My Bergamasco is definitely more of an observer. They’ll hang back and watch new people from a distance for a bit before deciding to join in. It's part of their cautious nature.

Without a doubt, yes.

My Bergamasco has this quirky habit of trying to catch raindrops with his mouth. Watching him leap around in the rain is one of the funniest things I’ve seen. He looks so determined, and it always brings a smile to my face.

Grooming a Bergamasco Sheepdog can be a bit of an adventure, but I’ve found a routine that works well for us. I focus on brushing several times a week to keep the coat from matting. The cords are prone to tangling, so checking regularly is key. I also make sure to bathe him every couple of months, using a gentle shampoo to maintain his coat's natural oils. I never use a hairdryer; instead, I let him air dry, which helps preserve those unique cords. A good grooming session becomes a bonding time for us, and I reward him with treats for being such a good boy during the process.

question · Bergamasco Shepherd Dog

Every time we go for a walk, someone asks if they can touch my Bergamasco's coat 😂 Does that happen to anyone else almost every day?

answer · Bergamasco Shepherd Dog

I didn't expect him to be so gentle with kids. He's a big dog, but he turns into a total softy around them.

answer · Bergamasco Shepherd Dog

Same energy here.
