Each year we come together at the Na-

tional Specialty to honor and celebrate

these wonderful dogs that give so much

of themselves to us.

Whether it is of your time,

talent or finances that

you selflessly give, it is in-

dividuals such as yourself

that make this a truly

special event.

The 2011 Show Committee

would like to thank you

for your support.

No pooping at the

draft ring!!!

There are three draft tests

this week - Tuesday & Friday.

The draft ring & crating area

are adjacent to the Wyland

Center (show building).

PLEASE be courteous to your

fellow exhibitors & Berner

you would wish to

be treated. do

not enter the

draft ring area

for any reason, &

only exercise

your Berners in

designated areas.
