About Us
Jackson Missouri Saint Bernards is located in Jackson, Missouri and is owned and operated by Jacob Long and his wife Molly Long. We have an avid life-long passion for dogs, especially Saint Bernards for their warm and gentle nature, their "sixth sense", and of course their size! We fell in love with this breed when we heard of their inherent ability to rescue. Having over 2500 recorded lives saved by the breed since their beginning in about the seventeenth century, they still continue to do rescue work today - though not in the Alps. We heard the story of a man from one of our lineage, who's grand-daughter was outside playing, and went into the street on the busy highway where they live while they had turned their attention for a moment. When they looked back, they saw the Saint Bernard holding the shirt of the girl pulling her back into the yard and up to safety. Stories about Saint Bernards pulling their owners out of house fires are abundant as well amongst many others. They are truly a great companion to have! They are so eager to make friends, and are a very affectionate breed.
Our ultimate goal is to share our love of this breed with others, and provide them with a happy, healthy companion that they can have along side them for many years to come! In doing so we are very proud to support and meet the standards of the AKC, because without it, we would not have particular breeds of dogs and distinct natures. However, we also do adopt from the local animal shelter when we can to support the homeless because that is important too!
All of our dogs are born and raised in a loving home with a 2 acre fenced-in property where our dogs can run and play freely. We are also committed to going above and beyond in our breeding practices, and use selective breeding to ensure our dogs do not mix bloodlines, nor pass on unhealthy traits for their future generations (which we will continue to keep as well). We are committed to ensuring ALL of our puppies receive great homes and loving families. We truly hope that you enjoy the companionship of your Saint Bernard as much as we do!
