The First Dog of California is sharing the limelight and perhaps his food bowl as Gov. Jerry Brown introduces a new pup in his family.
Colusa “Lucy” Brown now joins big brother Sutter Brown. The two-month-old was introduced on Sutter’s Twitter page.
Tim Matieson has been breeding the fox-like dogs for nearly 50 years and says the addition to the Brown family is a win for the breed and the state.
“Corgi’s are like potato chips. You know, if you have one, you can’t have just one corgi. You have to have two,” he said.
According to longtime owners like Joan Gibson Reid, there may be one big reason leaders like the governor and Queen Elizabeth II keep calm and corgi on with these Olympic quality shedders.
“They usually agree with whatever you say and I think probably the Governor appreciates that,” she said.
Lucy’s brother’s Facebook page may offer a few hints of what’s ahead for her—conservation efforts, committee meetings, and lobbying for a few belly rubs.
Grrr ...
Ah...the obligatory photo-op pet.
He should have kept that rattlesnake he butchered a couple weeks ago, instead.
Truth in advertising.
How much water usage increase will that be?
Jerry is certainly reptilian, if anything. I’m not sure I want to be reminded what the dog’s name stands for ... Colusa.
The state is going to hell in a hand-basket, and this is what Jerry is up to.
It sure is great to have Democrat leadership. /s
We might be better run if we let one of the corgis sit at the governor’s desk and let Jerry sit on the rug and lick himself.
I’d be thinking collusion every time I saw her.
The first Google hit was Colusa County Rabies Clinic.
How apropos.
Colusa and Sutter are the names of two counties in the state.
Colusa does not have Corgi ears .... right at the end of the story, they said she was a Corgi/Border Collie mix or a Borgi. Since the guy they got her from breeds Corgis, this must be a deliberate “designer” or “boutique” dog .... a hybrid. “Borgi” is on the list.

hope Jer Jer is using bottled water for the pup.
Corgi BC mix could probably be ten IQ points above Moonbeam.
