about us

From the moment I first laid eyes on the beautiful tri-colour markings and prominent stature of the Bernese Mountain Dog (BMD), it was love at first sight. When I was ready and able I finally bought my own BMD. This developed into a dream to breed these amazing dogs with love and genuine commitment to bettering the breed. At Freiberners, our number one priority is ensuring that our dogs are happy, healthy, even-tempered, and properly cared for. We only allow dogs into our breeding program that are CKC registered, with hip, elbow, heart and eye clearances, and who are clear of Von Willebrands and DM diseases. All of our dogs are raised inside of our home, as they are a part of our family! We’ve enjoyed sharing our passion for the BMD with our two young daughters (7 and 5) who love helping to care for our pups. We are located just outside of Guelph ON, Canada.

When I purchased my first BMD puppy, the process was quite overwhelming. What was I looking for? How did I know I could trust the breeder? Were they following ethical breeding practices? So many questions, and so few answers. This experience made it important to me to be fully transparent, and support our puppy parents through all stages of the process. By focusing on an education first approach, it is our goal to make sure everyone feels comfortable and confident on their new puppy journey. The support and communication does not end when you take your puppy home. We encourage new owners to stay connected to us and other clients through our Facebook and Instagram handles. We are also happy to answer any questions new puppy parents may have. We’ve been there ourselves, and love to help!
