July/August 2024 Updates

Hi friends! I hope you all are having a wonderful summer! Here’s a little peek into this summer with our Berners. Above, you see Bulochka, our beautiful girl from Ukraine, and her two girl puppies we kept, Brookie and Brielle, enjoying relaxing in the yard.

“Isn’t it good to be alive on a day like this?”
-Anne of Green Gables

Summer thus far has been lovely–filled with quiet days at home, days spent adventuring, huckleberry picking, hiking, fishing, swimming…

Here’s a sampling of photos from this summer’s adventures:

I simply love wildflowers. One day, I made a wreath of wildflowers and took pictures of Brookie and Brielle wearing it. Aren’t they beautiful?

“He has made everything beautiful in its time.”
Ecclesiastes 3:11

And Bighorn, the boy puppy we kept from Bulochka’s last litter, is growing great. At 4 months old, he’s 50 lbs. now. He’s full of love and affection, but one of the calmest puppies we’ve ever had! I think one of his favorite things to do is just lay outside by the house and watch what’s going on.

All of Bryshka and Bourne’s puppies from “Litter K” went to their forever homes. Kaya, Kootenai, and Kila all stayed in Montana, while Kenai went to Idaho, and Kodiak to Vermont. Below are some pictures we snapped of them shortly before they left.

All going well, in a couple of months, we’ll have another litter of puppies, this time from Brookie and Bronco! (Head over to our Puppies page for more info about our puppies.)

Bulochka, Bryshka, and Bourne came along on a road trip that included driving through Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. I’m not sure if they appreciated the breathtaking mountain scenery, but they do love hanging out with their people and coming along on adventures.

“Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.”
-Helen Keller
