Welcome 👋🏼 Start here!

Towards the end of 2019, my husband and I decided we’d really love to get a Corgi.

We’ve always been big believers in adopting a dog rather than getting a puppy, so I put my name down on The Welsh Corgi Rescue Service's waitlist not expecting to hear anything for several months, possibly even years…

And then, as if by magic, we got a phone call to say there was a 12-month-old boy available called Winston, who’d happily live in an apartment in the city.

Those first few weeks were a big period of adjustment. Winston was getting to know us, and we him. We quickly realised how scared he was of other dogs and that he had no idea how to walk properly on a leash.

We also saw how much he loved the discarded chicken bones that are sprinkled down most south London streets 🤣

Fast forward to today and we can’t imagine life without him.

We’ve lived together in Porto. We’ve successfully dealt with fleas. We helped him lose weight after putting on some lockdown pounds. We even got into a habit of brushing his teeth.

I've made mistakes, learned lessons, and tried and tested various products.

In 2024, I decided to set up a newsletter as a way to share my journey and tips with other Corgi owners out there. To make us feel less alone and better connected to all the other (happily) crazy Corgi owners out there.
