Hey Jessica! Glad to hear you are doing well. I had a scare with Llyr the other day. This big nasty thing showed up on where his tumor was removed. Turned out to be a hot spot. Of all places! Scared the living you know what out of me. He does not love the medicine I have to spray on it. He now runs when he sees me get the spray bottle. Liver treats are helping to take his mind of the dirty deed!

Hi Jessica! Yes, corgis sure do shed. The hair is just longer with the fluffies! I just broke up a fight between my 2 guys.....Llyr gets testy at times in his old age and Awstin is starting to challenge him for Alpha position. Llyr is not ready to give up that top dog position. Emma is a great name. Are you a Jane Austen fan by chance?

Hi Jessica! OMG...another corgi lover!!!!!! Yea! I have 2 now. Llyr is 11 1/2 and Awstin is 3 1/2. Both are fluffies. Llyr just went through Thyroid cancer and has to be clipped because he can't have tick treatments for a year. Gotta love those bunny butts! Thanks for the friend invite. I'd love to hear more about your corgi.
