Introduction

The Bernese Mountain Dog is a striking tri-colored giant, boasting a gentle and affectionate disposition. Known for their long, silky coat and distinctive markings, they make both loyal family pets and diligent working dogs. Their large size is matched by a heart just as expansive; however, they require regular exercise to keep happy. Despite their strength, they have a calm presence that makes them ideal companions for children and adults alike.
