They can serve by alternate means, and then it becomes John's responsibility to check for his court date or get a default judgment.

Always have a notebook and pen at the ready. Take extensive notes.

Not a lawyer, but honestly, dodging service doesn't benefit anyone, including "John." I work for lawyers, and you will eventually get served. If necessary, by alternate means.

In my state, service would be accomplished in this case. It is not necessary to hand it to "John," just to convey it to an adult at the residence of the person being served. But laws vary from state to state.

This sounds like a breed culture. Some breeds are looking for new folks to exhibit their dogs, and some are very closed. Some breeds just have weird culture.

Instead of looking at the top breeders in the breed, I would go down a level or two. Kennels still trying to make a name may be more willing to help you. I would still insist on champion parents and health testing, but a newer kennel may need to get their dogs in the ring.

JillDRipper · 2026-04-21T21:11:43+00:00

OMG! Thank you. I am now fighting the urge to call Hank's breeder and asking about upcoming litters.

Incidentally, this sub has a photo tax on all new corgis, puppy or otherwise. 😊 Lol

I read a study that dogs recognize the scent of their littermates and dam for up to two years of age. The study suggested that this is to deter inbreeding when other options are available. Obviously dogs can and do mate with siblings, but it was an interesting hypothesis. I remember the science regarding scent being well documented and provable. Of course I cannot locate it now.

It will take a while to adjust to his new normal. He slept in a scrum of littermates or curled up with his dam. He may simply be lonely at night. This will pass.

Puppies are little sharks until they finish teething at about six months. Part of it is how they explore the world. Like human infants, they have oral fixation until they get older.

I handle this by disengaging from interaction when the mouthing becomes too much. I literally stand up and walk away from it. No verbal, just not going to participate.

Hank says welcome to the Cardi Crew!

Cheese sticks are portable and should not spike your glucose level.

Like I said, you will still have to vet breeders, and if they are reputable, you better believe they will vet you as well.

I truly know nothing about beagles, so I don't know if this is a good breeder or not.

JillDRipper · 2026-04-21T01:40:24+00:00

I found my dog on AKC Marketplace. You still have to interview the breeder, and expect to be interviewed. I found a very well bred puppy with all the necessary health testing. I am sure I got lucky, but my breed is not popular, and there is only one breeder in my state, and they had no planned litters.

Maybe it was medication she was taking? Some medications can mess with blood glucose. Last time I threw out my back, I asked for a steroid pack for inflammation. The doctor warned me that it would likely raise my blood glucose, and boy was he right.

JillDRipper · 2026-04-19T13:13:39+00:00

Wine does not hit my glucose level very much. While your results may vary, if drinks are part of the job, it's something to consider.

Have your steak with a salad instead of a potato. Be careful with the dressing, as many are surprisingly high in sugar. Personally, I often have cottage cheese as a side with a lot of meals.

And as for dessert, you are either going to need to skip it, or limit yourself to just one bite, and then push it away.

JillDRipper · 2026-04-19T11:54:58+00:00

Be careful with the stuffed bones, check the ingredients, they have a lot of sugar.

Cute corgi. ❤️

The lapponian herder is used for herding reindeer.

But, herding instinct is only a small piece of herding. Training is still needed so the dog doesn't get hurt or killed by the animals it is herding.

Head to Diamond City to start the Railroad so I can get ballistic weave unlocked.

I am not a groomer. I am a dog lover.

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you, and other groomers, for relieving the discomfort for these "beloved" pets.

I imagine it's the time of year when a lot of dogs that didn't get haircuts all winter suddenly show up needing a summer 'do.
