Autographed
copy of
The Bernese Mountain Dog
Yesterday and Today
by Silvana Vogel Tedeschi
English Text by Lindy Kunz
This new book gives English-speaking readers the first
opportunity to have access to important facts about the breed
which have only been available in other languages. The
interesting history of the breed is described in great detail.
With words and informative illustrations, it is shown how the
Standard is to be interpreted, and how the individual traits
should be considered in the show ring and in breeding.
Particular attention is paid to the distinctive features of the
temperament and behaviour of these former farm dogs, showing how
their history has molded their character and behavior. The
following chapters explain how a puppy develops mentally and
physically with good advice on raising and general management,
as well as life with the adult Berner today. The last chapter
contains information about problems involved in the growth of
the skeleton and how these can be influenced by nutrition and
proper care of the puppy. The inclusion as an appendix, of the
first complete translation of Professor Albert Heim´s text,
“Die Schweizer Sennenhunde” published in 1914, makes
this book particularly valuable. It will be the standard work on
Bernese Mountain Dogs for many years to come.

Reuge Swiss
Chalet Music Box"EDELWEISS"
This vintage Swiss Chalet music box made by REUGE is in
excellent condition. There is a label on the bottom of the box
next to the wind up key marked " REUGE, Swiss Musical
Movement, Edelweiss". When the lid is opened exposing a
small storage compartment the song "Edelweiss" plays
and the water wheel turns. This darling little box just makes
you feel good! Everytime I listen to it I find myself humming
Edelweiss the rest of the day!
