BMDCSEW's Rescue & Rehome Information

BMDCSEW primarily serves Berners located in Wisconsin. If you would like to
check into adopting a Berner through or club or surrender your Bernese
Mountain Dog to our rescue, please contact Wendy Kerr, Rescue Chair at
wkerr@dcs.wisc.edu.

Send this form to Wendy (wkerr@dcs.wisc.edu) to apply for adoption of one
of our BMD's needing a forever home.

Adoption Tips:

Please take the time to learn whether the Bernese is a good breed choice for your lifestyle and expectations. There are many good sources available for research online:
BMDINFO.org offers http://www.bmdinfo.org/pages/Before_Buying.php

BMDCA.org offers: http://www.bmdca.org/pages/Bernese_Mountain_Dog_Info_Series.php

Consider the living situation the potential dog may have come from - some were in family-oriented homes and integrated. Others may not be trained, may have spent their lives outdoors, or was never properly socialized to people. Be aware of your strengths, patience and limitations.

Karen and Mike Kollath, and their daughter Halle, adopted Shandy. Shandy was a rescue that the Kollath's adopted from our club on 6/13/09. Shandy is getting lots of love and is doing fantastic in her home with the Kollath's.

Abby - Wonderful news was she was adopted in May, 2009!

Nellie - is now a resident of the Madison, Wisconsin, area! May, 2009

Bear & Nellie were rescued from a puppy mill setting in October. Many thanks to Ann & Mark Milligan for the time they spent in transporting Bear & Nellie. We're sure they enjoyed the ride!

Bear went to his new home on November 28th. He has adapted very well and loves life with a family. He is the type of dog that does not leave your side. He looks up at you and you cannot help but love him. He is five years old and his new family is working on house breaking him. Ann is hopeful that he will figure this out soon.
