All of us who are "owned" by Bernese Mountain Dogs (and those of us who wish to be owned by BMDs) want our dogs to have a superior quality of life for as many years as possible. In order to help accomplish this goal, Berner-Garde Foundation has established an open database for genetic tracking, a health information center, and has also supported university research grants for diseases that are genetically present in our breed.

Although the "people-work" for these efforts is done by volunteers, technological hardware/software, website expenses and normal foundation business expenses depend on the generosity of Berner-loving people like you. Funding for Berner-Garde comes from fund-raising projects, donations and In Memorium/In Honor/With Gratitude Gifts.

Berner-Garde is a not for profit 501 c 3 organization which means that your donation is tax deductible. Please send your contribution to:

Berner-Garde Treasurer
