Always make informed decisions concerning the adoption of a dog.  All breeds have their special qualities and health concerns.  A Swissy is no exception.  Buying a dog is not like buying a loaf of bread.  Where you get your dog, sometimes matters as much as the type of dog that you adopt. The Greater Swiss Mountain Dog,  also known as a Swissy, GSMD or Swiss Mountain Dog is a large breed dog and member of the Working Group.  Swissies originally were used as the "ultimate farm dog".  They are large enough to pull a great amount of weight or a farmer's cart.  They are also athletic enough to herd the livestock and protect the flock, farm and family.  Michigan Swissies are gaining in popularity for these reasons. They are used for many purposes today, but mostly as an excellent companion to the family.  Swissies love their people and prefers to be with them, always.  They compete in the agility ring, weight pulling, herding, tracking, back packing and obedience venues.    A Greater Swiss Mountain Dog has a strong instinct to guard and protect.  Puppies need a great deal of socialization throughout their lifetime.  If you are thinking of buying a Swissy, make sure you have the time, energy, and effort to dedicate to your puppy.  A ounce of prevention is worth a 150lb. of cure especially when you own a Swissy.  Come visit us at Wildest Dream Swissies here in Southern Michigan.
