Aggressive Behavior

I am a current owner of a wonderful Berner named Bridger. She's 5 years old and is so much a part of our family. However, my husband and I made the mistake of falling in love with the breed and purchasing her without researching the breeder. I'd imagine this is something many people do - once.

Hi Jen, My heart sure goes out to you. We had similar problems with our Berner and are very grateful to have an excellent vet who referred us directly to the proper orthopedic surgeon. When Bridger was around 1 1/2 yrs old, she blew her cruciate ligament, as well. Our vet guided us away from rep

Today is a nice cool 35degrees with a balmy 30mph breeze out of the north to chill the air as I take my guys for our afternoon walk. The cool air energizes all of us and I watch as my guys run and sniff in the pasture when it occurs to me what I like best about my dogs. I watch them strong, healthy

Just a thought. I may be way off and not know all the details, but if you are not showing in conformation, why not just get an ILP number. You can still show in all the performance events. It would save alot of hassle in getting all the signatures and sending papers back and forth. All y

If it is any consolation to the owners of our poop eating dogs, when I did my unofficial bloat survery I found that the only difference in bloat vs non-bloat dogs, in all questions, was that the non-bloat dogs were a majority of poop eaters and the bloat dogs were a majority of non-poop eaters.
