The Bernese Mountain Dog is a large dog breed, one of the four Sennenhund-type dogs from the Swiss Alps. These dogs have roots in the Roman mastiffs. The name Sennenhund is derived from the German Senne ("alpine pasture") and Hund, as they accompanied the alpine herders and dairymen called Senn. Berner refers to the area of the breed's origin, in the canton of Bern. This breed was originally kept as a general farm dog. Large Sennenhunde in the past was also used as draft animals, pulling carts. The breed was officially established in 1912.

Like the other Sennenhund, the Bernese mountain dog is a large, heavy dog with a distinctive tri-colored coat, black with white chest and rust-colored markings above eyes, sides of the mouth, front of legs, and out around the white chest. However, it is the only breed of Sennenhund dog with a long coat. The ideal of a perfectly marked individual gives the impression of a white horseshoe shape around the nose, always black. There is a white "Swiss cross" on the chest when viewed from the front. A "Swiss kiss" is a white mark located typically behind the neck, but maybe a part of the neck. A full ring would not meet the type standard. The AKC breed standard lists disqualifications, blue eye color, and any ground color other than black.

Considered a dry-mouthed breed, the Bernese mountain dog is slightly longer than tall, highly muscular, with a strong, wide back. The head of a Bernese mountain dog is flat on the top with a moderate stop, and the ears are medium-sized, triangular, set high, and rounded at the top. The teeth have a scissors bite. The legs of the Bernese are straight and strong, with round, arched toes. The dewclaws of the Bernese are often removed. Its bushy tail is carried low.

The breed standard for the Bernese mountain dog states that dogs should not be "aggressive, anxious or distinctly shy," but rather should be "good-natured," "self-assured," "placid towards strangers," and "docile."

Bernese mountain dogs are a breed that generally does well with children, as they are very affectionate. They are patient dogs that take well to children climbing over them. Though they have great energy, a Bernese will also be happy with a calm evening.
