2023 BMDCA ALPENHORN SENIOR GALLERY
Jada is now over 11 years old. I'm very grateful to Ruth and Nick (and Malissa) for helping us create her. Jada is spunky and she lives up to her pet name of "Bug". She loves to let you know when she wants something, especially treats. Jada loves to play with her kong in the backyard and bounce around when we go for a walk. We continue to enjoy her senior years.
Rocky Creek Spirit in the Sky
Our sassy singleton, Skye, is approaching her 12th birthday. What a blessing! There is never a dull or quiet moment with Skye around. She is still doing quite well and we look forward to celebrating her big 12th birthday.
Like all berners do, James came into my life and it has never been the same since. He came to me as an unruly overweight 4yr old and turned into the most loving, well mannered, athletic boy! He spends his retirement rolling in the grass, keeping the yard safe, and sleeping! He may not have been a show/sport dog, but he brought me into the world of dogs and I will always thank him for that!

I am blessed to have Mozzie still with me as an 11 year old. He's my first performance dog, and he's titled in five different sports, including finishing his NW2 and SWE titles during this year. Even though he is now retired from trialing, he still goes to scent work class each week because he loves it so much. I think it's keeping his brain active and helps provide him a high quality of life.

Breeze was a very special girl. She had a sweet disposition and was so gentle with people. Winter was her favorite time. She loved romping and playing in the snow. It was hard to get her to come in the house. She holds a special place in our hearts.
Ch Hickory's Hidden Throwback to the Bay
Owner: Elicia and David Leudemann and Amy Tucker
Blanket is the love of our lives. This gentle giant is not just the George Clooney of dogs, but he is the Einstein and Mother Theresa, as well. We loved this puppy the day we met, and as an old man, he is burned into our hearts forever. 11.5 years down, we pray for many more to go. He is our blessing, our strength, our peace and our love.
HICKORY'S VIEW OF THE BAY
Owner: Jeannie & Bill Bussey and Amy Tucker
Vista lights up our lives. It's a joy to watch her bounce and prance like a puppy. She may be 11.5 but she's still acts and has the heart of a young dog. She zooms around the yard trying to get us to chase her. She loves to snuggle and hog the bed! Thank you Amy for allowing this angel share to our lives!
Dylan has been a gift to us each day. We are blessed to have him by our side. He loves to meet new friends, take road trips, explore the country, parks, and adventurous activities! Dylan is especially excited when the grandchildren come to visit. We are so blessed to have a gentle affectionate Velcro doggie by our side each day. Thank you, Dylan, for completing our lives!!

Raevyn is such an amazing companion. The adventures we have shared and continue to share fill my heart. Her zest for life is unstoppable and she has brought so much joy to my world.
Hickory's Not Playing By the Rules
Owner: Ann Weibzhl and Amy Tucker
Denali may be slowing down with age but her personality is still bigger than ever. She is greatly loved and we treasure every day.

Zurri is still happily the Queen of the house. She hogs the bed, she demands her meals and barks whenever she wants for whatever she wants. Every day is a blessing and we hope for many more. We love our girl!
Trullis Playing for Keeps at Castlehill CGC CD RE HCT-S.
Presley was my once in a lifetime companion. He did everything I asked of him, and more. There will never be another like him. With a NACSW Nosework title and a NADAC agility title, he lived life joyously, with a smile on his face and a wag of his tail.
