The Bernefie is not a purebred
dog. It is a cross between Bernese Mountain Dog
and the Newfoundland.
The best way to determine the temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all
breeds in the cross and know you can get any combination of any of the
characteristics found in either breed. This hybrid cross is recognized by the
American Canine Hybrid Club. Not all of these
designer hybrid dogs being bred are 50% purebred to 50% purebred. It is very
common for breeders to breed multi-generation crosses.
