Five Corgi Puppies Dove Into the Leaf Pile and Vanished Almost Completely

AI imagecorgiautumn leavesporch

Five tricolor puppies have burrowed into a heap of crunchy orange and brown leaves, with ears tilted and bright eyes peering out at all angles. A few tumble over each other, one looks up from the front with a wide gaze, and the rest bunch together in a fuzzy knot. A porch with a watering can, a wicker basket, and a pair of boots sits behind them.

Leaf piles are a joy for puppies, but a few precautions go a long way. Wet leaves can hide mold, and some seeds and nuts, like acorns, are harmful if chewed. Check the pile before play and discourage eating leaves, which can upset a puppy's stomach. After playtime, check coats for burrs and sticks.

Corgis are alert, social, and quick to learn, and autumn can be a great time to take them for walks in cooler weather. Because of their short legs, they may tire sooner than a leggy breed, so keep outings short for young pups and let them rest. Their thick double coat sheds more in fall, so regular brushing is helpful. Your vet can advise on exercise for a growing puppy.

Right now, five leaves-covered puppies are all wiggle and no worry, and the crunch under their paws is the soundtrack of the afternoon. Nobody has found the bottom of the pile yet.
