For all those corgi fans, there is an event just for you – Nor Cal Corgi Con – Fall Edition 2017! Yes, you read correctly, this is a corgi con! The con lets corgi owners celebrate their furry friends, connect with each other, and at the same time raises funds for charities like Queen’s Best Stumpy Dog Rescue.

The event occurs twice a year in June and October. What started as an informal get-together, has gained such popularity that it now includes over 900 corgis! The dogs even have a con schedule to keep them busy throughout the day.

They set aside time for owners to shop for some merchandise in which the proceeds go to a designated charity. They ‘attempt’ a group photo, which is hilarious. Can you imagine being surrounded by a bunch of corgis and trying to get them to all stay still for a group photo? They also hold an agility course, costume contest, and races. What a fun way to get together with folks who appreciate these adorable furballs and do a little bit of good in the process!

Be prepared for some cuteness overload as you look at some of the Instagram posts from the event this past summer.
