Bernie passed away in March of 2003 soon after being diagnosed with
cancer. We are truly thankful to his mom for giving him the greatest
care and spoiling after adopting him in his later years. For example,
pancakes with Canadian surup were his very favorite breakfast. He
liked canned food with his dry food and Famous Amos cookies for dessert.
His mom would even cook turkey just for him! He had his own kitties
to play with and share his bed with. When he got up off of his dog
bed, you could read the phrase "out harrassing cats" embroidered
in white letters on his large, blue, cushy bed. When he wasn't resting
or out harrassing cats, he was running around his huge yard. Bernie
has touched many of our lives with his easy going nature. We love
your Bernie!
Fall 2001
Our sweet, old farm dog has moved on to greener pastures. He is living in the
lap of canine luxury and enjoying every minute of it. He reports that his new
mommy's cooking is spectacular, her yard meticulous, her home beautiful, and
the play dates and walks keep him slim, trim, and radiantly healthy. Thank
you so much to Bernie's mommy for seeing what a great dog he is and giving
him the chance to love her, even if he isn't a spring chicken.

Bernie Adopted on June 28, 2001
Bernie
was a 7-9 year old black/tan farm dog that was perfectly house trained
and very mellow. Sweet as all can be, Bernie still played like a
pup. He was a stray that was cared for by a good-samaritan and brought
to the rescue when she had to move to a city. His had a tendency
to want to jump short fences to chase cars or to play with children.
He also had some mild allergies.
