Family Berners - Westcliffe, Colorado

We picked up our sweet pup yesterday and she has given us nothing but joy. Family Berners went above and beyond for our family and we couldn’t be more grateful. I will recommend them over and over again!

We previously bought a puppy from the previous owners who was an amazing dog, but unfortunately was diagnosed with epilepsy within the two year health guarantee. After a year, we decided to go ahead and get another puppy. We fully expected to pay for her, but Maynard gave her to us completely for free due to the breach of the previous contract. This really shows his character and professionalism considering he didn’t even own the business at the time and has an entirely different set of dogs. Again, we are so grateful and appreciate how they run their business.

I had the wonderful experience of purchasing a Bernese Mountain Dog puppy from Family Berners, and I can’t recommend them highly enough! From the very beginning, the process was smooth and stress-free. Family Berners was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the breed, answering all of my questions with patience and providing insights into the care and upbringing of our puppy.

Our puppy, whom we named Denali, has been a joy to have in our family. He is not only healthy but also well-socialized and has a fantastic temperament. It’s clear that Family Berners prioritizes the health and well-being of their dogs, and this has certainly made a difference in our experience as new puppy owners.

We absolutely love the Bernese Mountain dog breed, and our experience with Family Berners has only deepened that love. If you’re looking for a reputable breeder who truly cares about their dogs, I highly recommend Family Berners. Thank you for making our puppy dreams come true!

These folks are FANTASTIC!! We recently got our new puppy, Thorin, from Family Berners after a looong and exhausting search looking for *just* the right breeder. We could not be happier!!! The puppies are all incredibly healthy, extremely loving, perfectly treated, and have clearly been raised with the utmost care! They are started on high quality food, love, and reared in the most wonderful home! We cannot thank Family Berners enough for our beautiful boy!! Our own vet was simply astonished with how healthy and fit he is! If you're looking for the best dang pupper you could ever want in your life, trust me, look no further. These folks and their incredible pups are worth every penny, every mile, and absolutely worthy of your consideration. I cannot sing their praises enough!

Highly recommend!! We got our puppy from them and you can tell he was so loved and cared for. Grizzly is gentle and the biggest sweetie. He is SO good with our kids, loves to be right there with you. Such a happy good boy. You couldn’t find better dogs or easier people to work with. Merle was amazing!!

We got our pup (my sister in law got hers as well from the same litter) from Family Berners almost a year ago. We are so happy we got an extremely perfectly healthy, happy, fun, loving, and family oriented pup. Our Jean is a true part of our family and if we ever get another Berner I know we will go with Family Berners. Merle was so kind and professional with us, plus let us see the puppies he had available to see which one would steal our hearts and have a connection with (before having to make a deposit because a connection is huge for us). Thank you!

My Puppy Baxter was born September of 2022, he crossed the rainbow bridge yesterday. He was diagnosed with CHRONIC kidney failure. This was out of nowhere…. I recommend if you buy from this breeder that you get bloodwork ran to ensure your Berner is healthy. Baxter was only 1 year 8 months.

Merle was fantastic to work with. Although he was on vacation when we picked up our pup, he was extremely quick to respond and very helpful. Our Berner puppy was incredibly sweet, well mannered, and joyful from the start (got her at 5 months old) which I think says a lot about the breeders environment. Could not be happier with her and would highly recommend Family Berners to anyone.

Merle is a great guy and was a pleasure to do business with. Very quick to respond to us and answered all of our questions thoroughly. We are so happy that we got our puppy from Family Berners and would recommend them to anyone. We looked at a lot of breeders before going with Family Berners and have nothing but great thing to say about the whole experience.
