<< I have a 65lb, 17 month old BARC female. I have met couples who want a BMD, but have never met one in person. The wife thinks Halley is the perfect size, the husband wants a big, buff Berner. I met 2 people this week who told me, after meeting Halley on a walk, that "this was their next breed of dog" and she was just the size they wanted >> There is a breeder locally here whose dogs seem to be much smaller than what I consider to be a "good size" breeder. I don't see many Berners around here but when I do, I can tell 100% of the time that a dog came from this particular breeder because of the size and also the paws (that are not all white...just a tip of white on one of the paws)...I know the lack of an all white paw isn't a big deal, but it is to me and personally, I doubt I'd pick out a pup with only 3 good white paws...those paws are one of their best parts (except that they use them so much to get attention!!!) Kim and Caesar (with 4 good big white paws mom!)
