Kardia (car-dee-ah) means “heart” in Greek, it’s also the root the word “cardio” (just in case you were curious). As our very first Berner, and life long dream; as her name implies, she is in every way the love of our lives.

Temperament: In describing her demeanor words always fall short, but we are biased. Wicked smart, goofy, loyal, sweet with children, weary of strangers, yet, true to her breed, never aggressive. Her goofy demeanor never seizes to amaze us, but even more so her intelligence is exquisite. She has a whopping 2000+ hours of training and counting. She is trained on cart drafting. She is one of those doggies that knows what you want before you even say anything 🙂

Her bloodline comes with a clean bill of health from OFA (orthopedic and cardiac) clearances, both parents have impressive looks, presence, and of course, intelligence. Her blood line includes impressive pedigree including Van’t Stokerybos, Kronblommas (two of the most prestigious breeding lines of Berners in the world) and the Meigas line from Spain.

Vivaldi (aka Vivi) has journeyed all the way from the renowned kennel Bern Haus on Oka to join our growing family.

His pedigree is a dream and has a long lineage history of health clearances. His bloodline carries countless championships from his dad to grandparents and great-grandparents.

Temperament: In our home he is known as Cat-Dog. He loves rubbing himself against the couch and zig-zag himself through human legs. He bounces like a silly goat, and follows the philosophy “Play hard, sleep hard.”

His favorite TV show is River Monsters.

Vivaldi is smart, attuned to his pack, loving, patient, full of puppy brains and funny. He loves to cuddle and taking long naps in the sun.

A giant puppy at heart.

So pure-hearted it is hard to resist his aloof personality.

In-Yun (pronounced: In-Yeon) which means “fate” or “destiny”, the inevitable encounter with certain things in life. “Yunny” (for short) journeyed all the way from the renowned kennel Bern Haus on Oka to join our growing family.

Her pedigree is a dream and has a long lineage history of health clearances. Her bloodline carries countless championships throughout her pedigree.

Temperament: She loves to jump around, we believe she may be part goat and part rabbit, with some bernese in there. Incredibly affectionate, loves staying close to the pack, submissive and goofy. There is not a single cell of malice in her beautiful soul, she is a joy to share our life with.

Momo could be defined in 4 words: Sharp, Intelligent, Mischievous, Loving.

Momo carries a very balanced, square frame with block head. She is closer to the ground and proficient in agility and quick coordination.

Her independence and curiosity can sometimes challenge commands, however, she is excellent with training since she was a younger pup. There is little she cannot learn. Born to be a leader, but happy to follow her mom’s lead.

Her lineage includes multi-championship lineages from Poland, Spain and Belgium.

Darwin is inquisitive, smart, a little Tasmanian devil with the energy of a pink rabbit, but loving and eager to please. We look forward to seeing how she develops.

RETIRED

Louis was named after one of our favorite musicians, Louis Armstrong. While he cannot play the trumpet (unfortunately), Louis or Looster Bear, as we like to call him, is the happiest and giant goofball. Sweet, loyal and full of life, like Bernese in a china shop.

The Stokerybos line is one of the best Bernese breeders in the world with over 60 championships and over 150 titles.

It is a dream come true to had been able to carry this wonderful line in our program.

Our dear looster bear is now retired, and is living in New Jersey with friends of ours.
