Pembroke & Cardigan Welsh Corgi

Sizzledog · 02-25-2007, 11:41 AM

The dobes are handling it fine (although the snow is up to their armpits) but little Ada can't get anywhere! She tries to jump over the snow, but she barely gets anywere. I think I need to shovel out a "pee area" for her...

One thing about the south, you seldom see half that much snow around here. In fact, it's 60 degrees even as we speak and my Daffodils have bloomed!!

ZdogZ · 02-25-2007, 12:27 PM

No snow here, either. Lots of sunshine today. High 60's for today. Friday our temperature was around 78. We had lots and lots of wind yesterday, 60-65 mph (sustained, not gusts) in this area. It was awful!

Chip's Mom · 02-25-2007, 12:54 PM

It is quite windy here today also. Dale doesn't like the wind. But the sky is the prettiest blue and the sun is shining and feels warm so I would say in the high 50's. Spring is coming.

I guess this means it won't be long till it's time too start cutting grass and killing weeds.

Not my favorite pastime as it takes away from my playtime!

corgimom · 02-25-2007, 01:26 PM

We had a ton of snow also - I have never seen so much snow at the end of my drivewway; at least 2 feet deep. My husband is stuck in CA (if you call that stuck) because of the weather we had yesterday and today and he could not get a flight home. My furnace was also out this morning; but that has since been taken care of. My daughter and I got all the snow cleared out and I need some

Sizzledog · 02-25-2007, 02:04 PM

Not Ada... but if this doesn't give all you lucky Southerners the chills... I don't know what will!

Oh... and did I mention the ICE???

gailkate · 02-25-2007, 02:32 PM

The dobes look gorgeous!
Here in MN we're also buried in snow. Not as much as expected but serious shoveling and snowblowing. 9" to drifts of 2 ft. I worried that our Tosca (named for a heroine in opera) would be unable to get through it but she LOVES it. She bounds like a kangaroo. She also loves burrowing through, using her nose like a little mole. I swear, this Corgi was made for snow! Our cocker (male, also 1 yr-old) is taller than she is but less excited about it. She gets him flying around and yips her demanding little bark saying "Play! play! play!" till he's all pooped out.

I had to shovel out my car and my corgi this morning.

We woke up the boyfriend with the 4x4 truck at 7AM so Penny could get to the puppy park and tromp on some pristine snow. She loved it. All the bunny-hopping through the deep stuff looks like a great workout.

To all others enduring the weather, have fun and be safe!

milosmom · 02-25-2007, 05:53 PM

We only got 2" of snow today, which is nothing. However, we are getting that layer of sleet/ice again. Ugh. It's 30 degrees, so it is cold. I would rather get just snow!
Milo and I are going to curl up and watch the awards tonight! Milo hopes The Queen will win, only because it is the only movie to have Corgis in it!

ColColt · 02-25-2007, 06:39 PM

Mmmmm....I don't know how ya'll stand all that cold and snow so often. I'm about as far North as I care to be. I saw someone on TV the other day up North actually shoveling about three feet of snow (or more) off the top of his house. No way I'd be up there. Of course, if you fell off, there's plenty of cushion below.

ChloeLouise · 02-25-2007, 09:57 PM

It is still snowing here! When ChloeLouise and I went out for "the last walk" this evening, she had to walk in the tire ruts in the road (snow plows work minimally on Sundays!)...We probably got 6-8 inches but maybe more because it blew around quite a bit. Anyway, all the area schools are already closed for tomorrow... Send some of that warm weather this way!

corgimom · 02-26-2007, 10:49 AM

Still snowing here also - we are supposed to get another big storm this week

At least someone is enjoying it.

Dillydoodle · 02-26-2007, 11:02 AM

Looks like Cody is having fun in the snow! Surprised he didnt lose the ball in all that white stuff! We got snow too, and the boys had fun playing in it this morning...

ChloeLouise · 02-26-2007, 01:34 PM

I LOVE your photos of Cody, Linda!! And he is NOT on-leash!...I am so envious - a well-behaved "free-range" Corgi! Altho, I was thinking that the snow is so deep here that ChloeLouise might stay sort of close if we played in the yard sans leash...especially if I have cookies in my pocket!
