Essential advice and information for those considering a Bernese Mountain Dog. Is a Bernese right for you? Why would you want one? What do you need to think about? Who can you talk to? How can you find out more? Where can you meet some Bernese?
Bernese come into Rescue for many reasons but always through no fault of their own, our club’s Rescue and Rehoming branch helps to re-home and help Bernese in need. People willing to take a Bernese in need into their lives or foster one needing a temporary helping hand are always welcome to get in touch. Maybe you could assist us assessing dogs or homes in your area or maybe you can help with funding. Find out more and how you can help.
Carting is our breed’s signature activity and, whilst not unique to Bernese, both the Swiss and the fun themes of carting take the activity adds tradition, colour and spectacle to enhance any event. Find out more about what is involved in Bernese carting and how you could join in with the activity.
