Parent dogs
Georgia, mom
Bernese Mountain Dog
About Georgia
Georgia is a sweet, mellow, mind of her own, beautiful girl. Georgia is patient while waiting her turn for attention but will always find you sitting on the couch and slowly make her way up to lay right on top of you where she can find a cozy spot to tuck her head on you. She loves being with her sister and playing with her other dog cousins. She is great with kids and normally waiting her turn for them to embrace her with a hug. She never pass up an opportunity to chase a squirrel, but will always return with a little mischief in her face. 😉 She is strong, majestic, & beautiful in appearance.
