I'm adopting a Corgi!!

I'm picking her up next Saturday! It was a kind of spur of the moment thing. I went to PetSmart to buy Carlie some Christmas presents and came upon the same rescue that I got Carlie from. Standing there was this gorgeous and sweet Corgi that I couldn't walk away from. She's a pure bred Pembroke Welsh Corgi. Her past owner was a germaphobe and didn't like how she shed so she ended up in the rescue. She's so sweet. She's getting spayed next Friday and she's going to get a fecal test before I take her home on Saturday.

Her name right now is Dixie, but we're not sure we absolutely love that name so we might change it. Any ideas for a name?

Here are pictures of her that were posted on Petfinder:

OH congrats!! She is a cutie!!

Congrats! Bet you can't wait to bring her home! She's gorgeous!

I'm horrible at naming sorry! lol

Aww... congrats... Im so glad she will have a home to spend the Holidays in... what a great present for her

Yay another corgi on Chaz! Did her owner have her shaved? She looks bald in the photo of her on the move!

I'm with ya on the name... Dixie isn't "her". I see Saffron when I look at her, but that's just me, with my crazy name ideas!

I second Saffron! I like that name!

I'm not sure about the shaving.. we did see a little spot on her back that looked like it had been shaved, but she's definitely not bald, lol.

Saffron is a neat name...I don't know, though. I think I like people names better.

Thank you! Yeah, we were sad we couldn't take her home today, but she might have worms and I don't want Carlie to get them. So it's better this way plus we can get everything ready for her.

Saffron is a human name.. just watch a few episodes of Firefly if ya don't believe it...

(I'll keep looking for names though!)

lol, I've never heard of that show, but I believe you!

OT - it's not around anymore, the stupid TV bigwigs took it off the air. Ask anyone though, it was great. I have the entire show on DVD. The movie "Serenity" was a continuation of the show, if you remember that being in theaters awhile back. There are a bunch of lifelong, diehard Firefly fans out there... RD being one of them! (me too!)

That's so awesome! She's beautiful you could go with a seasonal name...Holly, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Joi (Joy), Faith, Angel.

Other names maybe: Chloe, Bailey, Abby, Brandy, Gracie, Bridget, Casey, Kayla, Buffy, Heidi, Isabel (Izzie, Bell), Nina, Patty, Shasta, Tonya, Sonya, Tilly, Tori, Zelda, Crystal, Crissie. Yeah that's all I can think of I always likes non people names though but I tried to find people ones for you that seemed good.

And some Welsh names (assuming that's where they are actually from): Arwen, Bronwyn.

Oo! Thanks for all the names! I like the name Holly.. I was trying to think of a good seasonal name and I really like that one. I also like Abby and Tilly. Decisions, decisions!

oo==I think she looks like a Holly!!

CONGRATS!!!! A rescue makes it even better.

I know, right? I think I'm really liking Holly..

Thank you, Smkie! Yeah, it feels so nice to rescue.

awww! she's adorable! hmmmm.. How about... Thunder... Jenna.... Kodiak.. Not sure. lol 2 of those names are for boys. x.x

I have only one thing to say:

Delighted squeal "CORGI!!!!"

That said . . . I like Holly. I always wanted to name a dog that.

Thanks! Lol, yeah I don't know about Kodiak! Cool name, but sounds manly. Jenna is a possibility.

lol Corgis are cute and I think Holly is a winner..
