Our Dogs

These are some of our dogs, I've shared my life with quite a few more but then this page would be huge! On this page you will find:

Poutine

Swisskiss Brownies a la Mode

  • 5 May 2000 - 5 April 2014
  • BG# 26217 (pedigree/health)

Poutine came to us as a pet from Swisskiss and quickly became part of our growing family. For 14 years she made us smile. I am forever grateful for her special zest for life and her self-appointed role as watchful nanny.

Bree

Bernergold's Bree of the Shire

  • 28 Sep 2010 - 14 Feb 2017
  • BG# 79132 (pedigree/health)

Bree was my first show dog and I am eternally grateful to Anita of Bernergold for trusting me with this beautiful girl. Her sire (Abbott) was the #1 Bernese Mountain Dog in the USA and Canada, and won Breed at Westminster. I learned so much while finishing her Canadian Championship, knowing of course that there is always more (and more) to learn!

Piper

Ablewood's A Sudden Epiphany

  • 9 Jan 2014 - 12 May 2020
  • BG# 112160 (pedigree/health)

Piper was my first homebred show prospect and I had high hopes for her. A daughter of Bree, her grand-sire (Abbott) was the #1 Bernese Mountain Dog in the USA and Canada, and won Breed at Westminster. However when Piper was one point shy of her Championship a personal injury forced me to drop many aspects of my life, and showing was one of these. Always focused and attentive, Piper became my shadow during my recovery and it broke my heart into a million pieces when she passed.

Borealbreeze Yukon Lights

Yukon is co-owned with Leslie of Borealbreeze and was a show prospect puppy, however he never quite grew to a sufficient size to be competitive in the show ring. He is a handsome boy both in looks and personality, being possibly the most friendly and snuggly dog I have ever known. We are working towards Therapy dog certification together - something he seems to have been born to do!
