Question Does your Corgi snore?

Peanut does. In fact, he's been known to snore while wide awake, lying on the floor. Yes, it really is snoring and not reverse sneezing (which he does do on occasion). I'm not really concerned about it, but am interested in whether or not I am alone in this.

Maxi snores especially when he is in deep sleep, it is really kind of rhythmic so it does not bother me.

Taylor doesn't snore. Other Corgis I had did on occasions but they never worried me because they never slept in my room. Taylor, though quite often, moves around my room in the early hours of the morning and he sometimes shakes himself before settling into a new place - which is usually on his own bed at floor level down from me. My wife calls it shaking his ears - but it is loud enough to wake either of us up - it doesn't annoy me too much as I seem to drift back to sleep quite quickly - but my wife sometimes complains bitterly. And for the next night, Taylor sometimes ends up sleeping in my youngest son's room or my daughter's room. But apart from ear shaking on occasions, he's given a few low, short growls to tell us that someone or something is outside our window and we tend to accept that as part of the deal in having a watchful dog. During the weekdays my wife gets up about an hour earlier than I do, yet Taylor stays beside me on his bed - often til I arise and after my wife has left for work.. But it's a different story when my wife get's home at night - he demands first 'go' at her, telling how his day has gone and how much he missed her in that special Corgi voice reserved for those kind of occasions.

Ruby doesn't snore but sometimes she drools all over her bed at night. During the night she periodically moves from her bed to just outside her bed on the floor.

My Duchess snores but not loud enough to make me concerned or bother my sleeping. She stays on the floor near my bed. I have tried to get her to lay on a cushion. If she does get on, she doesn't want to stay there.
Lately my darling has been getting underfoot a lot. I love that she is so bonded to me but is there a nice way to keep her from tripping me?Jane

Reba occasionally snores and sometimes runs in her dreams (the feet are kicking) and quietly woofs which is odd because she rarely barks otherwise, she also chain sneezes (which is really funny to watch because she squishes up her nose then sneezes repeatedly) but it's a fairly rare occurrence.

Jane, my Betsy who passed away this December was very bonded to me
and always by me. She would never go lay in her basket at night until
she checked that I was in bed. What I wouldn't do to have her underfoot
again - I know it can be a nuisance, but someday you will miss that.

Linda,
That is so sweet and I know what you mean. I don't want to break the bond, just to keep her from getting herself or me hurt. I have had Duchess eight months now and she is just starting this habit of getting in the way.

It's funny the people who have Corgis in their way because I've never had that problem. I get to know where the Corgi is - so I don't stand on their feet or knock into them - and they usually position themselves so that they are as safe as possible within the confines of where they are. My wife use to have a bit of trouble with Taylor but not anymore as she and him have this awareness thing I have been relating. But when we have visitors they can often get tangled up with Taylor - so it's just a matter of ones sub-conscious in working mode that rectifies this problem. When you sit down, sometimes your Corgi will rest her/his head on your feet - and this can 'force' you to stay still to accommodate your Corgi. Taylor often commands the top stairs landing in our house and all of us have learnt to skirt around or over him without telling him to move. He's a good teacher.

Jane,

I know, I was just being sentimental. I remember sometimes going to the
refrigerator to get something and turning around and practially tripping over
her - I know what you are talking about - when it's happening, it can be
annoying, but like I said it is sure something I now miss.
