Mysha
Windevers Mysha
Mysha is Crickett's pup and therefore Miya's granddaughter.
With real longevity showing on both sides of her pedigree, we decided she had to stay.
This girl is addicted to swimming in our ponds.
Then she'll search me out anywhere on the farm before shaking it all off 😂

Sandylane Westwind Nikita
Our first mother, unfortunately Niki has now crossed over the rainbow bridge...
She has been a really wonderful mother for us. We are so grateful to you all you started Niki!
Sandylane Westwind MIYA (lived to be 11)
Miya and her littermate Niki were the start to our little kennel. It was such a pleasure to have these girls in our lives.
Windevers Dreamgirl ABBY
Abby is an imported & well-bred girl who is dual registered AKC/CKC.
She is our biggest girl at 95lbs and she is a loving and affectionate Bernese who just seems to know she's special.
Now passed over as well.
Windevers Dream Long Coming (CRICKETT)
(Crickett also lived to be 11)
Crickett is our first home raised female (Miya's pup) and she is a happy go lucky energetic Berner.
Her retirement was spent lounging all day on our golfcart (also known as "Rolling Couch")
Windevers Hopes and Dreams Still going strong at 12!
Our chair stealing bernese that everyone remembers for sitting on the bench in the kennel and begging for hugs with her big paw.
Our littlest girl gifted us with our 2 largest litters ever! And she was such a great Mom!
(Now Retired and 10yrs old)
Foundation Dam: Hope's personality is the basis of most of the lines our breeding program.
She is so calm, confident and outgoing.
She and her daughters pass on the sort of personalities that we are very proud to produce.
Star
Windevers Wishing on a STAR
We had always wanted to keep a puppy from Niki and here she is.
Star has the kind of calm and sweet personality that we are looking to have in our pups.
Star is our official greeter who loves everyone and will gently approach guests so calmly and quietly.
And she might just wrap her leg around yours and hang on.
Malibu (Bu)
Windevers Malibu Dream
Bu is also Niki's pup and though we weren't looking to keep a pup from this litter, she had such a great temperament that we knew she had to stay. She has passed on her super pretty looks to future generations of Windever pups.
Windevers Kyra
Kyra is a really nice natured and very friendly girl.
She may be 90 lbs but prefers to squeeze into the dachshund's little bed!
Each dog below, either beautiful (or acting weird) is one of our past pups.
Thanks to everyone for sharing all these great photos!
A special Thank You to Dave Johnson with his real talent for photography.
Dave, we will so miss your happy Cooper updates and smiling face.
