Boiadeiro de Berna/Bernese Mountain Dog

The Berner Sennenhund, called in English the Bernese Mountain Dog, is a large breed of dog, one of the four breeds of Sennenhund-type dogs from the Swiss Alps. The name Sennenhund refers to people called Senn, herders in the Swiss Alps. Berner (or Bernese in English) refers to the area of the breed's origin, in the Canton of Berne in Switzerland. Originally kept as general farm dogs, large Sennenhunds in the past were also used as draft animals, pulling carts.The Bernese Mountain Dog (Berner Sennenhund), like the other Sennenhund, is believed to have descended from Roman molossers, crossed with the livestock guardian dogs of the indigenous people of the Alps in antiquity.The breed was used as an all purpose farm dog, for guarding property and livestock, and for driving cattle in the areas around Berne. The type was originally called the Dürrbächler, for a small town (Dürrbach) where the tricoloured dogs were especially noticeable. In Berne, weavers used the dogs as draft animals but the dogs declined in number through the 1800s. In the early 1900s, fanciers exhibited the few examples of the large dogs at shows in Berne, and in 1907 a few breeders from the Burgdorf region founded the first breed club, the "Schweizerische Dürrbach-Klub", and wrote the first Standard which defined the dogs as a separate breed. By 1910, there were already 107 registered members of the breed Like the other Sennenhunds, the Bernese Mountain Dog is a large, heavy dog with a distinctive tricoloured coat, black with white chest and tan (or rust) colored markings above eyes, sides of mouth, front of legs, and a small amount around the white chest. An ideal of a perfectly-marked individual gives the impression of a white horse shoe shape around the nose and a white Swiss cross on the chest, when viewed from the front. Both males and females have a broad head with smallish, v-shaped drooping ears. Height at the withers is 2327.5 in (5870 cm) and weight is 65120 lb (2954 kg). Females are slightly smaller than males. The breed standard lists as faults "Aggressive, anxious or distinctly shy" and a distinctly curly coat, along with wry mouth and wall eye.Exact colour and pattern of the coat are also described as important.O boiadeiro de Berna (também conhecido pelos nomes de Berner Sennenhund, em alemão, e Bouvier Bernois, em francês, ou ainda cão da montanha de Berna) é uma raça de cães de trabalho originária do cantão de Berna, na Suíça.Os Berner, como são normalmente chamados, são uma raça de cães tricolores de grandes proporções, medindo 58 a 70 cm na altura dos ombros. Os padrões da raça não delimitam o peso dos animais, mas ele costuma variar entre 30 e 60 kg. A raça pode ser facilmente identificada pelo padrão tricolor da pelagem: corpo, pescoço, pernas, cabeça e orelhas são totalmente pretos; o rosto, os pés e as marcas sobre os olhos são cor de ferrugem ou marrom; os dedos, o peito, o focinho, a ponta da cauda e uma faixa entre os olhos são brancos. O padrão de cores é rígido e pode variar ligeiramente apenas na quantidade de branco. Um cão com a marca do peito perfeita apresenta uma marca em forma de "cruz suíça" branca quando visto de frente na posição sentada. Os olhos são de um marrom escuro marcante e de forma amendoada. Os Boiadeiros de Berna machos são geralmente maiores que as fêmeas, mas ambos os gêneros são igualmente fortes.
