Tenacity Bernese Mountain Dogs
Meet the breeder
I'm Erica H., the breeder behind Tenacity Bernese Mountain Dogs located in Liberty Township, OH. Raw fed and naturally reared Bernese Mountain Dog Puppies in Cincinnati, Ohio My purpose in breeding is to preserve the Bernese Mountain Dog and try to increase health span while maintaining the perfect Berner temperament that I started with. A balanced dog with type, desire to work and that moves with ease is important to me. I can't guarantee perfect health and a specific lifespan, but extensive research is put into each litter to increase the odds of long lived healthy dogs.
