Description
Dog Breed: Bernese Mountain Dog (long coat). Adoption Fee: $400.00 Meet Luna! This gentle girl is making great strides every day! Luna is doing well with her potty training and continues to improve as she settles into a routine. She’s comfortable in her crate and we’re helping her gain confidence going in on her own. On walks, Luna is learning her leash manners—she does well overall and just needs a little practice with pulling. She’s a thoughtful observer who likes to take things in from a distance, but once she’s comfortable, she happily comes over for pets and affection. Luna seems to do well around other dogs and, while she can be a bit skittish at first, she is incredibly sweet and gentle at heart. She would probably prefer a calmer companion pup. With patience, love, and reassurance, this precious girl will truly shine.

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.
