Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Cameo located in Fox Lake, IL. We breed to both help ensure the future of the Bernese Mountain Dog and to improve upon our dogs' fantastic traits with each generation. Our dogs are outstanding Bernese Mountain Dogs. We take pride in both their accomplishments in the ring and their amazing temperaments and abilities at home. They produce wonderful pups, and we are happy to be able to provide other families and individuals with extraordinary Bernese Mountain Dog puppies.

Sherry’s experience

  • About Sherry

    I grew up in Chicago with a family dog. I have worked for veterinarians, both small animal and equine, as groomer, tech, and everything in between since 95. It was love at first sight with Berners. Got my first one in 96. That’s when I started showing.

  • What makes Sherry’s program special

    I do the best I can to make good dogs. I breed for myself first, and they truly are my family. My dogs are my only kids.
