KAIBAB HARPER'S EAST OF THE SUN WEST OF THE MOON CD TDX NDD
Harper B for Blessings continues to enjoy her well-loved life in Montana. One is always afraid of saying too much lest we jinx her good health and happiness but suffice it to say that 11 is just a number to this wonderful, special girl.
This beautiful girl saved my life and I will take care and love her for as long as she is with me.
Owner: Paulette Schermerhorn
Kittee is an absolute joy and such a character! She makes everyone laugh with her very understandable conversations. Having an 11-year-old Bernese is the best gift I could ever hope for, and Kittee is wearing her old-girl status in style! Thank you Cindy Switzler for this joyous girl!
SANAA'S BRADZO LOVES ME TENDER
Owner: CAROL & DAVID DAVIS
His name says it all…….loving,tender,loyal.Bradzo is extremely sensitive with a wonderful personality. He enjoys going on walks,taking rides,carrying his favorite stuffed animal,watching people and other dogs. He learned and follows several Polish phrases. A big fan of dog movies, he gets annoyed with commercials and would turn as if to say, “let's skip thoseâ€. What a joy he is!
Charlie is a spunky 11 year old who has definitely not lost his zest for life. He loves meeting new people and going for walks. He always looks like he's smiling and his tail is always wagging. He is very loved by his two human parents and 4 human siblings.
Priairefire's Zero Wait Time SWN
Owner: Joanna Hughes and Sharon Johnson
Landrie was our feisty little girl who kept everyone in line at our house. She made sure I got up every morning by 6:00am to get breakfast. She let us know when there were critters on the property or someone walking by. She was the heart of our household. It's quiet in our house now and I get to sleep in. We miss her so much. She was a special girl.
Prairiefie's Miracles Can't Wait
Owner: Lori Kennedy and Sharon S Johnson
Dechlen challenged Lori but taught her, lovingly, so many lessons. They achieved his Working Dog Excellent Award (BMDCA) together which is a very prestigious accomplishment. As his Breeder I could not be more proud of them both. Dechlen will be deeply missed. Sharon
Brighteye Shasta On The Rox
Shasta is still going strong, she earned her PACH5 in October of 2022, giving her 11 Agility Championships. After Roxy and Cassie's young cancer deaths, Clark made the comment that “if she also died young she may be his last Berner….â€well her life was not cut short. Unfortunately his was, but Shasta and I have tried to continue Clarks legacy.
Lira's Brilliant Diamond BN CD RE HCT-S CGCA TKN
Ella came to me at a time when my heart was hurting, she sure helped to heal it. Through these last 10.9 years she has always been there to comfort me when I needed it. Ella and I had so many memories together. The Histio monster took her from me just 3 months shy of her 11th birthday. I miss you baby girl. You will always have a piece of my heart.
MBISS MRBIS GCHG Lavish's Brut Premier CGC
Eleven years, millions of smiles. I cannot imagine a day without Brut, his charm, his zest for life. An exemplary Berner, in and out of the show ring, he continues to delight us & everyone he meets.
PRAIRIEFIRE'S PROMISE ME A STOUT ONE
Owner: Liz and Joonho Yo and Sharon S Johnson
Porter is another gentle soul that, while living in Denver, was a big part of our lives thanks to his owners. He accomplished his AKC Championship and we all visited with each other often. About three years ago he moved with this family to Virginia but we were still able to see him each year when they drove into Denver. He loved his daily and nightly walks around local parks. Sharon Johnson
