The pros of having a Bernese Mountain Dog are that they are absolutely loving and fun. They are big goof balls. They are also very people oriented and need to be with thier families. The only con I see is that they do not live as long as other breeds and some do not live past three or four years old. You get so attached to your Bernie.

Pros: best dog in almost every way. Con: lots of fur, but it's so worth it!!
