The Bernese Mountain Dog is categorised in the working dog group and was used as a general farm animal, they were also utilised for their size and strength to pull carts and as draft animals.
This breed can grow to up to 70cm high and weigh up to 55kg. Bernese have a distinctly marked tri-colour coat, black with white chest and rust coloured markings.
Even though they have medium coats a good brush once a week should suffice to keep him/her in good shape. The temperament of the Bernese is sweet and affectionate, making it an ideal family dog; they have a good nature and should be quite docile around strangers.
The Bernese is an outdoor dog at heart; they do not have a great deal of endurance, but can move with bursts of speed. Bernese dogs crave love and affection, regular
