
