Introducing Dale

[corgimom]

Too funny I was actually trying to picture some type of baby buggy that the guy brought over for Chip to ride in, then I saw the Avatar and thought "that looks like the same thing I grocery shop with"

Chip's mom, What was the website you referred to that you found out the color discriptions?
Dale is so cute. I rarely gush over pictures, but he looks adorable.

[Chip's Mom]

Believe it or not Linda, but I am now shopping for a stroller for the chipmunks. Jane - I yahooed, searched for corgi standards and it came up. I will try to go back and post it for you. It had great pics and easy to understand. I am not good at links. Thank you so much for saying that Dale is cute. I really like the markings on his face and I am getting excited. We should bring him home in about 3 weeks. He will be eight weeks old.

Dale is precious! What a cutie. Can't wait to hear more about him and Chip. When is the big day?

Love the photo of the Chipster in the "buggy" - we call them that too - way up here in Canada!!!

I'm sure you will have a lot of fun getting ready for Dale's homecoming. Lots of baby toys to buy, treats, etc. and puppy-proofing again!!! A tip - I puppy proofed for the trouble Riley and Rupert got into as babies - then Jemma decided to find new things to do that the others didn't. Like chewing on furniture legs!!

Dale looks absolutely adorable! I am sure you are super excited!

On a side note: We call them shopping carts here in Illinois too. I, like corgimom, was picturing Chip riding in style in a little baby buggy.

With AKC, you don't. But don't worry about it either.

"Chip has a deeper x type markings on his back - is this his saddle markings? We really need a corgi markings 101 class."

Sounds like that would be them. We might do a class at the TN picnic then.

Jane, there are color descriptions and pictures on the PWCCA website. http://www.pwcca.org

I "think" the link to take you there will be Breed Information and then there will be a link to the colors.

Thanks Debbie for giving jane the link. I need to pay closer attention when I am searching for something - but then the phone rings and I get sidetracked. I will look forward to our corgi markings 101 class.

Thought you all may enjoy this pic of Dale after he got his little ear taped. He sure doesn't look like a happy camper. Poor baby. We laughed when we seen this. Looks like we have another sulker.

Awww, too cute.

[Bayoucorgi]

Yeah, we call 'em buggies down here in Texas too. Well, I will have to say the greeters in Walmart ask if we want a buggy when we walk in the door. Although I haven't been in a Walmart in a long time.

Congratulations Bonnie! Dale is a cutie-pie, and he sounds like a good fit for Chip (who, I am sure, would not like some little whippersnapper coming into his house and pushing him around!). This is so exciting!!! Keep those pics coming!!
