Corgi Gifts Blanket: Life Is Better With a Corgi

Corgi Gifts Blanket shows a smiling corgi in the middle of a grid of printed sayings, and each saying is a small joke about life with the breed. “Happiness is a Corgi smile” and “Talk Corgis to me” are the lines that make the people who own one laugh first. It is a cheerful way to say you already know what your dog is thinking.

A closer look at the print

The centerpiece is a cream and tan corgi with big upright ears and an open-mouthed grin, framed by a ring of paw prints and a bouquet of pink, blue and yellow flowers. Around it, the sayings sit in boxes of brown, tan and cream, so the whole layout feels like a patchwork quilt. Each box uses a different lettering style, from bold block caps to loose script.

The jokes cover the breed's habits. “Never stand between a girl and her Corgi” and “Sorry I have plans with my Corgi” poke fun at devotion, while “I'm not barking I'm explaining why I'm right” plays on the breed's famously vocal opinions. A corgi silhouette and a corgi in a straw hat add more personality, and the shapes of the dogs are easy to spot even from across the room.

Who will love it

The people who get the most out of this blanket are corgi owners, especially women who call themselves a dog mom. They will spot the stubby legs and the tail in the bottom corner before they read a single line. Friends who like to tease a corgi-obsessed buddy will get the joke too.

This blanket fits a movie night on the sofa with a corgi tucked against your side, or a quiet afternoon reading with the print facing out. Owners who bring their dog to the park can drape it over a chair while they chat with other corgi people.

Occasions and picks

It suits birthdays, holiday gift swaps and a thank-you for the friend who pet-sits your corgi. A corgi owner moving into a new apartment would appreciate it as a housewarming gift, too. Choose between the fleece throw, the sherpa throw, or the larger fleece and sherpa blankets, depending on how much room you want to wrap up in.
