Schaetzend Kennel Reg'd
Welcome

Schaetzend Kennel Reg'd
(German: pronounced 'shot zend" meaning "To Cherish")

Hello! My name is Denise Knight and I got my first berner in 1997. I started this kennel in 2000. I looked for a name that reflected how I felt about my dogs. The word Schaetzend is German and means "To Cherish". I have had many dogs and each one, I hope felt CHERISHED. This is a very special breed of dogs with a love for people beyond mere words. Take a moment to view this site and experience some of the highs and lows of my life with the wonderful Bernese Mountain Dog.

Keeper does it! He takes a Group 1 in the N. A.C.A. show---the third largest outdoor show in Canada! What a thrill for us both! More info will be available on his page soon!
