How to keep your Bernese Mountain Dog cool in the heat! Avoid heatstroke! 

Thank you for putting this info out there!! It is essential for Berner owners to know and understand this. And I've seen it time and again, but please to all Bernese owners, DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT ever get your Berners shaved or hair trimmed back for the summer. As Stacy mentioned, keep the undercoat cleaned out instead. Their coat is how the regulate their internal temperature. Manage keeping your Berner cool in the a/c as much as possible, shorter potty breaks, stay away from mid-afternoon sun, early morning or night time walks, a kiddie pool of cool water and always have cool, fresh water for them around exercising. Did I say NO shaving???

Stacy words cannot express how great your short training videos are and how useful they are in training our new girl Bryn. She is our 4th Berner and I have never started training so young - at 9 weeks. Even out breeder Maureen Greaves is impressed. Seeing how you trained Hasey showed what is possible with a young Berner. Bryn is now 14 weeks and knows her name, comes when you call her, can sit, down, stand, shake a paw, touch, wait, crawl and I am now adding the come command as per your videos. The touch command is so helpful on walks. Your videos showed what is possible and indeed it is possible. Thanks

Thanks! I'm in Arizona and adopted a large breed puppy, black, thick coat, so this is very helpful.

Always love your videos! We have a three month old berner and have been watching your videos on repeat! I would love it if you made a video showcasing every must have item for a berner owner!

Great video for summer with the dog's ❤🐕

Hi thank you Stacy for AMAZING VIDEO and great information, learned a lot, AGAIN THANK FOR THE WORK THA YOU DO..

You can put a 2liter in freezer to set in from of that size fan and your Berner will love the cooler air.

Great information!! Love the thermometer! I have a wire crate. North Carolina weather near the Mountains is ideal for them. Early a.m walks and evening walks.🐾❤

Great video and information, thank you

Best way Ive learned to cool off Bernie is only go outside for potty breaks during the late spring & summer. 2am-3am playtime

Buying a cooling vest right now thanks for info.

Loved this very informative video, thanks Stacy! Im interested in the Cool Coats but unfortunately, do not subscribe to Facebook.

Are their temperatures taken rectally? We're getting our boy in about 6 weeks so I'm working on my shopping list. It is HOT in San Diego lately so this was great timing for this video

Hi Stacy, where do your dogs sleep at night? You mention metal crates, we have a custom built wood and metal crate, my dog ( he’s just turned 2 years) chooses to go there throughout the day and has slept in his crate since the day I brought him home. I just worry that he can’t stretch completely fully although the crate is 60 inches by 40 inches. My dog in on the extra large tall and long side! (He can sit up without touching the top and turn around, also lay with legs out straight) Thank you for your tips and training. I’ve found them to be so helpful.

Hi Stacy. Love your videos. I really like your green cooling coat but can’t seem to find any online. Where’d you get it? I’m looking for something simple without the glitter and bling 😉 thanks in advance!

How often to brush?

Best brush for bernese mountain dogs?

hi! support from singapore here but 70°C as a temp? it gets humid and hot here at 33°-34° and it’s considered a heatwave, wldnt 70° be a tad bit much 😳 j double checking so that I get the info as clearly as I can

NO WIRE CRATES EVER. SO DANGEROUS. Using a plastic crate in first weeks to learn a few house rules. BUT just know dogs die everyday in those cheap wire crates. They CAN try to escape and get their neck stuck and die(other tricks they can do as well)
