For some reason, Greater Swiss Mountain dog pops into my head [&:].
Mine, too, although she's kind of small to be a Swissie pup. She could be a Appenzeller or an Entlebucher, tho. They are the other 2 Swiss breeds, and smaller than the Greater Swiss and Bernese Mountain Dogs. The Entlebucher is the smallest, about the size of a large Beagle. One thing is for sure, Bella is adorable!
That's kinda what we thought too. We saw an episode of "Dog Whisperer" and there was a swiss on there that he was working with. And we thought Bella looked a lot like that dog. And as she has grown older, she is getting away more and more from the Rottie and Doberman look.
Thanks for all the posts and compliments!
We're going to try controlling her excitement some by going to obedience training in the next couple of weeks. We should have gone when she was younger, but we have been able to housebreak her and she'll sit, stay, and go outside on command when I get her attention. But we want better control and her to be more attentive. So we'll learn how together.
Thanks again!
