Our Veteran Berners

  By Joan H:  Sammie (Blue Mtns Naseweis) was born August 13, 2000.   She is a certified therapy dog, and a CGC as well.  Sammie is very unique among the Berners who have owned us since 1983  -  she howls and sings, as well as sighs !   She will howl along with the applause when she hears it, and when content and lying at my feet, she emits sighs of pleasure.  She will ring a string of bells on the door to be let outside and will push open the door to come inside.  She is alpha dog to Hans and we have the pictures to prove that she and Hans were actually involved in a pillow fight  -  as the see of feathers could attest to .....  We hope she will be with us for many more years !

    By Hanne: Blaze, 01/09/2003 - 04/11/2011.  I never would have imagined that the loss of a dog hurts so much ....  He wasn't just a dog,  he was part of my heart and soul.  He will be forever missed -  happy trails to you, my boy - 'till we see each other again!
