Berner-Garde

We have added Koda and her puppies to the Berner-Garde Database (We added individual owner info as "private" so you can decide if you would like to participate)
The Berner-Garde Foundation was established to collect, maintain and disseminate information about genetic diseases observed in the Bernese Mountain Dog.
 Its goal is to help breeders reduce genetic disease while breeding for good temperament and type.
In the future, this collection of information will be the basis for studies researching the cause of genetic disease. 
 It is the hope of all who know and love a Berner that the work of Berner-Garde will lead to an understanding of genetic disease in the breed. 

We plan to continue adding information to the Berner-Garde database as it comes available, including Koda's upcoming OFA test results. (OFA xrays scheduled for Aug 2, 2012)
