Like all dog breeds within the AKC’s Herding Group, the Bergamasco Sheepdog has an instinctive ability to control the movements, or 'gather', other animals. Originally bred to protect or herd livestock, the Bergamasco Sheepdog is a breed that used to run non-stop for most of the day. However, changes to the Bergamasco Sheepdog in modern-day society leave the breed less active than in years past. We'd recommend the Bergamasco Sheepdog a high-protein dog food to help the dog manage their weight and still provide them plenty of protein for their naturally active lifestyle.
