Autumn and I took Bosco out for a hike in the Redwoods last month. We stopped for breakfast at a pretty decent spot in Montclair, where we found a dog that was the very spit and image of Bosco! In fact, they looked so similar that Bosco was mostly too busy wondering where the mirror was to have his usual hostile reaction.
But where Bosco is an Italian water spaniel, Cooper is a dilute-cote Bernadoodle, which I have rarely ever seen before. Coop is also a lot mellower than Bosco, as befits a Bernese mix.
