Yep, that him! Twin Valley is a ranching neighbor of mine. I thought I had seen him before.

CORGI BREEDERS/OWNERS, these two websites might be of interest to you. Color in dogs might not be as simple as in cattle.

Thanks for the info. regarding Corgi females having pups, or maybe more correctly stated, having difficulty having pups---when folks heard we had a sable Corgi female they came out of the woodwork wanting to know if they could breed their male to her---geez folks we don't need a teenage pregnancy-she's just four months old! But anyway, we had thought of it because lots of people have inquired that if we ever did breed her they'd like to have a pup. Now we will definitely reconsider.

I know it sounds stupid but Holly is worth so much to us as a member of our family that we would be devastated if anything happened to her. We are over 60 miles from the vet-they do ok with bovine c-sections, but I'm not sure I'd want them working on Holly!

I'd love to talk the hubby into another Corgi and Holly would love to have someone to "play" with other than my inlaws old dog and the "mangey" barn cats! I somehow can hear the answer now! NO!!! It was tough enough getting Holly that I should be thankful for what I have---even though the hubby can't imagine life without her now!


Murgen:

Thanks for posting the dog color sites--I know dog and horse color genetics are much more complex than cattle--until you get into dilutors in cattle--then cattle color genetics get a little trickier!

Maybe we should have a "Farm/Ranch Dog" forum on this site. Between FH's puppy's name and the Corgis here---

Well everyone take care, have a great day, and Cheers!

I'd go for a Puppy Forum! LOL!!

My daughter had a Welsh Corgi. They loved her dearly. Called her RD for Rotten Dog. She was a tear! Someone went through where they lived and stole several Corgies. Her neighbor got both of hers back, but our daughter never found RD. One of the neighbors came into the truck stop a few days after being missed and the other, a veterinarian in Minnesota found. This one happened to have a chip and the vet scanned the dog to see. BINGO!! Found the owner through the chip. She drove clear from Wyoming to Minnesota to get her dog.

Might be a good idea to get a chip in those dogs. I think they are stolen a lot.
