About us...

Our family lives in one of the most beautiful areas in the Interior of British Columbia, Canada.  We live in "Lake Country" or as it was previously known as "Winfield."  We are surrounded by the most beautiful lakes, Wood, Kalamalka and Okanagan...home of the renowned Ogopogo!  It is a beautiful agricultural community, vineyards, wineries and multiple orchards surround us as well.  It is a perfect place for the Berner to play!

My husband Robert & I have lived here since 1981 and we are both very proud to have worked in the Health Care field & raised two wonderful children.  They are grown adults, have spread their wings and finding their own way now.  It is now time for me to fulfill my dream to show and raise puppies.  We chose the Bernese Mountain Dog, because of his faithfulness, versatility, devotion & dedication of this breed.  I was first introduced to the Bernese Mountain Dog when my brother bought a puppy, "Buddy".  Buddy lives in Quebec with my brother and is now 11 years old and going strong.  As a family, growing up, I always had dogs, LARGE dogs!  It only seemed fitting that my choice would be the Bernese Mountain Dog to fulfill this dream.

A huge Thank you to Anna from the Della Torre D'Ovarda Kennel in Italy for her mentorship and support. Also,  Thank you to my father for all his support.

"Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring - it was peace."
