RE: To the coward who is A Kessel
Cathi I am horrified at the treatment you are getting form that anonymous writer. It never crossed my mind that you were anything other than genuine I cried when I read about your distressing situation, imagining that this misfortune could happen to any one of us. I am also greatly touched that so many other subscribers to the group are with you and support you and also abhor this behaviour. It has restored my faith in the list. Being only a fairly new subscriber to the list, I was shocked that there could be such venom coming from a list of people who have a common interest in the well-being of our Berner friends those who love them. I will keep you and you beautiful Berners in my prayers hope for a good outcome for you all.

I'm not suffering enough for you I guess. To even respond to your poison sickens me but in case there are others who may think I posted as a way to get money..you are wrong. I had already decided on Saturday that I wouldn't even apply to BEHAF because, even though I am no longer on the board, I didn't want there to be a hint of impropriety. Excuse me that I felt the need to vent to the people who have become my friends over the last 5 years or so. And I did think twice before posting about my divorce, but thought it could serve as a cautionary tale as well. How was I to know that my marriage would end after almost 20 years? That my husband would, as you put it, finaly [sic] figure out I was a fat, ugly b. And as for your suggestion that I get a real job. Again it disgusts me to even respond. I have worked since I was a teenager [I am now 47]. Now I cannot work due to medical reasons. I hope spewing the vile vomit got it out of your system. I feel sorry for you. If anyone would like me to forward this curse laden sack of bile to you privately, please let me know. I won't insult the entire list by doing so. But it is very eyeopening to think there are people like this out there. To everyone else that has posted with their kind words and prayersI thank you. That is all I was hoping for. Just prayers for Ari and Bacchus and a little moral support for me. Just like so many of us have needed from time to time. Cathi
RE: BERNER-L digest 4558 - Questions
Susan I find that the best way to give my dogs pills is to squish some cat food or really smelly stuff like sardines or cheese around the tablet. Sometimes I find I have to roll the tablet 2 or 3 times if Leo spits it out, but eventually he takes it he mostly thinks it's a treat because both he and Oscar love cat food. I always say to them 'sit be good I'll give you a treat' They know the word treat before they realise it's a tablet wrapped in the treat they've taken it.

RE: BERNER-L digest 4555 - Nipping Puppy
Hi Nancy How envious I am of you with your new Puppy. I have such fond memories of the fun we had with our 2 Berners when they were pups. One not so fond memory was the nipping, especially with our younger dog, Leo (who is now almost 3). He was always very mouthy and still is and I constantly had scratches all over my arms legs. I was ever so pleased when the last baby tooth fell out. I have just received a link to a Discount pet products site: http://bellingersdogtraining.com/about_us___company_info.html. If you fallow the link 'About Us' and then another link: 'Online Training Articles' you will see another link called 'Puppy Biting and Chewing'. You might find some useful advice there Cheers good luck Ivana Canberra - Australia -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Bernese Mountain Dog Mailing List Sent: Saturday, 30 August 2003 3:01 PM To: Bernese Mountain Dog Mailing List Subject: BERNER-L digest 4555 BERNER-L Digest 4555 Topics covered in this issue include: 1) Yahoo!

RE: BERNER-L digest 4539
Hi I'm just new to the Berner-l list am loving all the stories - some of them make me cry and others laugh I'm learning so much. I'm wondering if there are any Bernese Mountain Dog clubs in Australia. I often look at the photos of get togethers on the Bener.org page would love to take my two boys, Oscar Leo to a Berner party. There is nothing more beautiful than seeing a bunch of Berners all in one place at one time. So if anyone knows of a Bernese Club or group of Berner owners who live in Australia (I live in Canberra) who would like to get together, please email me personally. I'd love to hear from you.
