TANZANITE BERNESE

GCHB Tanzanite's Stubborn Love CD FDC NDD

Neyla was the “middle child” out of Hannah, but nothing ever phased her…she had the solid temperament of her sire Homer. She got off to a slow start as a puppy – first having what turned out to be exploratory intestinal surgery (ultrasound was unclear as to whether or not she had an obstruction – surgery showed she did not) and then breaking her toe at 6 months, which required her entire front leg to be in a splint for more than one month. Despite these setbacks, she still finished her AKC CH at 17 months of age, and although lightly shown in 2016, had a promising start as a special.  She was a big girl with gorgeous sidegait showing power transmitted through a level topline.  Neyla earned her Novice Draft Dog (NDD) title in May 2018, and her AKC Companion Dog (CD) title in January 2019 - making her a BMDCA Versatility Dog.  She had her first and only litter - 2 boys - in August 2018.  Neyla was spayed in June 2019, due to infertility issues and concerns she might get pyometra.  Neyla earned her FDC (Farm Dog Certified) in April 2021, proving that an old dog CAN learn new tricks! Sadly, I had to let her go In March 2022, due to progressing kidney failure and IVDD; we also suspect she may have had cancer.  Neyla was such an easy, happy-go-lucky girl, a puppy at heart her entire life.
