Hi all Yes "she" will be worth her weight in "gold". Might I suggest the name Goldie? When we got our Costco berner, Bacchus went through the exact same things......licking ears, smelling nether regions [or will the new PC name be "neither regions"] rolled her over and gernerally fell in love. And this is a boy with a real live berner girl living here. He still "protects" her from Ari. Not in a mean way.....just in a "that's my baby and not yours" kinda way.
Trust me.....a Costco berner in the home is worth HER weight in gold. Love from Cathi, Bacchus and Ari [her favorite is the little pup they sold at Big Lots that sings "and they called it puppy love"] Massillon, Oh ----- Original Message ----- From: "Maria Crifasi" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, July 14, 2003 9:28 AM Subject: Re: What's Next??? > Pat wrote: > > > And will you accept even my bad ideas for a name for the Costco Berner?
