Bello v Schlossgut, SSB 3965, born in 1905 in Shoentannen (Duerbach region, canton of Berne). Pedigree unknown. Shown in 1908 in Langenthal near Berne by Mr Schertenleib, 67 cm (26.4”) at withers, with good colors and symmetrical markings. This dog is the first recog- nized in 1908 by the great supporter of the Swiss Mtn Dogs, Albert Heim, as not just another short haired Berner but as...”a representation of the almost extinct former ‘Butchers dogs’, the ‘Great Swiss Mountain Dogs’. Thus the last of the four Swiss Mountain and Cattle dog breeds gained recognition and pure breeding began.[1]
