Deerpark

Deerpark is a berger Picard and Bernese mountain dog breeder in Parks, AZ, in northern Arizona near Flagstaff. Denise Dean has been involved in berger Picard and Bernese mountain dog breeding for several years and maintains memberships with national breed clubs and the American Kennel Club. Each litter is health tested for hip and eye conditions and raised under veterinary guidance.

Pups live indoors and outdoors among family members and are socialized with children, other pets and occasional visitors to ensure balanced temperaments. The kennel participates in local therapy dog programs, introducing puppies to gentle handling in nursing homes and schools.

The farm’s mix of open pasture and wooded acreage offers ample room for exploration and daily leash walks along pine needle paths. Many families note the dogs’ gentle nature and adaptability, qualities that reflect the careful line selection and hands-on care at Deerpark.
