In order to produce the best quality pups possible, we chose to import a majority of our Bernese Mountain Dogs, to use as our foundation breeders. Coming from Europe our imports have generations of health clearances, and show champions. European Imports have more genetic diversity, and on top of that the Europeans have been breeding with the highest standards, for much longer than the breeders here in America. So, with doing this we are able to produce some of the healthiest and longest living Bernese that can be produced.
