One of the true gentle giants, the Saint Bernard is protective, patient and careful around children, winning them the nickname “the nanny breed”. Bred by Monks in the Swiss Alps mountains to help rescue travelers, they were able to search through the snow to aid during avalanches. A terrific family dog, not overly energetic, or needing as excessive training as many giants.
Up to 180lbs. and 30”. With a coat of red, brindle or mahogany and white, moderate grooming.
