Waffles Helped With the Knitting and Got Tangled in It

AI imagecorgiyarnknitting basket

A red and white Corgi sits with a wide, cheerful smile, wrapped in loops of cream yarn that circle his chest and trail across the floor. A wicker basket lies on its side next to him, and spools of wool have rolled out in every direction. His big pointed ears are perked up and his eyes shine in warm evening light. A sofa, a plant and a rumpled blanket fill the room behind him.

Corgis are cheerful, intelligent herding dogs that were bred in Wales to nip at the heels of cattle. They are energetic and love to be involved in whatever the family is doing, so a knitting project is simply another invitation. Yarn is a danger if swallowed, because a long string can cause a blockage that needs a vet, so keep supplies in a closed box and call your vet if you suspect he ate some. Corgis can also gain weight easily, which can strain their long backs.

Offering a snuffle mat, a puzzle toy or a good run helps burn off the energy. Tug toys give them a legal outlet for that herding instinct.

He looks so pleased that it is almost impossible to scold him. We might call him Waffles, and Waffles clearly believes the sweater was made for him. Corgis are famous for their cheerful grins, and Waffles has a great one.
