A watchful gaze… They may look similar, but I have been reliably informed that this is a Berners Sennenhund, and not a Saint Bernard. Both equally common in these parts as you might expect, and very similar if you are a bit of a dog breed dunce like me…
Cass@frugalfamily says
Oh, that’s such a cute dog – just look at his face x x
Emma says
So sweet isn’t he? :) Thanks Cass!
sherry from sherrys pickings says
oh what a gorgeous doggie. so very cute. I don’t care what sort he is:)
Emma says
He’s very sweet isn’t he? Thanks Sherry! (:
Heather says
Oh my goodness, that face! Confusion is understandable… BV and I have had a similar conversation many times because I would love to have a Bernese Mountain dog at some point, and every time he says, “Beethoven? Really?” And then I have to remind him, “No honey, that’s a St. Bernard.” Still not as ridiculous as his thinking that an Australian Shepherd was a cross between a German Shepherd and a Dingo, though. :)
Emma says
Ha ha! I think I share the same hund knowledge as your other half! :D
Christie @ A Sausage Has Two says
I don’t care what sort it is, and never mind that gaze… LOOK AT THOSE PAWS!!! I am in love.

Su {Ethan & Evelyn} says
I love these dogs so much! My friend used to have one of those, but I think she has Saint Bernard though. What are the differences? I can’t make out. They look so the same! I love the way their eyebrows twitches when questioning something. What magnificent door and porch you have there! Very grand! Love it. #MySundayPhoto
Emma says
Thanks Su! I think they might be the same family, but a different kind. I am definitely not on any kind of expert scale though! Sadly it’s not my porch either, but it is gorgeous isn’t it?

Sarah MumofThree World says
He looks so peaceful, but somehow you know he’s also doing a good job of guarding his property. I’m a dog dunce too – would totally have said that was a St Bernard!
Emma says
The kind of guard dog that could mean business! Thanks Sarah! (:
