Riley's Details

Type: Dog | Breed: Pembroke Welsh Corgi | Born: Nov 6, 2004

Pet War Standings: 24 wins | 62 losses | rank: 79038

Description: Riley is a good watch dog, and can get very wary of strangers. He is quite territorial and might possibly bite if you come around when no one is home. He is quite protective of his home and his people. Riley was my daughter's dog, but she abandoned him, so now he is mine. He is quite the spoiled and pampered house dog and loves it that way. He is also territorial and has big dog syndrome, although he is the smallest dog, you would never know it, and I don't think he does either.

Delilah

4 comments

Well, call me crazy, but I got another puppy. She is a pit bull mix. I named her Delilah and she is showing herself to be very intelligent. I took her to the vet yesterday, she got her first shots and was wormed. She was born on March 13,2008, so she is just now 6 weeks old. She did well last night, didn't cry and didn't cry when she left her mom and siblings. She got her first bath because she was filthy and is now beautiful. She slept with my son last night and had no accidents. She we… read more

Samson is Missing!

Is this not the worse thing a pet owner can face? Saturday morning he was here. He was fine. I fed the dogs. He was on the porch when I gave him his joint supplements, fed him and gave him a treat. I got Riley, bathed him and took Riley to the vet. When I got home, Samson was here, I left again, went to Elkin, ran some errands and when I came home, it was raining. I didn't see Samson. He wasn't here later in the evening. When I got up Sunday morning, he still wasn't here, but all the re… read more

Riley

Today I got up early, gave Riley a bath a good brushing and took him to the vet. Riley loves to ride and was very happy to do so. My vet is over 20 miles away so Riley really enjoyed the adventure. Upon arriving at the vet, Riley went woah, I have been here before and strained against his leash and tried to go the other way. I laughed as we went inside. It was time for his check up and his routine rabies shot and he also got his distemper and parvo booster. We waited a little while because… read more

My dogs

I love my dogs and would truly like to have more than I do, but then I feel guilty now that I don't always have enough time to spend with the ones that I have. Samson is so loving. He is a big beautiful dog with bad hips but he is so loving. I just can't do enough for him. He just wants to be with me all the time. Then there is Lily. We adopted her from the Animal shelter and she thinks she is a pedigree. She is definitely the hunter in the pack. She will bring in all kinds of different … read more

I love dogs

2 comments

I do love dogs! I have four and would have more if my spouse had the love for animals that I do! Two of the four were adopted at the Wilkes County Animal Shelter and the other 2 were free puppy ads. First of all, let me tell you, there are no free puppies. Lacy, our first free puppy, was adopted on Veteran's day. Her mother had been abandoned by the previous owner and her lot mate had died before the kind gent found her and she had 11 puppies of which Lacy was one. Of course after puppy shots… read more
