    Gluten Free

    Have you seen a doctor yet about it? It might be worth trying an allergy test, but if you try that definitely make sure that the allergist is legit. I never imagined I had a gluten problem, until I got a test done and there it was. I will say I felt better within a day or two, and pretty much...

    Education

    I went to "pre-pre" school, preschool and kindergarten at a private school. Then first grade on I went to a public school. They were all California "distinguished" schools. I left high school at 16 because I hated it and started community collage (I technically dropped out of high school since I...

    Dog wheelchairs

    Does anyone have experience with living with a dog in a wheelchair? My dog that stayed with my parents when I moved-out woke-up five days ago, walked three steps and fell over screaming. He was paralyzed. A vet did perform back surgery (not sure what they did since I am hearing this information...

    Would you eat Cuy (Guinea Pig)?

    Yep, pretty much how I feel. I don't judge anyone for trying it at a restaurant though. I will admit that I ate dog once in China. I lived in an extremely poor area and was invited to an old woman's house. She had very little money and had bought dog meat because it was winter and it is supposed...

    How often do you cut nails?

    Avdotya will let me pretty much do anything to her, but she seems to ware her nails down to where I really only have to cut them when the weather gets bad and we can't go for a walk. Chekhov though :yikes: He lives up to the corgi reputation of a groomers nightmare. We take him to the groomer...

    2o-2o Vs Running contacts, effect on structure?

    I do running contacts with Chekhov because of his structure. They are faster (although that isn't why I do them), but I am constantly having to school them so he doesn't try to speed up the process more by just flying over the contact zone.

    The Flu Shot...

    I haven't yet, but I am going to get it. My seizure medicine is still not properly adjusted, and getting sick is a pretty big trigger and anything to lessen the risk is worth it for me. I have never had it but the only vaccine I have ever had a reaction to was either rabies or Japanese...

    A question about eggs...

    Not that this helps any, but if you ever get the chance try duck eggs. We used to have Khaki Campbells and their eggs were amazing. They have a more intense flavor than chicken eggs and I would not recommend you hard boil them.

    For all you Corgi people

    Chekhov alert barks, but only when there is someone at the door/ really loud noises. He also barks at me when he gets bored in agility or I make a mistake. He whines a lot and is generally demanding when he wants something. He has also started to alert to my seizures by whining and jumping on my...

    This is what I ate today...

    This morning I had gluten free raison "bran" muffins that I made last night, and later today I am going to make curry quinoa with chickpeas, kale, and whatever other vegetables I feel like throwing in.

    2013 Official Chaz Weight Loss Challenge

    I'd like to join in too. I'm 5'3" and used to be 110 pounds, and then graduate school hit. I am now up to 126 and would like to get back down to at least 115. I am doing a dual PhD so I don't have time to go to the gym with my schedule, but I walk 3-9 miles to and from school everyday. I was...

    Ended my Christmas in tears

    I'm sorry you are going through this. I struggled with my weight for years and eventually was able to get it under control. I completely understand the frustration of not being able to lose weight no matter what you try. I now have to eat gluten free for medical issues. I have gluten intolerance...

    Although I hope to have more breeds in the future, If I could only have one breed it would be Cardigan Corgis for sure.

    Those of you with/considering Masters or Doctorate Degrees

    I have my BA in English, my MA in Folklore, and I am now in the middle of getting a dual PhD in Folklore and Anthropology with an emphasis in China. I completed my MA without any debt, and could have gotten a job very easily, however I have wanted a PhD since I was six, so onward I went. The...

    Ever teach your dog something that wasn't such a great idea?

    Not quite me training the dogs, but because I did a lot of my training in the living room near the bird cage, my African Grey learned he could call the dogs over, tell them to sit, and then throw food at them. I made the mistake of laughing the first time. You would be amazed at how much super...

    Still pondering small breeds...

    I know they are bigger than what you were looking for, but my lighter boned Cardi fits everything else you want. He's about 25 lbs for reference and a little bit leggier and sportier than some you see. But he is very drivey, and he's done very well in agility, but has an off switch at home. He...

    Recommendations for my bro please

    Corgi's of both variety are well known to be snarky and dog reactive. My female cannot live with another female dog, she will fight them. My fiance had to re-home his pug because they fought to the point of drawing blood at least once a week. My cardi boy is more laid back, but he is still only...
