The Corgi Site - A Place To Get Your Corgi Fix

There's a beautiful and fun new Corgi Web site that debuted on January 29th!    If you can't get enough Corgi and need your craving satisfied...click on over to The Corgi Site - A Place To Get Your Corgi Fix.    The folks at this Web site have designed an informative and community-feel site.    Sections include:

• Cardigans
• Pembrokes
• Photos
• Spotlight
• Videos

You can submit photos and details about your own Corgi with the opportunity of having your fur-kid(s) featured in the "Spotlight" section.   There's also a nice revolving "Random Corgi Facts" section that may give you that "Ah-Ha" moment about a tidbits you didn't know about the Corgi-kind. 

If you have a Corgi or are considering adopting a Corgi into your life, this is a great place to frequent and reach out to the Corgi community about any questions, concerns or validation if a Corgi is right for you, your family and your lifestyle.

Corgi Commercial - Pedigree® Dentastix®

Watching the tele last night and had a good chuckle. Check out this silly, cute commercial about Pedigree's Dentastix.

I'm not promoting this product...we've never even tried it. Catch the ending canine personality? None other than a Corgi-dog! How befitting because if any breed would have something to say and come right to the point about it, it would be a Corgi!

Have You Seen the "Prized Possession" (Dog Commercial)?

What better way to catch your attention than to watch an adorable canine/dog actor flaunt his acting talents in a commercial.  It keeps you interested the whole way through wondering what has this squeezable dog so worried and tormented and what the commercial is really about.  Days after catching the commercial on TV, I didn't need any reminders as to what company it was advertising - just because of the great directing, actor and a very befitting song titled "Trouble", by Ray LaMontagne.   Effective marketing at its best!  

From the date on the YouTube info it looks like it was released in June 2009 - guess I haven't been watching much TV?

A description of the video:

In this spot from Travelers, featuring music by Ray LaMontagne, we follow along as a worried dog searches for, and ultimately finds, the smartest way to protect his most prized possession.

Happy Monday!

Nikita is Mr. December!

Our Corgi-kid has been honored to be included in the 2010 Corgis (with blogs) Calendar, designed by Kelly of the Corgi Butts blog!    How very special for Nikita because he also celebrates a birthday in December (the 15th).   

There were hundreds of entries and I'm sure Kelly had a heck of a time selecting from all those beautiful images of corgi-kin.   Images selected kept in the theme of the month/season or holidays.   The layout and design is fresh, includes all major U.S. holidays and the name of the Corgi and their blog.   Most importantly, 100% of the profits are donated to the Lakeshore Pembroke Welsh Corgi Rescue.    Click on over to Corgi Butts and enjoy all the other months' images.

There are two formats and prices to the calendar.  Links to order yours:

• 2010 Corigs (with blogs) wall calendar
• 2010 Corigs (with blogs) Calendar (with calendar options to personalize)

Special thanks to Kelly for stirring up the fun and designing this beautiful calendar for such a worthy cause.

Congratulations to everyone who entered and additional hugs and kisses to those that will be featured on our walls during 2010 on the Corgis (with blogs) Calendar.

Corgi Calendar and Corgi Butts

My bad...I should've blogged about this earlier.  There's a really cute blog called Corgi Butts authored by Kelly who adopted an adorable Pembroke Corgi puppy named Gibson.    It's a great read and some fantastic artwork (check out Corgi Butts on cafepress)  by the authoress that will just leave you smiling after each visit!  

So what was my bad? Corgi Butts is running a fun Corgi Calendar 2010 contest with all proceeds donated to the Lakeshore Corgi Rescue.   The Lakeshore Corgi Resuce services a large area, but primarily works to support purebred corgis in the Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin and the Minnesota areas. 

Submit your favorite photos of your Corgi if you have a blog by this evening!  For more information - click on over to Corgi Butts!
