About Aislyn
My name is Aislyn, I live in upstate NY with my five kids, our dogs, herd of goats and some rabbits. I've always been an animal lover, and when I met my first Bernese Mountain Dog, I knew they are my true petmate.
What makes Aislyn’s program special
Our puppies are all handled daily and get lots of socializing. I have a Facebook page, Muddy Paw Acres, where our followers get to see our every day life, weekly pupdate pictures and live videos to watch their puppies grow! We know how important it is for families to be involved in their puppies first eight weeks of life, and our Facebook page makes sure that they get to be as involved as possible.

Why Aislyn started breeding
I've always been a "go big or go home," kind of person...with whatever Im doing in life. 😂 After deciding to breed, I dug through all of the research and learned all about health testing, genetics, marketing, and that is how Muddy Paw Acres came to be. We now breed Bernese Mountain Dogs and Golden Retrievers, as well as a fantastic mix, Golden Mountain Dogs.

Great level
Muddy Paw Acres reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Bernese Mountain Dogs.
Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
DNA Disease Panel, Degenerative Myelopathy (DM; SOD1B), Bernese Mountain Dog Type, Degenerative Myelopathy (DM; SOD1A), von Willebrand Disease I (vWD I), DNA Profile
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
