“CLOONEY”
Born October 19, 2006
BernerGarde ID #45591

Clooney lives with close friends Wendy and Les Boehme in Tennessee. Wendy likes the Conformation Ring but she LOVES Performance and Working Events. I would say that Clooney is the consummate example of brains, beauty and soundness. He not only achieved his AKC Grand Champion Silver title, he is one of only a few Berners to ever earn the Bernese Mountain Dog Club of America Versatility Dog Excellent title. Pretty sexy, don’t you think?

Clooney is a result of breeding between our Po (Prairiefire’s It’s Showtime) and Elaine Lawrence’s (Starkenhund BMD’s) Nuala. As a result of Elaine’s generosity and our trusting friendship, Clooney left Mississippi and was driven to Tennessee via Wendy’s van. Then onto Colorado for a very short stay. Wendy could not get Clooney out of her head. So out to Colorado she flew to reclaim her four legged treasure, Clooney. Another happy story.

“BRIO”
Born January 5, 2010
BernerGarde ID #74440

Brio, Brio, Brio!! So much to say but first I need to begin with our great friends Bob and Becky Shuris, who have had Bernese from us since our very first litter in 1993. We can’t thank them enough for the wonderful home and love they give to their 4-legged kids and for being the best friends in the world.
Now on to Brio. Once again our good friend Darcy Babb, bred one of her beautiful girls to our PJ. When Bob and Becky heard the news they raised both their hands and asked for first option for one of his puppies. He was so darn cute as a puppy you could not walk by him without picking him up to cuddle with him. He is just like that at 8 years of age but we can no longer pick him up. A huge cuddle bug!

“DECHLEN”

I could go on and on about Dechlen and his human Mom, Lori. He was not an easy puppy but with lots of patience and determination, Lori channeled his energy into being a very successful performance Berner. Thank you Lori and Don for loving our boy so much.

Dechlen as a baby boy. Love the pink nose!

Mario, pictured here at three years of age and still a young dog, is the Son of our Keeper. Darcy Babb brought one of her lovely girls to Keeper for a breeding. When we brought Mario home he went to live with Devon and the Ellison  family.

With local showing, Mario earned his Championship and Grand Championship titles very quickly. He was invited to the Bernese Mountain Dog Club of America’s Top 20 and took many Group Placements while he was being shown. Our thanks to the Ellison family for loving their Prairiefire dogs so much.

Ronde is one of our up and coming boys. He lives with our friends, Bob and Becky Shuris. Ronde started his show career as a very young boy finishing his Championship and Grand Championship very quickly. He’s still, very much, acts like a puppy. Our thanks to Bob and Becky for continuing on this dog journey with us at crazy dog show sites, trips to the BMDCA National Specialties and just plain camping with our dogs in our RV’s.

Born June 13, 2016

Vonn lives with my best friend Charli. He is another of our up and coming boys and we know we’ll see great things from him. He is the brother to our Crew, Zander, Miles, and Irie from the Chyler and Kuna litter. He loves to spend his time outdoors to steal fruit off the trees, even if it means he comes in and out a million times a day to grab an extra snack.

Miles is another one of our young boys, who we know will make us proud. A gentle, fun loving temperament he is currently in Obedience training before he enters the Conformation Ring. A bit more maturing and he will be on his way. Our thanks to our friends, the Wilson family, for loving their Berners so much. Very spoiled 4-legged kids.
