The Bergamasco Sheepdog is a breed of dog. This breed is suited even as a guard and companion dog. Bergamascos are bright, loyal, loving, and trainable with a dash of mountain-dog independence. They take to watching over loved ones with a serene vigilance. The Bergamasco has a particular affinity for children and appoints himself as their watcher. Bergamasco is very good at sussing people and situations out. The Bergamasco is highly athletic, so plenty of exercise is important for his physical and mental health.
