NW Bernese
Meet the breeder
I'm Priscilla G., the breeder behind NW Bernese located in Washougal, WA. We’re so excited to be able to help families experience the longtime loyalty of welcoming a new puppy into their lives! Our dog captured our hearts right from the start and we found ourselves wanting to get more involved. Breeding was a natural next step and we haven’t looked back since!
Q. & A. with Priscilla
Why did you start breeding?
Once we found the breed that would be perfect for our family, we decided to keep exploring and researching. We spent two years preparing and asking questions from other breeders about their breeding program. After much learning we decided that we wanted to continue to support the breed through this avenue.What makes your program special?
Our breeding program is special because of the warmth that is received from our family home. The puppies are loved and appropriately stimulated from Day 1. The puppies are in a clean and safe space that is in the middle of our living area. We have integrity in aligning to ethical breeding recommendations.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
