He was not your usual Pem Corgi in this regard but it was realetd to his relationship difficulties with his elderly owner.
With my Taylor, I just have to say "leave" or "arh arh"- and he leaves. Or "oooh" and he trots away from what he was smelling. And he doesn't like the taste of sticks - so he is no fetcher. All my Pems I have had have been quite fussy to very fussy once they got out of the early puppy stages where exploring and sampling things are the most important aspects of life.

Well, I think we are finding that many of us have Corgis that like sticks, cat poop, rabbit poop,grass clumps, grasshoppers, worms, leftover food, wrappers and everything inbetween. Does this mean we have bad relationships with our dogs? Many of them seem to eat this stuff when we are not looking. I think we all need to get to the bottom of why are Corgis are behaving in these dog like ways.

I guess we should all be making appointments with the dog psychologists; would they provide a couch for both of us?


Michael, thank heavens you don't have cats because Taylor just might find those droppings heavenly
