Re: One Door Closes
One Door Closes and a Window Opens came up as jumbled letters which made no sense on my screen when I was reading the Berner-L this morning at my computer. Did anyone else have this problem? Just curious!
Re: Rescue help needed in PA
Rescue help needed for a 7yr. old male TDI BMD by the name of Echo. His owner goes out of town 3-4x per yr and the petsitter situation is not working out. If anyone in the Bethlehem, PA area or vicinity can take care of him while they are away, please let me know. The dog needs a fenced in area and is great with other animals and ofcourse people. The owner thinks he misses doing Therapy work and that would be a plus if he could do that as well. The owner may be willing to give him up if the right match came along. If you are interested or can help out in any way with the babysitting (they will pay) I can be e-mailed directly at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Marla Weinman Rescue Contact, BMDCW
Re: One Door Closes and a Window Opens
Being a faithful and devoted Berner owner since 1994, I have to say that losing my first Berner has been an experience that has been both heartwarming and heartwrenching at the same time. Bernard of Puddingstone (Bernie to our family) came into our lives on a cold, snowy day on the NYS Thruway. He was handed to me at the age of 49 days in a blanket by JoAnne Gerow when because of an overturned truck we could not make it all the way up to her kennel. He sat on my son Josh's lap, then 7 yrs. old and now turning 16, and instantly became an integral part of our family. He was our protecter(as well as the entire neighborhood's!) and a loving and faithful family member for almost 9yrs. This past summer he came on vacation with us to Montauk, NY along with our 1yr. old BMD, Buzz and Van our newly adopted Golden. I will be forever grateful for taking him with us because it turned out to be his last week with our family for when we arrived home he passed away with a smile on his face and dignity just a few days later. He was my loyal and faithful guy right to the end. I walked out of our kitchen to check my email and he passed when I left. He protected me to the end by not breathing his last breath in front of me. Buzz and Van refused to leave his side. Van, a 2 yr. old Golden who is a reject from the Seeing Eye in Morristown, NJ came into our lives for a reason for sure. He was given up to me by a family that I worked for this summer who could not give him the quality of life he deserved. He has made life without Bernie so much more bearable. He truly came into our lives just at the right time. Thanks you's go out to all that were there to support us during this really hard time. For those of you that knew Glora Henes, Bernie was one of her last puppies from Peter the Great and I dedicate this little email in her memory. I always wanted to become more involved in the BMDCW and this past spring I took on the position of rescue along with Margaret McMath. Thanks go out to Margaret for all of her help and support in the Rescue arena. I couldn't have a better mentor! Lastly, Congratulations and Best of Luck to Barbara and Bob on their adoption of Sammy. Thank you for your gift as well! They are delicious! I am so happy that I was able to assist you in finding your BMD! Marla Weinman Rescue Contact BMDCW
Re: BERNER-L digest 4529
This is for Vilma Briggs, in my opinion, the horsewhisperer of Bernese Mountain Dogs! You did help yourself to the name Buzz and it sounds very fitting for that little guy! I'm happy to hear that he went to a great home... I personally love the name and after having about a few hundred names picked out for my puppy and reading the Best Book of Dog names, my Buzz came long with his name from the Brownstein's (Keilissa Kennels) So much for name picking! My daughter said to me when I brought him home and told him his name was Buzz, you mean it's not Bentley!? If anyone is interested, I saw a beautiful dog on line at Petfinders.com Her name is Kenzie and she is a Bernese/collie mix at the Lake Ariel Angels' Grace Pet shelter. I alerted a couple of BMDCofW club members about her and she seems really nice from her picture. All the markings of a BMD, complete with eyebrows, but very little white. If anyone knows anything about her or where she went, I'd appreciate any info.I love happy endings! Marla Weinman BMDCofW Rescue
