I see no difference

A tricolor corgi sploots with his bum towards the camera and his toes sticking out behind.

Why has my perfect foster son not received any adoption applications? If you live in Colorado and need Corgi in your life, he will bring you joy every single day. His name is Copper! Adoptable Dogs | Corgisandfriends share.google/nlvXhJ5K0pFQ...

I just got my first foster dog and did not anticipate the level to which my brain has absolutely declared "f work, just dog" Like, I get it now that my friend quit work to just... dog But look at him

A tricolor corgi lays across as woman's lap, halfway belly up, feet pointing towards the viewer. The dog has a little smile. The woman is skritching his belly with one hand. It is approximately 1000 degrees but he still wants snugs!

Farewell, Tui, my little shining star.

A very old tricolor corgi sheltie mix dog is laying on the living room floor, looking at the camera. She was the very best of dogs.

My girl is 15 years old, has a house full of beds, and she has absolutely no interest in sleeping on any of them. I bought her a foam bathmat and sometimes she will deign to rest upon it.

A tricolor corgi sheltie mix dog lays with her back to the camera. She is in a bedroom. Her head and shoulders rest on a flat gray bathmat, her back end is on the carpet. In the background is a pile of beds and sleeping options she has rejected.

I highly recommend an inflatable donut as an alternative. Tui got used to it quick after her toe amputation, and even liked it as a portable bolster.

Aww death by potat

A tricolor corgi sheltie mix dog lays on the linoleum of a utility room. A closed door is behind her and she is laying against it. There are wood cabinets to the left and a washer on the right. She is laying very flat because she is bored.

This cat popped by my house yesterday and I can't stop thinking about him. I am pretty sure he's cast some kind of enchantment on me. Like, maximum orange power here. (Per his tags, he is named Garfield and/or Pumpkin.)

A super gorgeous, small orange tabby cat stands on a windowsill outside a brick house. The cat is medium fluffy, stripéd, and his fluffy tail is held in a wavy fashion. The cat appears both ordinary and magical.

I worked in Antarctica and these auroras are better than any I'd seen there! Truly a special night.

Oh God that's one of my nicknames for my dog She is a loaf and a bébé

A tricolor corgi sheltie mix dog stands on the grass with a brown fence behind her. She is very rectangular and loaflike. A burnt loaf. She is elderly but also a baby.

We call it de-wooling season here (since I spin my own yarn, including my shelticorg's on occasion.)

A tricolor corgi-sheltie mix dog gazes at the camera. On her head rests a skein of yarn spun from her own buttwool. It looks kinda like she's got braids. She is the cutest dog in the world!

Tui's ready too!

Tui, a tricolor corgi sheltie mix dog, stands uncertainly wearing a green and brown dirndl, with a white apron. She has a green cap with yellow braids. She's not super keen, but is definitely super cute.

laurasita@laurasita· Sep 25

Tui just chillin, I love her fluffy neck.

A tricolor corgi sheltie mix dog lays on her side on a blue pattern rug. Her back is to the viewer. Her back and head are black, her ears are brown and pointing backwards, and she has a big fluffy white neck. Dog toys and other living room furniture is in the background.

Tui knows! (Corgi x sheltie)

Yeah I did, it was great

I haven't been able to leave the house for a month

A tricolor corgi sheltie mix dog lays in front of the entryway of a small house. She is laying on her side with her feet towards the viewer. Her head is to the left and it is up, and she looks at the viewer as if to say, "you ain't going nowhere nohow"

My potat has not blown last year's winter coat yet, but her fluff keeps intensifying so I think we're on the verge of a woolsplosion

The fluffy halo of dogwool on my antique spinning wheel

Silver-grey yarn made from dog hair is draped over the wheel part of a blue spinning wheel. The light is behind the wheel so you can see the fluffy halo on the yarn.

It's a corgi corg world, we're just living in it

laurasita@laurasita· May 29

I had a roommate who had a golden retriever corgi mix and he was seriously just like that. Absolutely the best personality, too. (I have a sheltie-corgi and she is incredible, pic included because NO ONE CAN RESIST THE TUI!) It's such a crap shoot with corgi mixes, though.

A tricolor sheltie corgi mix dog faces the camera. She has a long muzzle and her face has a white stripe, and her ears are perky. She has a white chest and white feet, her face is black, tan and white and her back is black. Her eyes are very dark brown and she looks like she has Cleopatra eyeliner. She is wearing black, purple and blue fairy wings and a white tulle skirt. You can see her black tail with a white tail-tip. She is standing on pavement with grass to either side.

laurasita@laurasita· May 24

My Tui has been doing that too.
