Bernese Mountain Dog Santa Hat Sweatshirt: Embroidered Berner Puppy with a Scarf and a Gift

Sitting beside a wrapped present, the puppy on this Bernese mountain dog Santa hat sweatshirt is a tricolor Berner in an orange-red Santa hat and a fringed knit scarf, tongue out and ready for the holidays. It is a ready-made design that we embroider to order in real thread, not print.

What is on the Bernese mountain dog Santa hat sweatshirt?

The puppy and its gift sit together in the center of the chest, small and tidy, with the box tucked against the puppy’s side.

• The puppy: the classic Bernese tricolor coat, black on the head, ears and body, rust on the eyebrows, cheeks and legs, and white on the blaze, chest and paws, with round dark eyes and a pink tongue.
• The hat and scarf: an orange-red Santa hat with a white brim and pom-pom, and an orange knit scarf whose fringed end hangs down over the white chest.
• The gift: an orange box tied with a gold ribbon and a gold bow on top.

Why a Berner puppy with a Christmas present?

Bernese mountain dogs come from the Swiss Alps, where they worked on farms and pulled small carts, so a snowy, cozy holiday look suits them. This design shrinks that big, gentle working dog down to puppy size and sits it next to a present, like a fluffy new family member waiting to be unwrapped on Christmas morning. The warm orange hat, scarf and box echo the rust markings of the tricolor coat, so the whole picture feels like one set. With one puppy and one gift, it is a simple Bernese puppy Christmas sweatshirt you can wear on any December day.

Which color should you choose?

The photos switch to whichever color you pick above. Light and mid-tone colors give the black coat a clear outline. On dark colors the black blends into the fabric, so the white blaze, the rust markings, the hat, the scarf and the gift carry the design. On warm colors close to the rust markings, those markings look softer.

Is it a good Bernese mountain dog Christmas gift sweatshirt?

Yes. As a Bernese mountain dog Christmas gift sweatshirt it suits a Berner mom or dad, a family counting down to a new puppy, or anyone who loves big fluffy dogs, and it fits into a Secret Santa or stocking exchange without fuss. There is no hoodie, but there is a T-shirt: the same Berner puppy comes on our Bernese mountain dog Christmas shirt, a short-sleeve version for warmer days.

Can you add a name to the sleeve?

Yes. Add your Berner’s name or initials to one sleeve. The charts in the photos list the fonts, icons and thread colors; White thread is selected to start, since it reads on dark sweatshirts, and Black or another dark thread is the clearer match for light ones.
