The lower level of the house once had a family room and three bedrooms, but now has a large Berner family room
and two whelping areas where babies are cared for during their first two to three weeks of life.
It's not
unusual to find a Berner under the office desk when working at the computer or a carpet of mountain dogs on the kitchen
or living room floor. Wherever the people are, that’s where the Berners are.
The dogs love to take turns riding
in the truck or van, going anywhere, but especially a drive-thru that gives out dog treats, like the bank or car wash.
The
Berners don't seem to mind sharing their home or yards with the cat or other Berner visitors. They enjoy
meeting and greeting the many visitors we have. We have a wonderful kennel and a great facility, but we don't have any kennel
dogs. All of our Berners are family members and live in the house with us or with our very special extended Little Bear
Berner Family (the TLC homes.)
