The Bernese Mountain Dog, also known as the Berner, is a large and tri-colored breed with a friendly and gentle temperament. They are often characterized as loyal and good-natured, making them great family dogs. Berners have a moderately active lifestyle, require regular grooming due to their long and thick coat, and are prone to some genetic health issues. They originated in the Swiss Alps, traditionally used for farm and draft work. With proper care, they have a relatively short lifespan of 6 to 8 years and thrive in households where they receive ample attention and socialization.
We still have three males waiting for a good home! AKC registered, purebred Bernese from a good blood line! They will be 10 weeks old on July 29th, and we will deliver them from Spokane to Ellensberg on July 31st for prospective adopters. This breed has been wonderful with children, being loyal, sociable, and calm!
