Han Solo’s first Gallatin Valley Corgi Club meet up. He did really great today❤️

27/10/2023

I’d say 17 inches for Hans first snow fall is pretty epic. Albeit it’s higher than him outside. So he doesn’t really comprehend how to play in it 😂

Just stumbled upon the most ferocious fluffy river otter. I ever did see. 😂 🦦

Also made it to my first mountain top today

We found Bigfoot today. I didn’t wanna pose next to him at first. He freaked me out 😂

Alexa turn up the heat, turn off the lights, and put Twilight on. I’m ready for the foggy and rainy weekend

This sweet little mountain dog. I can’t wait to see how many hikes we will get in together over the years.

We made it to the top of our first ridge today. ❤️

Last year I learned that if you blink, fall is gone in a second. At least that what it feels like in Montana. Where in Texas it felt like the summer dragged on for months. And then sometime in November you were blessed with cooler weather that resembled fall but winter celebrations were upon you. This year I’ve been determined to enjoy every nice day we have outside because soon this trail will be covered in snow and ice.

Can you tell which dog has had 3 years of posing for first day of school photos. And the one that hasn’t? 😂 Killy started kindergarten today ❤️

14/08/2023

For the first time in 11 years. I’m celebrating my birthday alone. Chicken would of been an estimated 15/16 this birthday. I miss you so much baby girl. Happy heavenly birthday sweet girl❤️

09/08/2023

These two live to annoy the absolute crap out of each other 😂

13/07/2023

Who told this little boy he could grow so much 🥹😭He’s headed with us to explore bozeman and chase a waterfall ❤️

08/07/2023

I feel our sweet boys grown so much in the last month that he’s been ours. He’s honestly an amazing puppy. He’s still trying so hard to get Milo to love him. So far it hasn’t work and grouchy Milo has corrected him twice for doing things he didn’t enjoy. 🫠😂 but we’re pretty proud of Milo and his tolerance of him. I finally got around to doing Han Solo’s AKC name: Snapdragon’s Laugh It Up, Fluffball. ❤️ just one of Han Solo’s famous quotes 😂

This beautiful boy turned 5 months old this week 🥹

When you’re both in sync with your legs 🥹 🐾

23/06/2023

Someone’s settled into our lives like he’s always been here ❤️ Milo still hasn’t warmed up to his puppy behavior and he hides in the shadows when the puppy is awake 🫠 how long did it take for your senior babies to accept the puppy? While I’m happy he isn’t aggressive towards him (like I had worried he’d be thanks to stinky always being mean to Milo), but I’d love to see him accept the pup at some point 🥹

Most of the time the corgis flock to me. This ones flocking to Killy for the time being. Maybe it’s killys high energy and chaos that he loves following him around. Who knows 😂

08/06/2023

Meet the new corgi. His names Han Solo. And he’s got us wrapped around his paw 🥹

21/05/2023

Mom calls this princess and the pea.

10/05/2023

I’m slightly in denial that these two have gotten 5 years older 😭 Milo doesn’t even look like that skinny little red headed faces corgi in the first picture.

Almost 6 year ago I was staying with my mom after hurricane Harvey wiped out the gulf coast and we didnt have power for weeks. Stinky was having a bad flare up with his gastro issues and stress of being in the car and shuffled around. I had posted in the local NTX corgi group for vet referrals in the rockwall area. And Lisa was one of the ladies who commented and mentioned they were a vet out in forney. While it was a little further than I wanted to drive. I made her be my friend for any future emergency vet visits while visiting family. 😂

She is also a cardigan corgi breeder and shows her babies. I’ve sat on the sidelines for almost six years ogling her dogs and telling myself not now, but one day I would happily have one of my own.

We’ve considered adding one of her babies for over a year now but things weren’t lining up to work out. But this time it does. She had two accidental fluffys from this litter who needed companion homes since they cannot be shown with this gene. So after consideration we decided to add one of the boys to our pack.

Luckily Lisa is amazing and is okay with him staying a little longer with her and her crew. So we will be snagging him at about 5.5 months old. We will be snagging him while we are down in Texas for bugs graduation and seeing our families.

We’ve decided to name him Han Solo and hopefully as long as Milo does well with accepting him into the pack, we will in 8-10 months be adding on a brown Newfoundland and name him Chewbacca.

Between moving and slowly losing my original corgi crew, this is such a bright little spot in our lives. And I really think hes going to give our house a breath of fresh air we so desperately need.

Headed get Chicken Nugget from 406 Pet Crematory ❤️

Today was our first morning of not walking around looking for multiple p*e spots, puke, and p**p. First night of not having to block off any areas with rugs because she would use them as p*e pads. Bagby unplugged her heating blanket in her dog bed last night for the last time. And I still haven’t had the motivation to wash and clean her blanket she slept in on the couch yesterday. She slept in this bed every day for a good 20-22 hours. If she wasn’t here. She was attempting to trip you in the kitchen.

This loss is different than it was with Stinky. Stinks loss was like the shock of being slapped in the face. And his sudden loss left a massive hole in our home and hearts. Nuggets loss has been a gentle and slowly acceptance of loss these last few months. We’ve watched her change drastically over the last year and we’ve been able to treasure and spoil her until she was ready to go. While my heart is hurting, I know we did the right thing and let her go before she was suffering.

Thank you for all the kind words. I’ve been trying to reply to everyone but it’s a little overwhelming 🥹❤️

In East Helena — 11 Years ago I was a silly twenty year old who had a massive obsession with corgis. So when i saw a corgi pop up on the local shelters page. I immediately knew she was going to be mine. “Harley” already had a rescue tag. But I messaged every person on the shelters page and also called them for a few days to make sure they knew I wanted her and that she would have an amazing life with me. I think I harassed them enough because on Valentine’s Day I went and picked up my little burnt Chicken Nugget with my roommate Becca. And the rest is history.

She was with me during college late nights of studying, drunken parties at our apartment, through the ups and downs of college life, meeting my future husband (and instantly loving him more than me), loved Buggy as if she was raised with her, she loved stinky like she knew him her entire life, she graduated college with me, moved to Corpus Christi, tolerated psycho Milo with his endless energy, lived the epic beach dog life, moved back to houston, was there when we had Killian, helped raise Killy, and moved to Montana.

Nugget lived a full life with us and was loved until the very last moment. While I don’t know how her first 4 years of life were like. I hope she with time forgot those years and just remembered her amazing life with us.

She was a strong, independent, fearless corgi. She took no s**t from any dogs and would happily teach them their rank in the pecking order. Nugget was the queen of our household, the ruler of the roost. Milo and stinky knew never to hurt her or mess with her because she was thuggy nuggy. But these last few months her fierce spirit was dwindling and so was her body. She wouldn’t want to of lived the life that was a head of her even if we could of helped alleviate the issues. She is now doing Lord knows what with Stinky at the rainbow bridge. I don’t want to know because i am sure its chaotic and loud.

We love and miss you sweet Chicken Nugget.

These past two weeks Chicken Nugget has decreased in quality of life big time. So for now we will be enjoying every day we have ❤️ we’ve had 11 years and almost 1 month of memories together. She’s an estimated 14-15 years old. And while I’ve accepted our times coming to a close. It’s also like finishing the last chapter of a book you’ve fallen so in love with. She was my first ever corgi and also my first ever living breathing thing I had to take care of on my own at the ripe age of 20. We’ve grown a lot together in the last 11 years and I just wish she could live another 11 more.

We escaped for few days up to Glacier since we lost almost all of our snow in Helena 🫠

God gave us memory so that we might have roses in December.❤️

2 years with out our sweet stinky boy. And I’ve still miss him every day. Every time it snows we both often say, gosh stinky would be running around outside all day long and then taking some nice long naps in it if he were still here.

We miss you Stinky Allen.

Sorry we’ve been so quiet ❤️ but the Bagby crew is headed from Texas to Montana this summer. Maybe we can meet some new corgi friends up there hopefully!!

From our fellow corgi friends go fund me:

Hi, my name is Sarah. At this time I have a very sick Corgi in the Blue Pearl Speciality Hospital in Spring, Texas. He was diagnosed with bacterial pneumonia a little over a week ago and has been on strong antibiotics. He’s continued to get sicker and after visiting his vet yesterday we were sent to the emergency hospital. He’s having a really hard time breathing and was immediately put on oxygen. They are doing some testing, one is to rule out lung cancer the rest to see if he has another strain of pneumonia. Right now they have quoted me $6,000 to $8,000 dollars and that’s only to keep him in the hospital through the weekend. Gus is very loved and we really want to give him the best care possible and not have to lose him. Any help is very much appreciated and God Bless.

The hospital is Blue Pearl in Spring, Texas. ❤️

From the thoughts of Stinky Allens big ol noggin

Today would of been six years of being in remission for my sweet boy. I so wish I could have seen that nose be all black again. You were so close to it being all black ❤️

If you’re ever on the fence about professional photos. Do it. It’s so worth it down the road. ❤️ thanks for always snagging photos of my monsters 😩
