Breed Information

Overview

The Miniature Bernese Mountain Dog is a cross between a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a Bernese Mountain Dog. Most of the time, the Mini Bernese Mountain Dog looks similar to its purebred counterpart just on a smaller scale. They make great family companions for owners who love the Berner look, but don’t have the space or capacity to care for a large dog breed.

Temperament

Because this is a mixed breed, a Miniature Bernese Mountain Dog can take on the traits of either or both of their parent breeds. In general, a Mini Berner is friendly, sweet, intelligent, and obedient. With some of the most affectionate dog breeds as parents, they love people and crave human attention and affection. This means they tend to get along well with children and other dogs. Both of the parent breeds have a prey drive and an urge to chase, so they may not make a good candidate for being off-leash unless they are in a securely fenced-in area. They do tend to do well with pets in the household that they have been raised and socialized with. Because they tend to be so friendly, provided they are well-socialized, they do not make good watchdogs or guard dogs. They may bark at a stray animal or stranger at the door, but they don’t tend to be overly noisy unless they have been trained into the habit. Overall, they are versatile, sturdy dogs that are loving and affectionate companions.

Did You Know?

Although the original cross for this breed is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a smaller Bernese Mountain Dog, there are now enough dogs and lines for multigenerational crosses. Miniature Bernese Dog puppies can also have two Mini Berners or a Mini Berner and a small Bernese Mountain Dog as parents.
