Let love last!
Berner9 was created to represent the longest-living Bernese Mountain Dogs and their lineage in Hungary. Our goal is to safeguard the Berners’ health, to support prospective owners in their choice, and to give breeders and owners a chance to show off their pride and joy. In addition to long-lasting basic dysplasia screenings, now a variety of genetic tests is available to support breeders in the selection of their Berners.
However, these tests cannot be comprehensive even despite the best intentions, as they tend to focus on a narrower field, typically restricted to breeding information for matings.
Berner9 approaches this general health issue from the perspective of longevity: a beautiful old- age Bernese is unlikely to have been affected by one of the radical life-shortening diseases. If a particular breeder or lineage has shown many longlife dogs, it can be considered a strong indication of the high-level of their breeding work.
We believe that the Berner9 register will be a great platform for many health and longevity- dedicated owners and breeders to represent the excellence of their dogs!
