Cozy Mysteries Featuring Corgis

Welcome aboard, train wreck.

If you follow me on social media, you already know. I am obsessed with corgis. Especially my Lucy Loo. I don’t know what it is about these little furry bread loaves but I just love their sweet little faces and stumpy legs and wiggly butts.

If this is your first time here, welcome aboard, train wreck. Glad to have you here. If this isn’t your first time here, I’m still glad to have you. Please like, comment, share, and subscribe. My goal is to have five hundred subscribers by the end of the year. I think we can make that happen.

Please consider donating to help keep this going. $1 and I’ll ask you what your favorite book is so we can talk about it. $5 and I’ll write a review of a book you suggest. $10 and I’ll write a blog suggested by you.

Why not combine my love for cozy mysteries and corgis? Thankfully, several authors are one step ahead of me.

Cozy Corgi Mysteries (23 book series)

by Mildred Abbott

Beautiful mountains, beautiful boutiques, delectable pastries, a nice bookshop… and murder in Estes Park, Colorado. Winifred Page and her corgi Watson relocate to Estes Park in order to reset their lives. Fred is going to establish her dream bookstore, and the only difficulties she foresees are adapting to small-town life, dealing with visitors, and staying close to her adoring mother, Phyllis, and her hippie stepfather, Barry. Fred anticipates dust bunnies and spiders when she walks inside her soon-to-be-bookshop for the first time, not a dead corpse in the upper kitchen. Barry is an easy target for the local cops. Fred dons her detective hat, and with Watson at her side, she explores her new town and meets her fellow merchants, determined to establish eccentric Barry’s innocence of murder. Is it possible that one of her pleasant neighbors is the genuine bad guy? What would be the motivation for assassinating the proprietor of the Sinful Bites candy store? Fred’s discoveries cause her to clash with the local police sergeant, jeopardizing her comfortable future in Estes. With the snow pouring outside, Fred wants nothing more than to cozy up by the fire with a nice book and Watson at her feet. But before she can start her new life and put her bookstore plans into action, Fred and Watson must solve a mystery… (A recipe for scrumptious lemon bars is included in this gourmet cozy mystery.)

To capture a murderer, Emma and Oliver will have to combine their investigative abilities.

Mrs. Murphy (30 book series)

by Rita Mae Brown

Mrs. Murphy’s human companion, Mary Minor “Harry” Haristeen, may perish as a result of her curiosity. Small communities are like family in that everyone lives near by…and everyone has secrets. Crozet, Virginia, seems to be a normal tiny town—until its secrets erupt in murder. Mary Minor “Harry” Haristeen, Crozet’s thirty-something postmistress, owns a tiger cat (Mrs. Murphy) and a Welsh Corgi (Tucker), is divorcing, and has a horrible habit of reading postcards that aren’t intended to her. When the residents of Crozet begin to be slaughtered, Harry recalls that each of them was given a card with a gravestone on the front and the inscription “Wish you were here” on the reverse. Mrs. Murphy and Tucker begin sniffing out clues to defend their human acquaintance. Meanwhile, Harry is doing her own inquiry, completely oblivious to the fact that her dogs are a step ahead of her. If only Mrs. Murphy could inform her in some way, Harry may be able to discover the murderer before the murder—and before she ends up on the killer’s mailing list.

With its beautiful flowers and lush foliage, the Enchanted Garden behind Elliana Allbright’s perfume store attracts visitors of all ages. When the enchanted tranquility is disturbed, it’s up to Ellie to track out the assailant.

Since opening Scents & Nonsense, a custom-made-perfume shop in Poppyville, California, Ellie’s life has expanded. Her ability to work with scents and plant essences, some of which she grows herself, seems almost miraculous. Her fragrances have the ability to elicit emotions, effect change, or just make people happy. Customers are coming to her shop to purchase her items or just to relax in her lovely garden, drink tea, and eat baked cookies.

When she discovers that her part-time helper Josie is dating her ex, she senses danger. Before she can warn the young lady about his seductions, she discovers Josie dead in the Enchanted Garden. Now that Ellie is the leading suspect in Josie’s murder, she must look for the true perpetrator in Josie’s past—because stopping this crisis in its tracks will require a miracle….

Well, there they are. Enough corgi mysteries to help get you through hours at the dog park. And if you listen to the audiobooks, you’ll get those corgi stumpers going for chapters.
