FAQs

Are Saint Bernards good family dogs?

Yes, Saint Bernards make excellent family dogs due to their calm, affectionate, and gentle nature. They are very good with children and other pets, making them wonderful companions. However, their large size and strength mean they might be challenging for young children or elderly family members to manage, so consistent training and socialisation from an early age are essential.

Why did Saint Bernards carry small barrels of alcohol around their necks?

Historically, Saint Bernards carried small barrels of alcohol, often brandy, around their necks during rescue missions in the Swiss Alps. This was believed to help revive and warm stranded travellers by providing quick energy and helping to combat hypothermia, though this is more of a popular anecdote than a proven fact.

Are Saint Bernards high maintenance dogs?

Saint Bernards are considered moderately to highly maintenance dogs due to their large size which demands ample space and daily exercise. They tend to drool and shed, so regular grooming is needed, along with regular veterinary care to monitor their health, as they can be prone to certain large-breed health issues.

What health problems are Saint Bernards prone to?

Saint Bernards are prone to health problems common in large breeds, including hip and elbow dysplasia, heart conditions, and gastric dilatation-volvulus (bloat), a serious and potentially fatal stomach twisting condition. Regular veterinary check-ups are important to detect and manage these issues early.
