Description
Dog Breed: Bernese Mountain Dog (long coat). SADIE was adopted from us as a pup and, sadly, needs to find a “retirement” home as their living arrangements are changing and Sadie will not be able to accompany them. Sadie is now almost a 7 year old Bernese Mountain Dog (DOB 4/29/2019) she is located in NJ so you must travel for the first meet and greet. Here is a writeup from her current family: ”Sadie is a sensitive, soulful girl with the classic Berner sweetness. Once she feels safe and settled, she becomes the gentle, affectionate companion the breed is known for. She loves being near her people and has a calm, comforting presence in the home. She bonds deeply and will absolutely melt your heart when she trusts you. Sadie has been evaluated by a behaviorist and diagnosed with “World Fear,” a tendency for heightened fear/anxiety that can be seen in some Berners. She is currently on Buspirone and Gabapentin (twice daily), which have helped her tremendously. Because of her sensitive nature, she would do best in a quiet, adult-only home. Sudden activity (like children running or toys flying) can overwhelm her. When anxious, she withdraws or hides — she is not aggressive. Sadie enjoys her daily walks and does well with a steady routine. Give her a soft spot on the couch, and she’ll happily snuggle in close. With patience, routine, and reassurance, Sadie will settle in beautifully. Like many sensitive dogs, she may need a couple of weeks to decompress in a new environment. Once she feels safe, her affectionate Berner personality shines." We would love a home with Bernese or similar breed experience. There will be a rehoming/adoption fee of $150. Her parents have done a wonderful job with her vetting and excellent vet reference is a must. Home visit required.

Overview:
The Bernese Mountain Dog is a striking and gentle breed originating from the Swiss Alps, where they were traditionally used as farm dogs for herding, guarding, and pulling carts. Physically, they are large, sturdy dogs with a distinctive tricolor coat of black, rust, and white, known for their expressive dark eyes and powerful build. Temperamentally, Berners are renowned for their calm, affectionate, and loyal nature, making them excellent companions. They are generally good with children and other pets, fitting well into active family life, though their size makes them less ideal for small apartment living without ample outdoor access. While their sweet disposition is a major draw, prospective owners should be aware of certain health considerations, including a relatively shorter lifespan and predispositions to conditions like hip and elbow dysplasia and certain cancers. Despite this, their unwavering devotion and majestic presence bring immense joy to their families.
