Hi everyone -- this question will no doubt simply reveal my inernet
ignorance -- but sinc everyone seems to be sending all mail to BOTH the new
and the old list addresses, how do I know whether or not I'm adequately
posted on yahoo? I AM getting lots of berner-L posts -- but where are they
coming
Hi all -- I'm writing for a friend, who has an 8 1/2 year old berner who has
lately developed what appears to be a 'numb' hind leg. That is, every now
and then as the dog walks his leg seems to slip out from under him toward
his other leg -- my friend says it looks like what would happen if you

Good morning, all. I am interested in trying carting with one of my dogs

Cat food goes on top of the fridge, and that solves that problem. Now cat

The biggest problem I've had is my young girl who likes to eat cat food.
I keep the cat food on the kitchen table away from the edge so the cat

Just a comment -- I, too, once lost a fax machine that way. That's why I
have my computer and accessories plugged into a surge protector AND I unplug
the whole thing every time I close down the computer.

Well, neither of mine has drooled spontaneously, like a Newf -- but hold up
a treat, and Djinn drools instantly! Stops as soon as she gets the treat.

Some of the breeders may have a better answer for you, but I have NEVER
seen a Berner drool.
I live on a sheep-rearing island, and because I'm a handspinner, I know a
lot of the local farmers. Every summer, tourists arrive with their dogs --
who have never seen a sheep. The visitors think it's wonderful to be in the
country where their dogs can 'roam free.' (Never mind about cars,

Yes, I have, and her name was Maggie, too. If you HAVE to have a cancer, a
mast cell cancer might be the one of choice -- depending, of course, on the
grade. If it's not too far advanced, the trick is to take out the tumour AND
a large margin surrounding it to make sure you've got it all.

Ah, escape-prone animals! I once had goats who believed they belonged in the
house with 'the other people', and patrolled the constantly-repaired fence
to find its weak points. And Djinn, now two years old, at four months leapt
over a three-foot deck gate, landed on the down-facing stairs, ran

Great thread! Djinn was from a 'D' litter, and I went through all the female
D names without a click. Then I thought of Djinn -- the original spelling of
the Genie in the bottle -- and it sounded great.

Does anyone have a Berner that ever acts as a guard dog? you know, not
vicious, of course, but warning barks?
Yes, but did she ever take me by surprise! When Maggie was about a year old,
we were both asleep one night (on my bed, of course) when suddenly she
erupted off the bed, rushing to

Pat's mention of a shampoo 'without a heavy scent' reminded me of the

Hi -- am I the only one who is getting fewer and fewer of the items listed
