We lost a dog at 41/2 to cancer he was a x breed. I was devastated by it and it took me 3+ years to think about getting another dog.
I had fallen in love with the Bernese, but was put off by the all the health issues main one being cancer, but my OH talked me round and said for however long we had that dog he would bring a lot to our lives, so we went ahead he is now nearly 21/2 and as of yet fingers crossed no health issues although we will expect them.
There is a saying for the Bernese 3 years a young dog,3 years a good dog,3 years an old dog and anything else is a gift from a God.
Ollie's breeder has got some who are 13 so we hope that is the case with Ollie.
If not we certainly would not of been without him and however long or short the time is we have with him I would not of changed a day of it.It is always heartbreaking to lose a pet of any kind at any age,
