The Pacific Northwest Corgi Picnic (150+ Corgis!)

Devyn, Queen of all Corgis, overseeing the festivities

August 2nd was the Annual Pacific Northwest Corgi Picnic and this year, an estimated 150+ corgis and their humans attended.

 

In attendance were corgis of all shapes, sizes, colors, and ages.

 

Even non-corgis had the privilege to attend (if they dared).

Obviously he wishes he were a corgi

 

Anyone in need of a corgi fix certainly got their fill today!

Odin, as in Odin the Corgi

 

Corgi smiles and derpy faces roamed the grounds in droves.

The mighty Thor!

 

And with those smiles came the corgi butts

Some corgis made new friends

Some of which will undoubtedly last a lifetime.

I am continuously learning from dogs, and observing the corgis today has pointed out some things I feel I should share so that everyone may know more about Corgwn:

Corgi fur varies a great deal in length and color.
There’s the traditional length

The puffier ones

And the fluffies!

 

Pembrokes come in red and white

and tricolor

 

but Cardis, they have many more color options!

The beautiful Sheldon!

 

Some corgis are lap dogs

Vincent – the one and only (hopefully) corgi with cropped ears (he came like that when he was lovingly rescued)

Others require a chair of their own

 

Most corgis walk

A lot of corgis run

Some have their own set of wheels

Still others demand to be carried, [please]

 

Corgis can be very social and playful

Corgis may prefer to roam with their own

Sometimes, corgi prefer to relax

Or maybe they’d rather be alone

Elphaba is a very loyal service dog

 

Some corgis enjoy water

Some REALLY enjoy water

But there are corgis that heartily judge those who find water to be anything but despicable

If looks could kill…

 

Some corgis want to get to know their fellow corgis

Others try to figure out these non-corgi-but-not-quite-human creatures

Some would just really love to be pet all day long

 

But of course, one thing about corgis has always been true, always will be true, and is simply irrefutable:

 

Corgis love to eat.

 

 

Slowly, the corgi clan became dirty, wet, and just plain tuckered out, and eventually all went on their merry corgi way.

A HUGE thanks to Kathy, Leo and their corgi family for hosting this magnificent event!

The facts:

Unless otherwise stated, all pictures were taken and belong to me, Lindsay Hayward. If you would like to use these pictures for your own purposes, I would love to share! Please email me just to let me know, and I may have a better version for your usage (many of these can be cropped differently, so if you’re partially in it now, I may have the original with you all in!). My email address is DevyntheCorgi@icloud.com or just leave a comment! Please tell me which pup is yours; I’d love to put a name to these faces! I love to nerd out about corgis (duh), so feel free to do the same!
