The Garden Party 2013
Bernese Mountain Dog Club of Great Britain

We encourage our Team Pasturegreen families to come along to Bernese Breed Club events and have a go at some of the classes on offer. We also love to see all our families and their Berners who we've bred. We laid on a buffet lunch for our families who generiously brought a food offering along. At the end of the day the Family members who had clocked up points during the day from their class placings won our Team Pasturegreen Awards with every child going home with a rosette and sweets.

The sun may not have been shining all day, but everyone had a great time.

Team Pasturegreen Families Buffet Lunch

What a wonderful spread of food to fill our bellies. Homemade sandwiches from Debbie, super quiche from Michelle & Tony, sausage rolls, chicken and little sweet nibbles from Kerstie, Nick & Sam, Homemade Flapjacks from Louise, Homemade cupcakes from Jeanie and Homemade chocolate cake from Clair & Rob. There was very little left after people had gone home with goodie bags.

Time To Eat, Natter & Catch Up

Some of our Team Pasturegreen families enjoying lunch together.

Well Behaved Berners at Lunch Time

.... and whilst the families ate, their very well behaved Berners relaxed with perfect manners.
