Wherein I Show You 12 Pics of Smokin' Hot, Shaggy and/or Red-Headed Guys (1 of Whom Is My Dog)

I'll just come right out and say it: My Cardigan Welsh Corgi - Jon Farleigh - is a hottie (because "hot dog" just doesn't work in this situation). He makes me swoon. Here are just a few reasons why:

OK, time-out. On second thought, maybe there's really only ONE (multi-faceted) thing about him that makes me die a little inside every time I look at him. A thing so big, so undeniably HIM, that it has to stand alone. And that, my friends, is his glorious (if unconventional), silky-soft, sometimes unruly, undeniably sexy...

Fluffy Red (and white) Coat!

Still a puppy and ne'er a blade had touched his locks.

Its squish-ability calls to my wanton fingers (and face - yes, I bury it in there sometimes) like a siren song.

You know you want to lay hands on it.

And that white patch on his hip? [sigh]

White swirly on his thigh? Artistic brilliance.

Let's face it: I knew he'd be a lady-killer before he was even five months old!

Swoon!

Know what else? I'm pretty sure that Jon Farleigh is to Cardigan Welsh Corgis as this guy is to people:

I believe you've all met Prince Harry.☺

But wait! Here's a better shot...

And so you know, just like Jon Farleigh, the Prince grooms up well...

Would you look at that! He even loves (reddish) dogs!

And brownish-black dogs!

AND itty bitty hedge hogs! ♥

Come to think of it, Jon Farleigh reminds me of this guy, too...

I've become too distracted to type anything else. 

Tacky Cardigan: Wherein I Turn Corgi Anatomy Into a Workweek Metaphor

Yes, that's right. In honor of hump day (which is today, at least where I'm sitting), I have created an infographic of the workweek, except it's really a corgi.
Note: Corgi is NOT to scale. Just pretend you're mini Mike Teavee from Willy Wonka.

According to my calculations, I'll be positioning my butt on the fur slide in less than three hours. I hope it's a smooth ride!

So, tell me: What, if anything, will you do differently on Monday, knowing that you're about to enter the Cheeky Forest? Will your outlook for the week change at all? ☺

If you'd like me to consider a photo of your pet(s) for a tacky cardigan, just post it to the Facebook or Tumblr page!

Bad Nursery Songs with Jon Farleigh: Oh Where, Oh Where Has My Hiney Fur Gone?

Oh where, oh where has my hiney fur gone?

Oh where, oh where can it be?

She cut it real short...

...And now my pants are a thong.

Oh where, oh where can it be?

Maybe she took it to Goodwill.

Mom, where does good Will live?

The original song didn't end well either.

;-)

Cardigan Welsh Corgi Butt-palooza!

Have a fanny-tastic weekend, y'all!

Some Turds Stole My Funny

Yep, the turds who hacked my email and flooded my blog stats with offensive referral spam. They stole my funny. 

But I'm not gonna let them keep it. 

In the 15 months that I've posted here, this is the first time I've ever sat in front of the keyboard this late at night with nothin' - not even a bad dog joke. And that's worse than lame. Honestly, I'd like nothing more right now than to curl up on the couch and bury my hands in corgi fur. 

Like the fur on Dewi's ears.

 That's Dewi on my lap. 

Doesn't his ear look soft?

It feels soft, too. :)

Jon Farleigh's fur is also soft.

Especially those flaps behind his front legs. Oh my.

And the belly. Good heavens. 

Okay, I'm off to the couch.

The dogs, my funny and I will return tomorrow. And the turds can go flush themselves.

In the meantime, why not go feel some fur of your own (but not your own - ew)?  :)

So, What the Hay Does the Face Behind a Leonberger's Furry Butt Look Like?

Well, I'm about to show you..and the faces that belong to a few other butts you might have ID'd in yesterday's quiz. But first! A few random editorial notes:

• This is my 299th published post. I'm noting this here because I'll probably forget to mention the 300th post tomorrow, just like I forgot my 200th post, as if it matters. 
• I am honored to be counted among some of the most dog-butt-savvy people around the blog-o-sphere.
• I love Polldaddy.com almost as much as I love my Belgian waffle maker (and I, sadly, rarely use either).

And now, the most adorable Leonberger face I ever did see...

I really am as big as a lion.

Here's the Pembroke Welsh Corgi...

My butt drives people nuts.

Any questions? ;)

And the Doberman Pinscher...

Friends, this is my serious show face; when I get out of here, I
will roll in something stinky, goose my person and let my tongue hang out.

And the Afghan Hound...

Okay, so it's not really the face, but it's close.

Next up, the Holstein cow Great Dane...

Clearly NOT a cow OR a black and white (Harlequin) Great Dane
(that one wouldn't look at my camera), BUT definitely a Great Dane.

And the Australian Shepherd? Well, I don't have a picture of her face, but here's the face of a most adorable Bernese Mountain Dog puppy that was lying next to the Aussie...

A pillow would be nice.

This is the English Springer Spaniel...

I look nothing like an English Setter, actually. :)

And the French Bulldog...

For more Frenchie eye-candy, go look at Benny and Lily.

And not a donkey, but an Irish Wolfhound...

Oh wait! That's not a face!

I just wanted you to get a feel for how enormous he is. :)

Here you go...

A gentle-dog's dog 

And last, but not least, the mop rasta Komondor, er, actually, I don't have a face for that dog either, so please accept these photos of Jon Farleigh and some new friends, instead.

The Pembroke: Oh, yeah? That's nothing; I just saw Pepe wearing pink curlers. 

The Pit bull: The first one to blink has to do a 30-second down stay.

The Borzoi: Wait! I didn't quite get your name!
