Bernard used to be one of Scotty’s show dogs, and like Viper his dad, spent a lot of time sleeping in Scotty’s bed. Bernard was (and is) a lot more active than Viper, but you can expect that from a younger dog. His handsome appearance however can be seen even from a distance…..and all of that is genetics.

But when Danny let him out to see us it was clear he did not recognize us at all. He was all about Dan instead. It is actually just what you hope for when you are a breeder, that the dog will leave that bond with you and become bonded to its new family. That happened……but even Scotty said it hurt just a bit. Bernard was not a pup who left us at 8 weeks. He lived with us, slept with us, played with us, and was our family for quite some time.

Scott and I talked about it on the way home. Bernard is pretty darn happy, and he loves Dan and there was no doubt he was home. It made us both feel pretty good.

I think Scotty wants me to take Steph down there next week. Not to see Bernard, but to see if Danny will keep her too. I think he is interested in taking her room!

Goodnight my friends and God Bless!
