Meet the breeder

I'm Emily W., the breeder behind Faith’s Bernese located in Broxton, GA. All my dogs are health tested and bred to make wonderful family companions. I’m dedicated to the health, life longevity, and temperament of the breed!

Q. & A. with Emily

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have always loved Bernese and I met my first doing mobile dog grooming. I got 1 and loved her so good I ended up with 3 more and my heart dog Roman!
  • What makes your program special?

    Majority of my dogs have been imported from some of the most famous European kennels. I have hand selected bloodlines to build my own small program of show potential Bernese mountain dogs
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.

  • Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)

    Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.

  • Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)

    Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.

  • DNA Disease Panel, Degenerative Myelopathy (DM; SOD1B), Bernese Mountain Dog Type, Degenerative Myelopathy (DM; SOD1A), von Willebrand Disease I (vWD I), DNA Profile
