Greater Swiss Mountain Dog

The Greater Swiss Mountain dog breed was developed to be an all-around working dog, herding cattle, pulling carts, and standing guard. These days, the Swissy enjoys life as a family pet, but because of his working heritage, he enjoys being busy.

Fans of the breed affectionately call these dogs “Swissy.” Even though they are purebred dogs, you may still find them in shelters and breed specific rescues, so remember to adopt! Don’t shop!size
