Is a Saint Bernard Right for Your Family?
Saint Bernard's are warm, friendly, and gentle giants.
They are great with kids and have a goofball disposition.
Saints are easy to train and very intelligent.
Being sensitive to heat, they always need a cool place to be with access to plenty of water.

If you don't want to deal with...• A very bulky dog who takes up a lot of space in your house and car
• A heavy dog who wants to sit on your feet, lie on your lap, and lean his weight against your leg • Rowdiness and exuberant jumping when young • "Separation anxiety" and destructiveness when left alone too much • Fearfulness or aggression in some lines, or when not socialized enough • Some stubbornness and/or dominance problems, especially in males • Heavy shedding • Slobbering and drooling • Health problems and a short lifespan ...a Saint Bernard may not be right for you. |
