Bernese Mountain Dog Head Shirt: Embroidered Berner Profile with a Pink Tongue

This Bernese mountain dog head shirt shows a Berner from the side, head up and mouth open in a happy pant, with a long pink tongue curling down. The black head, the rust patch on the cheek and over the eye, and the white muzzle and chest ruff are stitched in layered thread, so the shaggy coat has real depth. It sits small on the left chest, like a pocket logo. It is a ready-made design on a soft, short-sleeve T-shirt: 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 head shirt?

The Bernese mountain dog head shirt has 2 parts:

• The Berner head: a tricolor Bernese mountain dog head in profile with an open mouth and a pink tongue, small on the left 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 Berner on that color before you order. The black head and the white ruff stand out most on light, pastel and mid-tone shirts. On the darkest shirts the black fur blends into the fabric, so the white muzzle, the rust cheek and the pink tongue carry the design.

How do you order your T-shirt?

To order your T-shirt, follow 4 steps:

• Choose the T-shirt 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 short 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 dark shirts; pick Black or another dark thread for the light colors.

Is it a Berner dad shirt or a Berner mom shirt?

Both. The design has no words, so it works as a Berner dad shirt, a Berner mom shirt or a gift for anyone who loves the breed, and the small left chest Berner head shirt stays simple enough for every day. Add a name or the words Berner Mom or Berner Dad on the sleeve if you want to say it out loud.

Is there a sweatshirt version too?

Yes. The same Berner head comes on our Bernese mountain dog head sweatshirt for cooler days. Choose this T-shirt for warm weather or layering, and the sweatshirt for a cozy fleece.

Is it a good gift for a Bernese mountain dog owner?

Yes. It suits a Berner family, a breeder or a friend who just brought home a Bernese puppy, for a birthday, a gotcha day or a summer trip with the dog. Add the dog’s name on the sleeve to make it personal.

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 T-shirt to order and ship it from the USA; the estimated delivery date is shown on this page. For a birthday or a holiday, order at least two weeks ahead.

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 T-shirt you already own before you order, and size up if you want an oversized look or are between sizes.

How should you wash an embroidered T-shirt?

To keep the embroidery bright and the color even, follow 4 steps:

• Turn the T-shirt inside out before washing.
• Wash it cold with similar colors, and use only non-chlorine bleach.
• Tumble dry low or hang it to dry.
• Skip the dry cleaner, and if you iron, iron on the reverse side, never directly on the embroidery.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Berner printed or embroidered?

It is embroidered. The black fur, the rust cheek, the white ruff and the pink tongue are stitched in layered thread, so the head has a raised texture you can feel and will not crack or peel like a print.
