Bernese Mountain Dog

Bernese Mountain Dogs are calm enough to lounge on your couch for hours, then strong enough to pull you off your feet on a walk if something catches their attention. They’re devoted in the way that means following you from room to room and looking genuinely concerned if you close a door they can’t get through. Fair warning: that thick double coat sheds year-round, which means you’ll find black and rust hair on literally everything you own.
