Molly, Rhys, Jerry - Pembroke Welsh Corgis "not begging"

From left to right in the picture: Molly, Tartan's Unsinkable Molly B, age 5, makes the most incredibly delightful aahrrroooo sounds. Rhys, Kallista By Starlight Beguiled, now age 2, picks up empty dishes and brings them to me; he just knows someday I might give him seconds. Jerry, Ch. Tartan's I Am I Said, age 12, is an absolute sweetheart and doesn't need to do a specific thing - just looking at him makes me smile.

Jerry is my first Corgi and I've had him 8 years. He's taught me so much as he earned his CGC and became a regular nursing home visitor. He's been down in the rear for 5 months due to IVDD and is making some progress. He can stand and does a scoot hop using mainly one rear leg with the two working front legs.

Molly came to me at the age of 6 months and was my first show dog. After a couple of years she told me that conformation shows were not her cup of tea and we began some herding and obedience work.

Rhys will probably always be my "puppy boy." He was 3 months old when I brought him home. He has won a Best of Breed in conformation and we will continue showing him. In addition, we are working on getting his CGC and becoming a therapy dog.

These are magical dogs and can very easily charm their humans into spoiling them rotten by providing home baked dog treats from Baggins' recipes!
