The Bernese Mountain Dog - DOG

The Bernese Mountain Dog

  The bernese dog is a great dog and used to be a draft dog (pulling carrige) in Switzerland. These dogs can carry around 1000 pounds and one dog once carried 2200 pounds which is alot for a dog the size of a labrador retriever.

  These bernese dogs were born in Switzerland and have a thick coat because they were originally up in the mountains of Switzerland.

   The bernese has a tri-coloured body like other Switzerland dogs. It has been believed that these dogs have belived to be more that 2000 years old.
  The bernese has many health problems but the worse is in their legs. The cartlige wears down causing pain. The dogs whine and could die due to the bone rubing on the other bone.

  Finaly this dog needs:
A large amount of space
Has many health problems
Sheds and dosnt need brushin much
Will train but you need to have patience
and dinnally a GREAT family pet
