Blair Berners

Alyssa B.

Breeder of Bernese Mountain Dogs

Meet the breeder

I'm Alyssa B., the breeder behind Blair Berners located in Eagle Mountain, UT. I am a breeder who is dedicated to breeding healthy dogs responsibly. We do ENS, socialization/exposures, potty training, and crate training with our puppies. They are raised in our family home and get lots of love, cuddles, and play time from both people and our senior and adult family dogs.

Q. & A. with Alyssa

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I fell in love with the Bernese breed when I was searching for a puppy that would be the perfect fit for me back in 2020. Once I adopted Cleopatra, I fell in love with the breed even more. I adore her and her sweet, clever, expressive personality. I decided I wanted to dedicate myself to helping others find the perfect Bernese puppy for their family and lifestyle.
  • What makes your program special?

    All of our dogs are health and genetically tested before we move forward with breeding them. We are fully dedicated to breeding responsibly in order to preserve and improve the health and standard of Bernese Mountain Dogs. We do Early Neurological Stimulation, socialization, potty and crate training with all of our puppies. Our goal is to raise healthy, happy, loving, and well-adjusted puppies.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are black rust and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
