One of the silver linings of the pandemic is the number of people who added pets to their lives. Jamie from Pearls & Pines Photography sent in these photos of her puppy, Ruby Sue, a Bernese Mountain Dog. Get ready for a cuteness overload! If you aren’t already familiar with the gorgeous Bernese Mountain Dog breed, check out Tana.
I’d like to inspire other families who have also brought home a puppy during the pandemic and are finding themselves not knowing how to how to navigate the situation.
It’s definitely a different time for a lot of things but pandemic puppy-raising is also one of them. 
We are not alone. Although we may be separated, we are all going through the same things. It’s good to remember other people feel our struggles and joys as well.”

What a cute puppy! These are the sweetest photos. I can see how it’s tough to socialize puppies during this time!
I am sorry but my heart melted with that first photo with her little tongue hanging out. ABSOLUTELY adorable.
Ruby Mae is so precious! I don’t think I’ve heard of the Bernese mountain dog breed before although I’ve seen dogs who look similar.
Ruby looks adorable. My heart melts with these photographies. Great captures and cute poses. The paw oh my god it’s super cute! I’m sure Ruby understands she can’t go out now. She’s happy as long as her family is happy.
I love it, you have an incredible and adorable buddy there. It’s nice to have a dog buddy like that especially times like this.
Ruby Sue is so adorable, it looks like she actually posed in a few of her photos. Too cute!
I’ve always loved Bernese Mountain Dogs, they look so cuddly! Ruby Sue is absolutely adorable.
Bernese Mountain Dogs are so lovely! Damn my allergies, but I’d love to have one. Thanks for sharing another ray of sunshine in our week 🙂
Such a cute dog! I love her colors so much and great pics!
Thanks for these tips! It’s awesome to have a puppy! They are so cute!
Oh my goodness! This Bernese Photo Shoot is so cute! Now I want one with my St. Berdoodle.
I have three dogs at home and no more room, but now I really want a Bernese, so cute and adorable
Cuteness overload for sure!!! I’ve been trying to get my husband to fall for a Bernese mountain dog, but so far I can’t convince him we need another dog. They’re my favorite!
OMG, cuteness overload. Ruby Sue is so adorable. Bernese are such sweathearts.
Ruby Sue is the cutest dog on the planet! I can’t believe how cute she is I really appreciate the comment that we’re not alone in this we may be separated, but not alone. That really resonates with me thank you for sharing that!
This is totally gorgeous and the pup has such appeal. I have a sneaking feeling that this is going to be one vert VERY big dog – right? Things are tough for people but mask wearing and stuff, so a puppy has got to be the best alternative to sitting at home alone during lockdown!
Totally gorgeous photo shoot!
