Swiss Mountain Dogs playing on Halloween 10-31-2012 - #

3 of the 4 Schweizer Sennenhund, a Grosser Schweizer Sennenhund (Greater Swiss Mountain Dog), a Berner (Bernese) and an Appenzeller (same in English) get together for a play session. The oldest of the 3 is the Greater Swiss male, which was a little more reserved than the 2 females who play together often. The Bernese is the most familiar and the Swiss National Dog, easily identified with the longer coat. The Greater Swiss Mountain Dog is the big guy and the curly tailed Appenzeller is the smallest although still growing at only 6 months of age.
