Grady, the Dog of the Day
Name: Grady
Age: One year old
Gender: Male Breed: Pembroke Welsh Corgi
Home: Northern California, USA
 
   This is Grady, better known as Goobie to his friends and admirers. He's a one-year old Pembroke, and we like to joke that he looks like he is always wearing black eye liner. Goob is a herding dog, so he likes to follow you around as you move the sprinkler or when you get his leash to take him on a Goobie Walk. Of course, being short and long, he doesn't really manage to herd so much as trip you. And he's fast, so you can't ever tell what direction he's going to come from.

    Goobie enjoys his Goobie Snaks, Goobie Walks in the park and around the neighborhood and visits to my grandparents house, where he plays with his friend Chloe, the Rottweiler mix. They get on well, and they run around and sniff things and play wrestling games until Chloe decides she can't trip over him anymore and then it's time to go home.

    Grady is the sweetest tempered little dog I've probably ever met. His ears vibrate when he's listening really hard and when you speak to him, he kind of tilts his head like, "Are you talking to me?" I couldn't ever have any other breed of dog after having a corgi, they're like constant little balls of sunshine that brighten your day.
