OK, The Stick Belongs To Both Of Us

Here is a great photo of two of my Berners in a competition of "who can bring the stick first" to the shoreline of the lake. They are such a funny bunch sometimes, and they just love the water.

Swimming is also great exercise for a Berner if your dog likes the water. These two love to go for sticks as long as you want to throw them into the lake.

Bacia is going into heat, so drop back often to get updates on puppies.

Summer At Gates Lake With Two Berners

We have had a scorching hot summer up here in Birken, and one of the ways these two like to keep cool is to jump in the lake for a swim, and chase sticks and floating pieces of wood. It is live entertainment at it's best, as Fidel and Riannon just love the cool water.

Going For A Swim In Gates Lake

Cisco And Fidel

Here is a great photo taken in May 2007 when I took Cisco and Fidel to Gates Lake for a swim, and to get some exercise. The Lake is only 5 minutes away from the Kennel, so I take the dogs for a swim as often as possible.

These two males take very well to the water, and enjoy the swim, and chasing after sticks when you throw them in the water.
