Breed Information

Overview

The Labernese is not a purebred dog. It is a cross between a Labrador Retriever and a Bernese Mountain Dog. The best way to determine the temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and understand that you can get any combination of the characteristics found in either breed. This designer breed is recognized by ACHC (American Canine Hybrid Club).

The Labernese is a cross between a Labrador Retriever and a Bernese Mountain Dog. Although there can be some variability among individual puppies, a Labernese tends to be a friendly, playful, and energetic dog that loves their families.

Although the Labernese is not currently recognized by the American Kennel Club, they are recognized by other notable dog registries. The American Canine Hybrid Club, International Designer Canine Registry, Dog Registry of America, and more all recognize the Labernese.

Temperament

Labernese tend to be gentle giants with open and friendly personalities. These dogs tend to bond closely with their families and may bond even closer with a favorite person of the family. They tend to be playful and energetic, and they can be excitable dogs. Despite their energy, they also tend to have a calm and gentle nature, which means they get along well with children, other dogs, and other pets. As long as they have been properly socialized, they even tend to be open and friendly with strangers. This means that although they may make great watchdogs, they do not tend to make good guard dogs as they are more interested in making friends. You will also want to work with your Labernerse and train your dog to stop barking early on and keep it from becoming a nuisance.

Did You Know?

The Labernese was originally bred to be a service dog that could handle physical assistance. Although some of them still work as service or therapy dogs, they are also commonly found just being a companion and the beloved family pet.
