About:Idaho is co-owned by our good friend Julie and ourselves. This is the second Berner Julie has had from us. Idaho started our living in Auckland with Julie but after some show success we knew he had the potential to do amazing things and make dreams come true - and he certainly has - so he came back to live with us and Julie now has a little Idaho called Austin! He is such a cuddle bunny and loves attention. Idaho ended 2013 with a bang - winning 2 Best Dog awards and a Best of Breed and even got a run for Best In Group, with limited showing he was not far off his Championship title.
2014 is starting well with both Idaho and Fergie gaining their NZ Championship titles.
Idaho achieved his championship title with limited showing and against imported top winning males.
What a ride this boy is taking me on - Best of Breed at the National Dog Show (2014) and then something we all dream about -
on Saturday 15 November 2014 Idaho was awarded BEST IN SHOW under Breed Specialist Lyn Brand (Branbern Bernese NSW)
