Say hi to Alfie. Pembroke Welsh Corgi. Adorably cute puppy. He’s been with us for a few days now and is a little more comfortable with the environment. Happily chewing on the mock bone Vyanne got him.

My mom and brother are here for a visit. Heh, the house was quiet for a week and now it’s become quite lively again. Vyanne was looking online for a Corgi breeder and there was one in the Dandenongs that had a couple of pups left for sale. We saw a picture of it when it was a few weeks old and just decided to have a look at them. I wasn’t really thinking about it but when we got to the breeder’s place, it was love at first sight. You won’t get anything more adorable than looking at puppies play with each other.

After some brief questions with the breeder regarding Corgis, we decided to take the red and white one home. He wasn’t thinking about it much but after a couple of minutes in the car, started to get a little distressed. Either he was worried he was leaving his home or that it was getting carsick. Poor dog threw up his lunch halfway through the trip (it’s quite a long way from the Dandenongs to where we stay). The first night was probably a little miserable for him as we kept him in the internal courtyard but it was raining quite a bit. Had a box for him to sleep in but it got rather wet. We gradually moved him indoors as we slowly toilet trained him to do his daily business in the right spots. Had to read up on this online to get a better idea on what needed to be done. It’s really as much a learning experience for us as it is for Alfie as we are all trying to figure each other out. Glad that mom’s here. Heh, she’s trying to get used to the Melbourne cold, and the weather’s been quite horrible. It’s rained every single day this past week, and there hasn’t been so much rain in Melbourne for the past 13 years.

Probably a little over summarised, but much has happened over the last week and I’m rather tired out. Just wanted to put up a post to get the gist of things. Off to bed now.
