Corgis

With all the excitement of this week — Malachy the Peke and Westminster fever, Uggie's big Golden Collar win — we're feeling a little hungover today. In fact, we might just take a cue from Rocco, the incredibly sad little Frenchie, and crank up the Adele while we cry in the corner.

Lest you think we want you to sit around and think dark thoughts for the rest of the weekend, here's an insanely cute corgi pup showing a broom who's boss, after the break.

If the Puppy Bowl isn't providing you with enough adorable dog/sports action, I've got just the thing for you! These tetherball-playing Corgis are unbearably cute. And they've got stamina! Just when you think they're pooped out, they get a second wind, and the game continues. Watch and learn.

Reader samshrew dishes about the raw sweetness of Sushi for our Pet Profiles series. Chronicle your own pet tales in our Pet Profiles group!

PetSugar: When did you get your dog and what is her breed?
samshrew: We found Sushi from a newspaper ad. She came from a litter of seven.  She is 1/2 Corgi and half American Eskimo. She was born on April of 2008 and we picked her up in June of 2008.

PetSugar: What's your daily doggie routine?
samshrew:  Sushi's owner had named her "Lazy" and the name is apt. She spends large portions of everyday sleeping and will generally not get out of bed in the morning until you tell her to. Sushi receives 2-3 walks per day. We have a dog walker that comes during the weekdays to walk her around mid-day. When she is not being walked Sushi goes from room to room sleeping and waiting for someone to give her a snack. Typically we spend a part of the evening playing with her and teaching her new tricks. (She recently FINALLY learned "roll over").

Corgis are super cute regardless and this one doesn't let those short legs stand in the way of dancer dreams. Check out this pup's dancing talents . . . the motivation? He did it all for the kibble, folks, it's all for the kibble.

Queen Elizabeth II met a charming Corgi while visiting a train station in Wales this week, and he certainly wasn't shy about bowing (or sniffing?!) her majesty's shiny shoes.

Coincidentally, Elizabeth is famous for her love of the breed. She has her own pack that's "known to have the run of Buckingham Palace." They were an integral — and adorable — part of the 2006 historic flick The Queen, which chronicles the monarch's life.
