<< He was I must admit THE perfect dog-and I had only gotten him because I couldn't find a Berner-that was many many years ago. Well when he died I knew I could never find another Rottie as wonderful as Baer so I again started my search for a Berner. >> Wow Dino! That could be my story with my much loved Tyval, except she was a female Rottie! In all my years with dogs and all the dogs I've owned and loved very much, there is something very special about a Rott who is true to the standard for temperament. They are loving, fun, outgoing, easy to teach and almost always watch out for your welfare. They can also be hard-headed, and need a job to do every day or will get into trouble. They consider clicker training a WONDERFUL job and most have a serious food addiction. My Berner is also very loving, not quite as outgoing, easy to teach and chooses to let me watch out for his welfare <G>. He is rarely hard-headed but does need some kind of daily stimulation or would just turn into a puddle of mush. He too, loves clicker training and will do almost anything for a treat.
