Winery Dogs (and a Cat)
Newsflash! Triangle Wine Country Tours is getting a Bernese Mountain Dog puppy! Our first dog was also a Berner: Sierra (see below left with our daughter Chloe in 2001) and we were so in love with her, I knew my next dog had to be a Berner too.
As we await the arrival of our Cassie, short for Cascade, as in the mountain range (below right at 6 weeks), I reflect on the long tradition of winery dogs. Coffee table books abound with adorable photos of winery dogs: California, Napa, Sonoma, Walla Walla, New York, Australia and Oregon. Plus one lone book on winery cats.
