Heather Collins

Heather Collins, Bernese mountain dogs, New York, NY in Central New York near Utica. She has over a decade of experience, maintains American Kennel Club registration, and her dogs undergo routine health screening for hips, elbows, eyes, and cardiac function.

All puppies are raised in the home and have daily interactions with family members, children, and visiting guests to ensure early socialization in a gentle, consistent environment. Nestled on a natural farm, they enjoy expansive pastures and supervised playtime with other farm animals under the breeder’s attentive care.

Litter sizes are kept small to focus on individual temperament and well-being, and Heather shares regular updates and photos with prospective owners. Her emphasis on balanced nutrition, ongoing training basics, and open communication has earned praise from families seeking steady-tempered companions. Prospective owners appreciate the transparency in her process, with meet-and-greet visits and detailed guidance through each stage of puppy development.
