Is there anyway you can get a bernese mountain dog that stays small forever?

The breed, Bernese Mountain Dog, was not bred to be small. Why do you want a small one? Obviously you don't want this particular breed then. Find yourself a small dog that you do like. If you want this breed then you have to like the entire breed as it was meant & bred to be. This is a working breed & not bred to be small or it could not function.
