Looking for a puppy?
If you are new to Bernese...
Realistically assess whether you are well matched with this breed. Please talk with a number of breeders, and be sure arrange to visit them and their dogs at home! Feel confident that a puppy or dog from the breeder's breeding program has the traits you are looking for before you jump into Berner ownership.

Have you made plans to meet breeders and their dogs at a BMDCSEW club event?
Breeders have different objectives in owning and producing puppies. At this time it is possible to obtain a Berner from a wide array of breeders. Please don't hit the panic button. It is not necessarily wise to get a dog from the first breeder you find with a puppy available. Thoroughly familiarize yourself with the differences that exist in breeders' policies, their focus and reasons for owning and breeding Bernese. The manner in which breeders transact the business of breeding and selling pups will be important for you to consider. Be clear about breeder services offered before and after the sale.
