Greater Swiss Mountain Dog
The Greater Swiss Mountain Dog is a powerful, good-natured and family-devoted dog, historically a farm worker in the Swiss mountains. It is calm and friendly with children, but its size and strength call for early training and socialisation.

集合住宅向き
Not suited to a small apartment because of its size and weight; more comfortable in a house with a yard.
お手入れ
Moderate daily walks of 1–1.5 hours; feed 2–3 small meals and avoid exercise after eating because of bloat risk; do not overwork puppies before growth is complete; brush weekly, more often when shedding

Gastric torsion (bloat), hip and elbow dysplasia, splenic torsion, epilepsy, entropion and distichiasis, osteochondritis

Short, dense double coat, tricolour
旅行
Needs a roomy car or van; avoid overheating in hot weather; plan how a dog this heavy will get in and out of the vehicle.
キャリーサイズ
A very large breed: needs the largest crate size; not eligible for the cabin, and cargo-hold carriage in an IATA crate is not available on every airline.
ハーネスサイズ
Size XL, chest girth typically 85–105 cm; a wide harness with soft padding
リード
A very strong 1.5–2 m leash, 2.5 cm or wider; the dog is heavy and strong, so loose-leash walking should be trained early.
