We have sent our puppies to their new homes. Expecting in September 2 litters!

	Meet Bob! Our newest and most photo genetic baby! Bob was stepped on at 4 weeks and dislocated his elbow so now he is with us! His elbow is 100% fine but we could not possibly part with him.I want to work on his own page! What a case!
	Claudia With Expressions or as we call her Sissy! This is Sissy's page and pedigree.
	Ida Mae is one of our girls! Ida Mae is never happy without she is with the other dogs! Her pedigree is available at this link. She loves all her family. We would like to see her have one more litter but for now we are just sitting tight on the kids.
	This is our Max! He is three in November 2009 weighs in at 145 pounds. Check Max's Page! We look forward to seeing what more of his babies in 2010! Great sire!
	Strawberry is from Arkansas and is a girl friend for Max this next breeding.
	Shep is our ranch Berner. He keeps everyone inline on the ranch. Shep is smaller then most of our dogs but he is very active and very healthy in all respects. We hope that his babies will all be the best we can have!
	Our little Bessie! She is one of a kind and a true love in our lives. Very devoted and has gorgeous babies. We hope for a litter later in 2010 from her. Can't wait!
	Clover is a female from one Sissy and she is just a real star around here! She is going to be very wide bodied and make a great momma dog. These where used in the commercial for Purina dog food.
	This is our Gracie! She is out of Shep and Sissy.
	Me feeding extra stuff to the kids. The old saying about old dogs really is true. These are the most wonderful special dogs in the world. Old Swiss Expression: Three years he is a young dog...three more years he is a good dog.... Three more years and he is an old dog....Any left after that is a gift from God!
	Puppy Gallery! After they go home!

(1) They live here. You don't.
(2) If you don't want their hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture. That's why they call it 'fur'-niture.
(3) I like my pets a lot better than I like most people.
(4) To you, they are animals. To me, they are adopted sons/daughters who are short, hairy, walk on all fours and don't speak clearly.

Remember, dogs and cats are better than kids because they:
(1) eat less,
(2) don't ask for money all the time,
(3) are easier to train,
(4) normally come when called,
(5) never ask to drive the car,
(6) don't smoke or drink,
(7) don't want to wear your clothes,
(8) don't have to buy the latest fashions,
(9) don't need a gazillion dollars for college and
(10) if they get pregnant, you can sell their children ...

WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THE OLD ONES
Author Unknown

The ones that are past, their glory gone by,
The ones that didn't win, however they try,
The ones that did win, but later turned shy,
The first one you bought, that had a light eye.

They're eating their heads off, the food bills are high.
Find them good homes, the answer is clear,
But the only good home that mine wants is here.
Their own special sofa, covered with hairs,

They all cut their teeth on the dining room chairs.
The safe and familiar paths of their days,
The garden, the outing, their own funny ways
That only I know... and even their food
If not given by me, wouldn't taste half as good.

So now I'm deep in old ones, who're not good at all
Who clutter the sitting room, kitchen and hall,
Who need to be brushed, to be walked, to be fed,
Who only want me to put them to bed!

They're faithful and loving and set in their ways,
So I'm stuck with them all, for the rest of their days,
But I have to confess that when we do have to part
I'll miss them so much... it will just break my heart

On the fourth day, God created the tennis ball so that the dog might or might not retrieve it.

On the fifth day, God created honest toll so that man could labor for the good of the dog.

On the sixth day, God created veterinary science to keep the dog health and the man broke.
