Zebedee is Daphne and Oskar's son, our first generation stud prospect. He is such a beautiful example of our efforts to achieve our breed's health, temperament, and conformity to its standard. Zebedee is an AKC Grand Champion.  He became an AKC Champion at just 13 months old winning over adult Champions. We knew he was special as a puppy when he was evaluated by 5 AKC Judges as a very promising show prospect.  He has earned his IABCA National Senior Puppy Champion - NatSR & IABCA International Senior Puppy Champion - IntSR. 

 What sets Zebedee apart is his effortless movement. He moves with exceptional reach, drive, balance, and fluidity, covering ground with the smooth, efficient gait that the Bernese Mountain Dog was bred to possess. His movement is consistently one of the qualities most admired by judges and breed enthusiasts alike. 

He is health tested clear and has a great family history of excellent longevity lines as well as a history of good OFA results and clear genetic tests.  His pedigree combines accomplished European champion bloodlines with generations of health-tested Bernese Mountain Dogs.  His ancestry reflects generations of thoughtful selection for structure, temperament, health, and longevity.  He is the pride of our program. We have done preliminary OFA Hips and Elbow screenings with good results.  His personality is humble and sweet as can be. He is handsome and his movement is highly complimented by judges as smooth, stately and balanced.

 Affectionate family dogs.  Big, powerful, and built for hard work, the Bernese Mountain Dog is also strikingly beautiful and blessed with a sweet, affectionate nature. Berners are generally placid but are always up for a romp with the owner, whom they live to please. The Bernese Mountain Dog is a large, sturdy worker who can stand over 27 inches at the shoulder. The thick, silky, and moderately long coat is tricolored: jet black, clear white, and rust. The distinctive markings on the coat and face are breed hallmarks and, combined with the intelligent gleam in the dark eyes, add to the Berner's aura of majestic nobility. A hardy dog who thrives in cold weather, the Berner's brain and brawn helped him multitask on the farms and pastures of Switzerland. Berners get along with the entire family and are particularly gentle with children, but they will often become more attached to one lucky human. Berners are imposing but not threatening, and they maintain an aloof dignity with strangers. Grooming:  The Bernese Mountain Dog has a double coat, with a longer outer coat and a wooly undercoat. Berners shed a fair amount, even more so during shedding season, which occurs twice a year. Weekly brushing & daily during shedding season will help to remove loose hair and keep the dog looking his best. Any tangles can be worked out with a slicker brush or metal comb. As with all breeds, the nails should be trimmed regularly, as overly long nails can cause the dog pain and structural problems.  Early socialization and obedience puppy training are important for all dogs, but especially so for breeds as large as the Bernese Mountain Dog. Berners are intelligent and eager to please, so they are usually easy to train. They are also affectionate and openhearted; their feelings are easily hurt, and so they don't respond well to harsh corrections or training methods. As responsible bernese mountain dog breeders we try to expose our puppies to various common noises and energy levels to cause them to adapt well to their new families. A Berner wants to be with his family and it is not recommended to leave them alone for long periods of time.
