Bernese Mountain Dogs are
plagued by a number of serious health problems. Hip and elbow
dysplasia, cancers, autoimmune disease, and bloat are just some of the
ailments that occur frequently in Bernese. Some of these
problems are genetic and will require generations of good breeding to
bring under control. The Berner-Garde Foundation
and the BMDCA Health Committee work together to improve the health of
Bernese Mountain Dogs by collecting data and educating breeders and
owners.
