A LITTLE BIT ABOUT US
Hey! Welcome to Reeves Bernese!
​
We're the Reeves! We have 5 young girls and 2 big dogs! We love being together and going out adventuring with our dogs. We think Bernese Mountain Dogs are the BEST so we're thrilled to get to share the love of this amazing breed with many more friends and families!
​
Bernese Mountain Dogs are clearly gorgeous! They are also loyal, loving, cuddly, playful, chill, adventurous, gentle and very trainable!
​
For 10 years we have planned, researched and prepared for these cute puppies! Our adult dogs are fully Health Tested, AKC Registered, on BernerGuard and GoodDog.com
​
We raise our puppies with Puppy Culture Techniques and the BAB Curriculum to give our pups the best start possible. These programs have been proven to increase the puppies health, temperament and happiness for life! The BAB Puppy Evaluations help us place our puppies with the right home and family. After we've evaluated the puppies (at 7 weeks old), we'll chat with each person on our waitlist and give suggestions accordingly. You will then get to pick your puppy in the order of the wait list.
​
We fully believe the puppy that is the happiest with you and makes you the happiest is the perfect match!
OUR FOCUS
THOROUGH HEALTH TESTING
Before any breeding happens here our dogs are fully health tested with OFA Hips, Elbows, Cardiac, Eyes & Genetically Cleared for diseases such as SOD1, SOD1B and Von Willebrand Disease.
HEALTH TESTING
QUALITY PUPPY RAISING
We discovered the Puppy Culture Program and fell in love with their intentional puppy raising! More recently we found out about BAB or Badass Breeder and have been so impressed with all their curriculum adds to Puppy Culture. Especially the BAB's Puppy Evaluations. We now incorporate aspects of both curriculums to give our puppies the best start to life.
Among many other things, these programs emphasize the importance of puppies Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), and Early Scent Introduction (ESI).
PUPPY RAISING
FOUNDATION FOR TRAINING
Owning a dog is a big deal and owning a giant breed makes training and behavior extra important. That's why we intentionally prepare our puppies for their future training. We highly encourage our puppy families to start thinking about what their puppy training plan is. We also offer helpful tips to our puppy families and point them to a few phenomenal puppy training programs to help get them set up for a happy life with their gorgeous big pup! We've secured one excellent discount for one program and are always searching for more high quality puppy programs to help support our puppy families.

"Ruby has been a fantastic addition to our family. The Reeve’s set us up for a successful puppyhood with trainer recommendations and discount codes, socialization checklists, the food they were eating, a collar, a brush, and some toys and treats. The puppies had already been socialized so much! If you want the best dog breed ever and a leg up on socialization and training the Reeves Bernese are the way to go! They are ethical, organized, clean, and caring dog breeders. Best decision we made last year!"

"Reeves Bernese was thoughtful and helpful during this entire process. My husband and I live out of state which made things slightly more difficult but Lacey took the time to FaceTime multiple times and send photos checking in. Overall, a great experience and we couldn’t be happier to have our little girl. She (puppy) is full of energy and spunk, a little sassiness but mostly love and sweetness."

"Our experience with Reeves Bernese was wonderful. You can tell that Lacey is knowledgable and continues to learn about the breed. She communicates well and is beyond friendly. It was a true pleasure working with her. Our pup Jupiter is so fun. He has all the attributes that drew us to the breed. including being good with kids. He's silly, loving, and listens well. He's 10 months now, pushing 90 pounds and thinks he's a lap dog. We love it."

We were first time dog owners and so of course had a lot of questions. Lacey was so responsive and gave me great information so I could make sure we were ready to bring a dog into our family. We got many updates along the way and that was helpful! We move Maggie. She is happy, was easy to crate train, has done well with noises and other people since the day we brought her home! I think a large part of that is how she was handled as a little puppy. I would recommend Reeves Bernese to anyone looking for a great family dog.

"They were amazing to work with from beginning to end. I'm a first time BMD owner and even still, I'll ask Lacey questions and she is so helpful with all my questions!! She (Puppy) has a really fun personality and is very loving. I think Reeves did a fabulous job, she had lots of photos and updates and meets and plenty of info up until pickup. And then, they provided us a bundle of goodies to go home on and a binder full of information on how to help us settle in with our new little Berner. I would definitely recommend them!!"

"Amazing! I can't say enough good things about Lacey and my experience with her and her puppies. She did great work with the pups the first 8 weeks and continued to be a great resource for advice and training. Lacey was very involved and informative through the whole process. We got great weekly updates and pictures."
