Quick Bio:
Likes:
Sprocket loves tummy rubs, running leaps into your lap, fetching his toys, playing in the grass and bushes, long walks, his buddy Cubby and other dogs.
Pet-Peeves:
His pen, baths and his buddies Cubby or Shifter getting more attention than him.
Favorite Toy:
Mr Frog but it used to be his squeaky hedgehog, basketball, hamburger or stuffed cow, all of which no longer squeak. He also likes stuffed animals that rattle.
Favorite Food:
What isn't his favorite food?
Favorite Walk:
Northside where we live and Clifton
Best Tricks:
Lappy leap, sit and fetch/drop/fetch...repeat 700 times until you're too tired to move.
Arrival Story:
I had wanted a Corgi for the longest time but never pulled the trigger on buying one despite looking at several. Finally a friend got me to go with her to a breeder in the middle of cornstalk county Ohio to look at some pups. I wanted a tri-color male and Sprocket was the only one they had. He was so little! 3 pounds and 8 weeks old (the runt of the litter). His mother and sisters picked on him, he had to drink water from a frozen bowl and he had to sleep with his sisters on hay in a barn. Needless to say he needed a change of address.... Now he lives in the burbs with his dogmates, an english black lab named Cubby and another Corgi named Shifter.
Bio:
Sprockets full name is Sprocket the baron launch pad, razzmatazz, dive bomber, von Gulley. Sprocket never has a bad day, unless he sneaks some mulberrys while playing in the backyard and gives them back to me later. Squeaky toys are his favorite along with stuffed animals that rattle. He loves to play fetch. I mean, he REALLY loves to play fetch. He also loves to run through bushes (especially with a leash on) or in circles and then stop, bark and repeat four or five more times. When he gets a treat he plays with it first before eating it. Loud noises make him mad and he's not very happy when he gets a bath but loves being dried afterward with a big fluffy towel. He not sure what to think about Shifter yet but he's very nice to him... unless food is involved.
Forums Motto:
Death to all nail trimmers.

My therapist says I need to start putting my emotions to paper. Well, I miss the days when I was the only Corgi in the house. Now I've got this fuzz ball of happiness stealing my thunder. Sure my owner pays attention to me but this other "Corgi" thinks he's numero uno in the house. He constantly steals treats, attention, water, toys and anything else he can get his puppy teeth into. Ugh.... I just want to chew those ears right off of him. That and when we go to the vet and he doesn't even put up a struggle! NOTHING!!!! He lets them cut his nails.... LETS THEM!!! No biting, fussing, barking or snarling... just licks and calmness. I'm not sure where this little hairball of love came from but mark my words that breeder better watch his heels. Wait a minute. Is that a car I hear possibly a mile or so away? Gotta go!

OK, I've been living with my owner for over a year now. I love him very much but today everything changed. There's now another Corgi in the house and I'm not sure what to think. This new guy is soooo annoying! He tries to eat my food, steal my toys and then keeps nipping at my heels. Nipping at MY heals!!! Who does this little runt think he is? I'm the herder in this family. That and he gets to pee inside! Oh yeah, and if I hear one more line like "he's so cute and fluffy", or "he looks like a baby bear!" I'm going to puke. I need to formulate a battle plan to re-take the house. I'm meeting with Cubby later on today....
