I am sorry that the Northeast doesn't have any other acceptable sites
for our specialty. I am sorry that the specialty committee has felt
itself to be blindsided by the reaction to its decision to hold the
Specialty in Lancaster County.
Having said that, I will not knowingly support financially
Terry,
I understand about the collars. My Splash girl pulls
like a freight train. Even worse when she spots a
squirrel. Not anymore though!
Our trainer recommened a new type of harness for us.
It is called a Sensation Harness made by a company out
of California called Soft Concepts. We are

a talking boy, but that's fine! I have tried distracting him, giving him a

louder,
to the point of bothering my neighbors

I thought the consensus has been more for the Gentle Leader than for the
prong collar for training. I prefer the Gentle Leader to the Halti collar.
Once the pups or adolescents Berners show a tendency to pull I change from
a buckle collar to the Gentle Leader collar.

Many of the caring people on Berner-L have written to me about the
Appenzellers in the Yukon, PA shelter. A third of our club was working
on this situation (we are a very small club!). At the present time we
are waiting for more information about the placement of the male, Aldo,

When the Whole Dog Journal reviewed baby gates brands in July 2002 I
got 3 of the type that can be operated with one hand (Kidco Safeway
model I believe). It was SUCH an improvement over the pressure-held
kind! Baby gates turn out to be irrelevant to two of my Appenzellers,

Hi,
Can anyone explain to me the differences to all these collars? I have a
leather collar for Vincent, has always had and I do not understand the
differences between all these types of collars you are talkning about.
Are there a picture of them all somewhere?

Margareta,
I do think that some of the collar issues is how we raise dogs in different
countries.
While living in Germany, walked our Sheltie a lot more, took him to more
places, etc. After moving back to the US and having a fenced in backyard,
the walking got less.

Just read the article on Berners in Dog Fancy (GREAT ad, by the way,
guys. Truly nice.) and have a question for the breeders out there:
I get concerned when I see ads for Berners that say puppies available.

Hi,
I got information on prong or pinch collars.
It is forbidden to use these kind of collars in Sweden.
We saw them sometimes many, many years ago and noone would even dream of
using this kind of torture for their pets or members of the families as the
dogs are.
Very sorry to understand these
Since you are new to carting, I suggest you check out your equipment --
specifically your harness and traces. Beginners generally have no
problem with the fit of the harness, but usually do not adjust the
traces correctly.
When the traces are properly adjusted and your dog is standing still,

With all the pertinent, serious posts lately, I'm hesitant to raise the
following fluff question.
But we want to be Bernerly Fashionable this summer so I ask everyone:
Where is your favorite place (i.e. Web Site) to buy Berner Wearables?
Shorts, T-Shirts, Socks, Boxers...I'm up for anything :)
Ive added many more pictures of the specialty to the
website.
