Puppies
The primary dog breed we offer are the Burnese Mountain dog puppies.
Bernese Mountain dogs are very good looking dogs as pups and also as full grown dogs. They are out of the breeds of Sennenhund dogs of the Swiss Alps. They grow up to be a big dog. Do a quick search online for Bernese Mountain dogs to see how beautiful these dogs are.
Bernese Mountain dogs are said to be very smart dogs. Again, they grow to be large dogs – males may be approximately 25 to 28 inches and females 22 to 26 inches (from ground to shoulder). Apparently the Males of these dogs tend to weigh approximately 90 to 125 lbs and females 75 to 100 lbs.
They are normally three colors (black, white and brown). They have been traditionally used for “draft and droving” work – very strong dogs. Draft has to do with a dog pulling a cart or wagon, etc. Some dogs can pull up to 3 to 4 times their own body weight. A Drover Dog (differs from driving dogs) has to do with dogs that were bred to drive large flocks of sheep over long distances to market. Trailing behind the sheep these dogs would bark and move back and forth naturally keeping the sheep moving in the right direction.
Bernese Mountain dogs are referred to by some as “Berners”. They are normally very gentle dogs and good with children and farm animals. As with all large pets caution and supervision should be taken with them being around very small children or babies.
These Dogs love to be part of the family indoors and outdoors and don’t do as well being isolated.
Though we mainly sell the Mountain Bernese (also called Bernese Mountain) dog puppies we often also offer a few mixed breeds as well.
If your looking for a new puppy please give me a call today! Clara

Some Tips on Mums.
Be sure to spray a little soapy water on your Mums (buds and stems) to kill aphids. they are the main hazard in bugs to your Mums.
Mums need lots of sun. Plant them in a sunny place or place them in sunlight indoors. Try to keep your Mums in the direct sunlight for 4 to 6 hours (6 hours for large blooms) throughout the day for good results.
Mums need plenty of soil to grow well and so re-potting them when you take them home is a good idea in case the roots have taken the place of the soil in the pot you purchased.
Mums can be replanted for the coming growing season by planting them after the fall first freeze and trimming the stems short. They’ll be ready to pop up again in the spring time for you.
Trim your Mum blooms back short (2″-8″ form the ground) at the end of the first spring bloom and they’ll bloom again in the fall!
Come out and see our selection of flowers and plants and especially our Mums in the fall time! We look forward to seeing you.
