Bernese Mountain Dog Christmas Sweatshirt: Three Embroidered Berner Puppies in a Tree Costume, Santa Hat and Antlers

This Bernese mountain dog Christmas sweatshirt shows three fluffy Berner puppies with black coats, rust eyebrows and white blazes. The first sits inside a green Christmas tree costume with a yellow star on top and red and yellow ornaments, the second sits in a red Santa hat and knit scarf with its tongue out, and the third stands in a red sweater with reindeer antlers and a shiny red Rudolph nose. It is a ready-made design: choose the color and size, add a name or icon on the sleeve if you like, and we stitch it to order. Every stitch is 100% real embroidery, stitched into the fabric rather than printed.

What is on the Bernese mountain dog Christmas sweatshirt?

The Bernese mountain dog Christmas sweatshirt has 2 parts:

• The front: three Bernese mountain dog puppies in a Christmas tree costume, a Santa hat with a scarf and reindeer antlers with a red sweater, centered across the chest.
• The sleeve (optional): a name, initials or short word and an icon from the font and icon chart, in the font and thread color you choose, on the left or right sleeve.

Which color should you choose?

Pick a color in the options above and the photos switch to it, so you can see the design on that color before you order.

The tricolor puppies stand out most on light and mid-tone colors. On dark colors the black coats blend into the fabric, so the white blazes, rust markings and red, green and gold costumes carry the design, and on colors close to the green tree costume, it sits a little quieter.

How do you order your sweatshirt?

To order your sweatshirt, follow 4 steps:

• Choose the sweatshirt color and size in the options above.
• Choose whether to add sleeve embroidery.
• If you add it, type the name or initials, then pick the icon, font, thread color and sleeve.
• Add it to your cart; we email a free design proof before we stitch.

How do you add a name or icon on the sleeve?

Sleeve embroidery is optional and goes on one sleeve. Type a short name or your initials, such as your Berner’s name, and pick an icon, a font and a thread color from the charts in the photos, or leave the icon off. White thread is preselected because it reads best on the dark sweatshirts; pick Black or another dark thread for the light colors.

Is it a Bernese mountain dog Christmas sweater?

It is a Bernese mountain dog Christmas sweater in spirit, but the garment is a fleece crewneck sweatshirt, not a knit sweater, and it is made for people, not for dogs. Three puppies in three costumes make it a playful Berner Christmas sweatshirt you can wear from the first snow to New Year’s Day.

Is it a good gift for a Berner owner?

Yes. It suits a Bernese mountain dog mom or dad, a family with a new Berner puppy, or a home with more than one big fluffy dog, and it makes an easy Christmas, Secret Santa or holiday party gift. Add their dog’s name or initials on the sleeve to make it personal.

Is there a hoodie or T-shirt version?

There is no hoodie, but there is a T-shirt: the same three Berner puppies come on our Bernese puppies Christmas shirt, a short-sleeve T-shirt. The color and size options above are for the crewneck sweatshirt.

What happens after you order?

We email you a free digital design proof, and you can ask for unlimited edits. Once you approve it, we embroider your sweatshirt to order and ship it from the USA; the estimated delivery date is shown on this page. To receive it by Christmas Day, order by December 8 in the U.S. or by November 23 outside the U.S.

Which size should you choose?

Each piece is made to order, so it is not eligible for size exchanges. Open the size guide on this page and compare the measurements with a top you already own before you order; we suggest sizing up if you are between sizes.

How should you wash an embroidered sweatshirt?

To keep the embroidery bright and flat, follow 4 steps:

• Turn the sweatshirt inside out before washing.
• Wash it cold on a gentle cycle.
• Tumble dry low or hang it to dry.
• Iron on the reverse side, never directly on the embroidery.

Frequently asked questions

Are the Berners printed or embroidered?

They are embroidered. The puppies, their costumes, the antlers, the ornaments and the sleeve name are stitched in thread, so they have a raised texture you can feel and will not crack or peel like a print.

Can the Berner look like my own dog?

These puppies are a ready-made design. To stitch your own dog’s face from a photo, choose the custom dog Christmas sweatshirt, and find photo portraits of Berners in our Bernese mountain dog sweatshirts.

Are there other Christmas dog designs?

Yes. More breeds in Santa hats, scarves and antlers are in our dog Christmas sweatshirts and embroidered Christmas sweatshirts.
