(Ottawa Dog of the Week for August 17th/09)

“Maya is a Bernese Mountain dog and she will be 3 years old on October 14. We adopted her from her original family when she was 1.5 years old. Maya is a wonderful companion, you couldn’t ask for anything more. She helped us heal after losing our beloved Belle at just 5 years old of cancer in 2008. Maya fit in our family within hours. It started when we picked her up. She just hopped in the car as soon as the door opened and was ready to go. We haven’t looked back since! She moved from the city to the country and she is the happiest dog you have ever seen! Maya is very chatty and when she isn’t the center of attention she makes sure you know. She also does a pretty good impression of the Moonwalk too. She enjoys going for long walks in the woods and just being with her humans (even Buttons, our cat!). She must always have her toy “Moose” with her, she carries it around like her baby until too much fuzz builds up in her mouth and she spits it out. She lives up to her breed’s standard with her demeanour and intelligence. I could go on and on about Maya but most importantly she is the best friend we could have ever asked for.” – Maya’s Mom, Renée

We are new “adoptive parents” of two Bernese Mountain dogs. I was hoping to get in touch with this owner about what to look for if cancer strikes. Our dogs are already 3 and 4, so this may come sooner than we care to think.
Thanks,
Johannah
