I took Taylor down for a quick romp in a park/reserve today - just prior to an important rugby match telecast live on tv - a low and behold the only other people and dog at the park was a guy with his two little children and this black amd white Cardi pup. The guy said he lived locally and the Cardi's name was Megs - an 11 month old female. Quite pretty, but more of a character. Small in size but very healthy and alert and very very friendly and very kissy - and very annoying to Taylor.
It turned out that Megs was brought from a large pet shop at age five months. The pet shop had five Cardi pups for sale from the same litter at age two months but Megs didn't sell quickly and was still in the pet shop some three months later. Imagine three months in a pet shop behind a glass enclosure!
Typically, this guy had no intention of buying a puppy but he and his family took to Megs and so they paid $700. I am going to rope the family and Megs into my Wellington Welsh Corgi Walking Group. They only live about a five minute walk from where I live. Isn't it amazing that they have never seen Taylor before nor I Megs.
Megs has lazy ears ie not always erect. And I put this down to a lack of calcium. So the guy is going to get some calcium supplement from the local pharmacy shop.
Megs did not have a great start in life in being camped in a pet shop for too long and now been owned by a rookie dog owner. The guy admitted its taken a lot of time to get her to where she now is - a better adjusted Corgi.
