Meet the Parents

Scarlett is the heart of our home and the gentle soul behind Hearthside Berners & Doodles. From the moment she joined our family, it was clear she carried something special — a calm presence, an intuitive spirit, and a sweetness that draws everyone close. She is fully AKC registered Bernese Mountain Dog.

She is incredibly intelligent and eager to learn, responding to guidance with focus and grace. Well-trained and attentive, Scarlett moves through our busy home with patience and steadiness, always aware, always connected.

But what makes her truly extraordinary is her heart. She adores our children — following them from room to room, laying nearby during homework, and offering quiet comfort during both giggles and hard days. Her gentleness isn’t trained — it’s who she is.

Scarlett is currently working toward becoming a therapy dog in my psychotherapy practice, The Therapy Room- Mind and Wellness, where her calm presence will help clients feel safe and at ease as they walk through difficult seasons. Her ability to sit quietly, lean in softly, and simply be present is a gift.

She is affectionate without being overwhelming, loyal without being demanding, and strong yet endlessly tender — everything we love about the Bernese Mountain Dog breed.

Scarlett is not only a beautiful representation of her breed; she is a cherished member of our family. And the gentle, loving qualities she carries are exactly what we hope to pass on to the puppies she raises here in our home.
