Absolutely! :-) I just lost a girl who was 2 weeks short of 14. I showed her at the National Specialty in Veterans at age 13 and she won her class in Sweepstakes and was 3rd in her regular Veteran class. In the end, she began to get picky about eating and I knew I was not getting needed supplements like glucosomine, MSM, Vit C, etc. down her. One day she just sat down and could not get up without help. I wanted her to go out with dignity and had her put to sleep before she began to not be able to get up to go out for the bathroom etc. She had a wonderful, long, healthy life! Rest in peace my wonderful little Cynosure's Ritzy Rival V Sajan!
Typically, my other Berners have died at age 9 and I currently have one who will (hopefully) be 10 in September.
