Montana Prairie Bernese

Today, our beloved canine companion, Rambo, passed away and is now at peace. We have been aware that this day was inevitable, and while we would have liked to have spent more time with him, we are comforted knowing that his suffering has ended. I hope that if dogs are permitted to enter Heaven, Rambo will be there, waiting for me when my time comes. This marks the end of an era for our family, as Rambo embodied the qualities of a perfect family dog: patience, protectiveness, and unconditional love. I have never encountered a dog as gentle with children as Rambo. I will deeply miss him, as he has left an indelible mark on my heart.

Many have reached out in regards to puppies. We currently do not have any litters planned for the near future. I do know of a nice litter currently on the ground and one due soon. Please PM me if you would like their information.

To all the new puppy parents: I CAN NOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH!!

When you finally welcome your 8 week-old puppies, please keep this image in mind. Them bones ain’t even touching yet. They walk so beautifully with big, flexible legs and backward movements because their joints are made up entirely of cartilages, muscles, tendons and ligaments covered in skin. Nothing is properly tuned or has any real grip yet.

When you overrun them or don't limit their exercise to stop them from overdoing during that time, you're not giving them a chance to grow properly. Every great, bouncy, exciting jump or race causes ripples between the bones.
In reasonable quantities, it's not a problem and normal wear and tear that will operate.

But when you let the puppy jump off the couch or bed, take him for long walks, you damage that joint in training. When you let the puppy move on slippery tiles, you damage the joint.

You only get to make them grow up once. A well built body is something that comes from excellent upbringing and good upbringing. BOTH, not just one.

Once you're an adult, you'll have the rest of your life to spend playing and engaging in high-impact exercises. So keep him quiet while he's still little and give him the gift that can only be given once.

It’s been a minute since we’ve posted. We have taken a step back to evaluate our program and decided what direction we want to move forward with. We are excited to share that although we love having litters every year, we are slowing that part down and focusing on getting this big guy into training. He starts his trading the end of December. We are looking forward to seeing where this goes. Crossing our fingers he sires a litter mid February in Wyoming with a female from our program!❤️ Argo BG # 225062. https://bernergarde.org/DB/Dog_Detail?DogID=225062&Disp=Rel
