Nora

Champion Waldershelf Can’t Ignora JW

Nora is from the Matt x Martha litter and was 1 of 3 puppies. We hope in time,  she will continue this breeding line which we started back with her great grandma Hilda in 2014.

Her kennel name particularly suits her as you just can’t ignore her because she is such a big character. She is one of the most agile, fastest Bernese we have owned and we joke she is turbo charged when free running. She is very loving and just likes to be with you whatever you are doing, she is the perfect companion. Nora absolutely loves life and greets people with enthusiasm often bouncing on the spot. She particularly enjoys eating (everything), giving paw, swimming and licking yoghurt pots!

Whilst her show debut and early progress were delayed, due to COVID, she certainly made up for this. On hitting the show ring she quickly achieved her Junior Warrant and went on to become a Champion.
