Pet shop Berner
My husband Gary and I were in St Louis this weekend. We went to the
local mall and walked passed the Pass Pet pet store. Guess what was in
one of the windows, one of those "Burnese" Mountain Dogs. Gary collected
all his courage and went in to get some information. Here is what he was
told:
According to the store manager:
It's a female, 3 months old. The "Burnie" a slow growing breed not
reaching full size until about 2 yrs old. It's the one of the smaller
breeds of the Mastiff family. Good watch dog. No health issues except
sometimes (but "rarely") hip problems. They have a 1 year health
guarantee but any health issue have to be confirmed by "their" vet
(maybe the same drunken idiot that is the official vet at the auctions).
And for only 30 bucks I could buy an extended warranty. And the best
thing is it was on sale at a mere $2250 marked down from
$3175 Heck of a deal. The papers from the "breeder"
(reluctantly shown to me) were hand written (noted the spelling "Burnese
Mountain Dog"as was the sign in the window). No sire or dam info listed.
The dog is registered through APRI ("because AKC to just too darned
expensive and APRI is much better anyway"). The "kennel" is Happy Hollow
Pets in Williamsville Missouri (southeast Missouri). This Pass Pet store
buys most of it's puppies from this "breeder" and they had lots of
different breeds at this store. It is the first time they tried a
"Burnie" according to the store manager.

Re: Online ad for berner pups
Yes Seymour Missouri is in the armpit of America, the Ozarks in southwest Missouri. Land of puppymills and dog auctions. Isn't America grand.land of the animal abusers and home of the greedy! It's not far from Wheaton, home of Southwest Dog Auctions. A coincidence..I wonder. Gary Turner On Wed, 11 Dec 2002 02:05:06 -0800 (Pacific Standard Time) "A.

Re: Female Incontinence
As a DES daughter, I have lived the nightmare from the effects it has had on me. I can not imagine giving my dog any drug that might be linked to DES in any form. I'm sure some would say it may affect humans differently than animals but I'm not willing to take that chance. I can also understand why people sue the drug companies over this, which I would love to do, but my records mysteriously disappeared.

Re: Berner Sighting!!
Yes indeed that is a Berner butt. We have seen that commercial for a few weeks now. We taped it so we could watch in slow-motion. So watch closely...there is nothing like a good Berner butt!! Gary & Penny Turner and Archie (the best Berner butt there is!!!)
