Chalet Bernese
      
      We are Patty and Pascal Gartmann.  We live in SW 
Ohio with our dogs,  Our children are grown and 
married now.  Pascal was born and raised in 
Switzerland and always wanted to own a Bernese 
Mountain Dog.  Katie and Leesa were also born in 
Switzerland as we lived there for about five years 
before moving to Ohio.  Pascal's life-long dream of 
owning a Berner was fulfilled when we brought 
Sophie home!! We have been in love with this breed 
ever since.  Ava brought us into the world of 
showing/conformation.  We are active in several 
Bernese Mountain Dog Clubs, training obedience, 
conformation and drafting.
      
      
All of our Bernese Mountain Dogs are raised in our home.  They are 
members of our family and loved and cherished as such.  They do not live 
in a kennel environment.  We have only a small number of Berners so 
that they will receive the proper attention, exercise, love and vet care 
that they deserve. :-)   We are very passionate about our dogs and as 
breeders we strive to only bring healthy, happy, well-balanced puppies 
into this world.  All litters/pedigrees are carefully researched.  We breed 
on occasion and only when we are ready to take on and properly care for 
a litter in our home.  We are very selective when it comes to placing our 
pups.  It is our goal to match family lifestyles to personalities of puppies.
