What’s better than a 27-inch-tall ball of fluff welcoming you home? Three of them, apparently.
A TikTok video of three Bernese Mountain Dogs giving their owner a heartwarming welcome home has perfectly captured the profound joy that comes from being a dog owner. The clip is an instant cure for a bad day, reminding viewers of the unconditional love and happiness that a pet provides.
“When you come home to this it’s impossible to stay sad…The warmest welcome,” the owner, @bramblethebernese, captioned the video, which shows the three dogs jumping up over the front yard fence.
A Look at the Gentle Giants
The Bernese Mountain Dog is a large, powerful worker with a “sweet, affectionate nature,” according to the American Kennel Club. They are known for being “strikingly beautiful,” with a thick, silky, tricolored coat of black, white and rust. Their sheer size, standing over 27 inches at the shoulder, makes their gentle demeanor even more striking. The AKC noted in a blog post that while they get along with the entire family, they often become particularly attached to one human.
True to their reputation, the dogs in the video appear placid yet eager to please, a hallmark of the breed.
Addressing the Concerns
The video’s comments section included some viewers who were concerned about the dogs’ living space due to their large size in comparison to the small front yard.
“Are they not a big for a small property? Don’t mean to offend you,” one person wrote, while another person said: “You need a bigger yard for these babies.”
The poster was quick to provide a reassuring clarification.
“No offended, don’t worry. This is only the front bit to the house; there is a much bigger back garden out the back and the house isn’t small,” they wrote. This response not only addressed the concern but also reinforced the care these dog breed beauties are receiving.
The Power of a Dog’s Greeting
For many viewers, the video was a source of instant happiness.
“So, you live in heaven?” one person asked in response to the video.
“I could have a terrible day at work, and this would put a huge smile on my face!” one person commented. Another user, inspired by the trio, said: “That’s it. I’m getting a third dog.”
The powerful bond between the dogs and their owner was a central theme in the comments. One person eloquently summed it up, writing: “It’s just so wonderful how much dogs make us feel so important, so needed, so loved and appreciated. Thank you, you’re the best welcoming committee.”
The owner of a single Bernese Mountain Dog also weighed in, saying: “[Oh my god], With three berners, I would never want to leave the house…having one is bad enough. He’s the best.”
The video is a reminder of the pure, unfiltered love that a pet can bring into a home, making even the worst days a little bit better.
