Hailing from the Swiss Mountains, the Bernese Mountain Dog is one of four breeds of Swiss Mountain Dogs, and the only one to possess a long coat. Descending from the Mastiff dogs of Ancient Rome, the Bernese Mtn Dog can trace it's ancestry to Roman guard dogs that were left behind as sentries as Roman armies marched through the Swiss Alps. Interbreeding with local herding dogs produced a dog that was smaller in size than the Roman Mastiff, but still retaining it's steadfast enthusiasm to serve it's master and trustworthiness, as well as a keen ability to herd livestock. Bernese Mtn dogs have been used for centuries to herd, pull carts of goods and produce to market, and to guard home and hearth. When machines replaced the need for dog carts, fanciers took steps to ensure that the breed was preserved. In 1907, a club was formed to promote the Bernese Mountain Dog. The breed's popularity soon spread to North America, where it has been included as a recognized breed in the "Working Dog" Group.

Bernese Mountain Dogs make wonderful family pets. They are intelligent, affectionate, loyal and protective. Their natural herding instinct makes them first class babysitters!
The Bernese Mountain Dog breed needs a lot of exercise, so it is essential
that families considering a Bernese Mountain Dog as a pet be able to offer a
large, fenced yard and plenty of vigorous exercise. Grooming needs are moderate
- a thorough brushing every few days is important to keep the coat glossy and
tangle-free. Early and consistent obedience training is recommended to help this
breed reach it's full potential as a great family dog.
