    Saint Bernard Dogs

    "Countless tales from the Alps have told of saintly dogs that save hundreds of lives stranded on deep snow. These dogs, immensely huge, carry these persons on their back after pouring warm wine from the casket tied to their necks. Tall tales, some details may seem, but Saint Bernard dogs have indeed save lives a countless of times, spawning countless of tales even beyond the majestic peaks of Alps."

    This is the familiar line regarding Saint Bernard dogs. But for its standing of being a tall tale, Saint Bernard dogs are known all throughout as the gentlest temperament of all dogs, much less of all big dogs. That is why opting for a Saint Bernard dog adoption is perhaps the best recommendation. Gentle to the family and naturally a barking guard dog, it makes the adoption of Saint Bernard dogs an endearing option.

    Here are some facts regarding Saint Bernard dogs.

    Even beyond the Swiss legend, a Saint Bernard's temperament is best described as highly tolerant. Even those untrained Saint Bernard dogs, provided that they are reared since young, will tolerate any family member's handling however clumsy may it be. A trained Saint Bernard will endure the rough playing ordinary to small children stoically and would never show signs of aggression. It is still recommended though that small children playing with dogs shouldn't be left unsupervised, especially with big dogs like Saint Bernard dogs.

    Saint Bernard dogs are naturally placid and rarely would engage in rough play typical of energetic breeds. That fact makes them sometimes very stubborn and won't be as eager to please as any other breed of dogs. That is because Saint Bernard dogs are naturally bred for harsher climates, and their physiology requires them to conserve energy by moving less.

    Saint Bernard dogs are overly protective, and though their temperament is gentle, its massive size and deep, booming bark can be very intimidating. And they will knock aggressors (or those that they perceive as threat) to the ground and pin them with a huge paw. That is why Saint Bernard dogs should be socialized frequently to make them shed that territorial inclination.

    Because they become highly attached to its human family, Saint Bernard dogs become very prone to anxiety if left alone for periods of time. And because of its size, they can knock furniture with ease, thus making them very damaging to belongings if left on the house for periods of time.
