Tuesdays With Tag - Patriotic Pups...

Hi, Everybody!

In honor of our Nation's 239th Birthday celebration, I'm gonna share

a few pictures of patriotic Corgis with you. Mom saved these for me and

 I think you're really gonna love 'em. These Corgis are our FB friends, too!

This is Bob Corgi of Bob & Lola Corgi fame. He's a handsome guy, and is Lola's better half. They are pretty famous on Facebook, so you might want to go and check out their page. Lola is a beautiful gal, and these guys are really photogenic, no matter what the holiday.

You can check out their CorgEcards and other Corgi-related items at (Obsessive Corgi Designs) at CafePress. You can see more of Christopher's Corgi images at Christopher Brock Photography.

These three Corgis are Bruiser, Lily and Gus. Their mom, Liz is one of Mom's friends on Facebook, and she gets the greatest pictures of these three! Don't you just love Gus' smile?

If you "friend" their mom on Facebook, you'll get to see lots more pictures of them and read all about their adventures. People think Miss Liz should put together a book using all the short stories she has written about them. We agree!

Of course, no patriotic Corgi array would be complete without the famous Spark Plug. His dad, Bob likes takin' pictures of him and his brother, Trotter. They're a real patriotic family - and they all love bacon. Doesn't get better than that!

I met Spark Plug in person when I was just a kid. He lives just up the highway from us, near Sarasota. He and his dad, and now Trotter, help raise money for a cause near and dear to all Corgi lovers called "CorgiAid". They are organizers of the annual Florida Corgi Picnic, too.

Mom collects ATC (artist tradin' cards) and she really likes this one by Marty Helgeson. I'd be the drummer, you know! I even bet that Quinn would be holdin' the flag to march next to me!

Mom also loves everythin' "Corgi" that Miss Vanessa Keys creates - like this flag face pup. This is a link to her FaceBook page where you can see more of her artwork, and her shop where you can purchase her sweet designs.

When Mom was gettin' these images, she saw that someone had pinned this picture of Fezzik on Pinterest. It's been shared many times around the Internet. I decided that he should be included here today because he's wearin' a blue tie...and because he was such a cool guy.

Mom said it's nice that her Fezzie lives on and continues to make other people smile. It made her smile, too.

I hope everybody has a nice holiday weekend. We did, too, but Mom didn't carry her camera around to document it. She just spent the weekend chillin' and bein' gratefully patriotic. Isn't that what it's all about?

I'll see you again in seven! 'til then...
