We adopted our first Berner when he was 2 and he was already named Fargo so we left it that way after a lot of discussions. Our second Berner is Olympian's California Pawppy. She is named after a wild flower, the California poppy but we changed the spelling. We had wild poppies growing in our yard when we lived in California. Callie as we call her is living up to her namesake she is quite a wild flower! We have now adopted a third Berner and she came to us with the name Skye and a nick name Skye Pilot (after an old song). We noticed the cutest white V on her behind and she became Skye Violet and now she is usually Violet. I have about 60 African Violets growing in the house and I am rooting more all the time so Violet fits perfectly.
We have lots of pet pictures on the walls and next to one of Fargo's picture is a map of Fargo, ND. Next to one of Callie's pictures is a picture of California Poppies. Now we need to hang a picture of Violet with a picture of violets and the sky next to her. Cherie Massaro Fargo, Callie and Skye/Violet Hopkinton, NH
