Q. & A. with Lacey
Why did you start breeding?
My husband, Shane, bred Golden Retrievers growing up. They were his best friends. He loved caring for the puppies and learning all about their health and wellness. I grew up with a huge German Shepherd that I loved & took running. When we got married we knew we would have 2 family dogs. Shane told me about Berners and we knew this is the perfect dog for our family! Big, Beautiful & Intelligent!
What makes your program special?
Shane's breeding experience & Lacey's extensive research & our commitment to do it right makes Reeves Bernese a phenomenal breeding program. Bernese Mountain Dogs are very special dogs & they deserve the best! We will only breed the best and most healthy dogs! Once our puppies arrive we are ready to introduce them to the world in the right way - with early stimulation, socialization and more!
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.

Bernese Mountain Dog
About Roxy
Roxy is a Healthy, Happy, Well mannered and Beautiful AKC Bernese Mountain Dog.
She is fully Health Tested with OFA Hips, Elbows, Cardiac, Eyes & Diseases such as: SOD1, SOD1 (Bernese Mountain Dog Type) and Von Willebrand Disease. She's fed a premium diet and has a gorgeous Rust, Black and White coat.
Roxy is a member of BernerGuarde and has participated in the AKC Good Citizen Award program (she'll take her test soon, she went into heat when her test was planned). Roxy is well trained and went through the Fenrir Perfect Puppy Course, which is a phenomenal full year of training!
Roxy is a tall, beautiful, and blocky Berner. She is a gentle giant that loves to play with dogs of all sizes and people of all ages. She loves being on the ground to snuggle our young kids and babies. And yet, she’s always ready to get up and run around and play tug a war or go for a walk with mom and dad, or even the kids holding the leash. Roxy is the most friendly dog I’ve ever known, she never growls or snarls no matter the situation. She got to practice being a mama last year when we brought home our 2nd Berner at 8 weeks old. Roxy was so gentle and loving with our new pup, Peaches! We can’t wait to see Roxy with her own puppies in a few weeks!
