About Me

Born on a farm near Sweetwater, Tenn., I moved to Knoxville at the tender age of 14 weeks. I'm a Pembroke Welsh Corgi, and, yes, that's the type of dog the Queen has. I'm much cooler than her dogs, though. I bet they bark with a funny accent or call an elevator a "lift" or something like that.

I enjoy a good life, eating and sleeping and chewing lots of tasty rawhide things. I'm a proud graduate of Petsmart's puppy, intermediate, and advanced obedience courses. Next up is the AKC's Canine Good Citizen test. I've also done an introductory course in agility training. I greatly enjoy running through tunnels and running up and down the A-frame.

My Interests

Barking, going to Petsmart, herding other animals (especially Pigger!), watching birds, going to the dog park, doing my flying squirrel impersonation, chasing crickets in the backyard, running up and down the A-frame on the agility course, pretending like I'm a pathetic puppy who never gets fed so that everyone will give me people food

I'd like to meet:

Being of Welsh origin, I would love to meet some of our national heroes ... Catherine Zeta Jones, Timothy Dalton, the woman who sang "Total Eclipse of the Heart," and, of course, Tom Jones.

Music:

I like to bark along with the noises of the God Machine on the Daily Show.

Movies:

I love the Harry Potter movies. How awesome would it be to live at Hogwarts with all of those owls flying all over the place?

Television:

24 ... how could you not love Jack Bauer? I also like The Office. I wonder if Jim has a dog... ..

Books:

I'm more of a newspaper gal. They're fun to shred.

Heroes:

Dogs who can jump on their owners' beds. It's so far up there. And my legs are so stumpy ...
