Corgi Testimonials

Certain stubby little dogs had a big afternoon at the 15th Annual Bark Around the Park yesterday. First, they entered a contest where they paid $1 each and got to jump into a wading pool and pick up a tennis ball. Each ball had a mark that corresponded with a prize. Wally leapt in first and then promptly ignored the balls. While he was still standing in the pool, Casey jumped in part way and began pursuing an innocent looking yellow tennis ball. She would not be distracted from that individual ball, it was the only one she wanted and she would have it, by hook or by crook. It was another example of her ball obsession. We wondered why the girls running the booth were getting excited. They kept saying, "she's gonna get it! She's gonna get it!" Finally, Casey pinned the ball against the pool wall and pulled it out by the fibers. What we found out was that the girls running the booth knew that Casey was fixated on the Jackpot Ball. So her efforts paid off and she won the jackpot which consisted of a gift bag full of goodies - soft sided frisbee, two bandannas, a squeaky toy, a new collar and some memo pads! Wow!

Then, Wally and Casey were entered in the coolest trick contest. While we were warming them up on their simultaneous tandem 'round, round, round, down' trick, a cameraman from News Channel 14 filmed them. They are such hams that they did the trick and then adorably smiled at the camera. Finally the moment arrived. There were about 6 other contestants. Most of the tricks were cute, but the dogs got distracted. Meanwhile, our little hams ran through their trick quite nicely. We wondered if they would win or if it would be the greyhound. Much to our surprise, we heard their names announced over the intercom and they were the WINNERS! This time they won a squeaky toy, a free night at the PetsMart Hotel, and a free nail trim.

After the award, we heard another member of the news crew asking the camera man if he got a shot of Wally and Casey's trick, and of course he said he had. We wondered if they would get to be on TV, and wonder of all wonders, their simulataneous three rotations and down was filmed in full and broadcast on TV! Luckily, they are not aware that this is the case so they will not get huge egos and demand an agent.

So it was a big weekend here in Raleigh for the corgi crew. How are things with you? New litter on the way soon, right? We'll all be waiting to 'hear' the big news on the website!
