Going to the Island

"Are we there yet?"

I don't know how she knows, but leaving the house today Bailey knew that I was taking her somewhere special. We love going to Granville Island to shop and see people. Especially Bailey, she gets so much attention! I think that everyone with a berner can agree with me that when they take their berner out for a walk they get stopped by admirers every few minutes or even every few steps. 

One very happy puppy posing beside the map of Granville Island. I just want to note that it wasn't me who suggested to take a picture beside the map... that was all Bailey's idea! Oddly, I felt like a tourist when I took this picture...

"I want to keep going, but let me just rest for a couple of minutes and I'm good to go!"

After walking around, Bailey plops down in the shade and takes in the beautiful scenery. As a reward for being such an obedient dog, I went to the butchers at the market and bought a beef bone for Bailey to chew on.

Shopaholic

Well I've already listed two of Bailey's favourite fruits, but here's something I think you would find interesting. Other than fruits, Bailey LOVES to go shopping. Her preferred stores include petcetera, tisol and all dog bakeries. And to prove it, here's a picture of Bailey shopping for some goodies. To think about it, I don't think we've ever come out of a store empty handed... ever! What can I say, how can you say no to those cute, adorable puppy eyes!

Most Loved Fruit

After extensive study and lots of yummy yummy fruits later. We finally have the results to Bailey's number one preference of fruit! In first place is......

STRAWBERRY!

After our experiment, Bailey happily posed with the winner. She did a great job balancing the strawberry on her nose for a couple of minutes while we took pictures. From our last post we asked you to guess what fruit would be number one. So did you guess correctly?

Fruit of the Week

My sister and I became very curious to find out what Bailey's top two favourite fruits were. So we did several experiments. With each experiment, we let Bailey choose which one to eat first from a variety of fruits we give her periodically. From our observations, we've figured out what her second favourite fruit is! So without further ado, second place goes to (drum roll please!)......
 
BANANA!!

We are currently finishing our experiment, so stay tuned for Bailey's number one favourite fruit! In the meantime, can you guess correctly what fruit is the most preferred treat?

Go Green!

Ever since a little puppy, Bailey has been trying to be eco-friendly. Here she is, sporting a new look and promoting the use of cloth bags instead of plastic.

It's Spring!

Oh what a beautiful day, time for us to let Bailey on the balcony to sun tan and people watch!
"Excuse me, you're blocking my sun!"

My look-a-like

Umm... Bailey I know you're really excited to be me for Halloween, but you're a little early! It's not October for another six months! But you sure do look adorable!! Maybe you can pull of as being me! Just a little hint though... you may want to put your arms through the sweatshirt or it looks like you have six legs!

Model

When my sister and my now brother in law had their engagement pictures taken last summer, their photographer fell in love with Bailey and asked the couple to bring Bailey to their photoshoot. Lucky Bailey got to strut her stuff and show off her prettiness! And the pictures have finally arrived!! The pictures may show you a calm Bailey, but at the time she (given that she was only a year old and a big old puppy!) was full of energy and bouncing around with joy and having fun with the photographers! The photographers did such a great job with the pictures. We're very pleased that they took some pictures of just Bailey, we wanted pictures taken of her professionally! Bailey was such a good girl, she was all smiles when it was her time for a close up!
