How about big family gatherings, i.e. Thanksgiving and Christmas, or

I've heard that "tea-tree oil" does wonders for all sorts of skin problems
(including human psoriasis, dog hot spots, it's great for dogs that are
constantly licking their feet; as that's usually caused by a fungus!). You
can get it at GNC or other health food stores. Just a drop of the pure oil

Hello All,
Some recent posts speak about European Berner breeders as if that were a
clearly identifiable, homogeneous group of individuals.
There is, however, no such thing as "European" breeders.
There are breeders in Germany, in Italy, in Denmark, in Hungary, to name
but a few of the currently

his lower back. He also has some much smaller bum
There is a website that advertises Bernese and other
breeds, which mentions "limited registration."
It states that pet puppies are sold at lower price
than the show/breeding puppies, and that these pet

A pace is a two beat gait with the lateral paws hitting the ground
