Breed Guide: Bernese Mountain Dogs!
Added 2021-05-10 18:32:59 +0000 UTCHappy Monday, my Garfields!
Now I've met many-a' Bernese during my time on Earth, and they're a lovely dog indeed. I mean, they have eyebrows, so I have no choice but to stan.
We only had one at my dog job tho, Hank, and he had HORRIBLE anxiety. He'd just lay in one corner of the yard all day until it was time to go. Regardless of having no fun, he was a regular and was there every single day since the place had opened, and was always excited to come.
But... He hated me. More than anyone else. My first shift there, my water bottle fell off the fence, where he had unfortunately decided to set up camp for the day, and it bonked him on the head. He NEVER trusted me after that. And I had made a gentlemen's agreement with just about every aggressive/anxious dog there, dogs that had attacked me I had turned around and became best pals with. A couple really aggressive dogs would only be good for me.... But Hank was the only one I could never befriend. It hurt my pride so deeply.... He did end up randomly mauling my coworker while she was trying to break up a fight (even tho he loved her)... So I guess I'm ok with it in the end. (she recovered completely!!) He outweighed me by a lot, I was the littlest dude employed there. Oh Hank. I hope you learn to love some day! Thanks for not killing me. <3

2021-05-11 12:15:41 +0000 UTCYES!!! I was waiting for this one! We had a Berner named Ursae growing up and it's all true. The eyebrows were so good, he always looked confused. And the "Cheese dog" thing is absolutely throwing me for a loop because Ursae LOVED cheese. He basically trained my dad to give him a Kraft single every time he needed to go back inside after going out to pee. The vet even mentioned that despite being pretty healthy, "his cholesterol is a bit high" 😂 I never knew that cheese was part of his heritage!

2021-05-11 03:56:41 +0000 UTCHAHAHAHA OH NO!!! Omg... There was a multi-poo at work named SPARKLE ( just a singular sparkle, pissed me off for some reason) and she didn't hate me but I did hate her.....Sorry Sparkle. She screamed all night shift at the highest pitch and when you'd take her out to potty she'd run in circles screaming for upwards of 20 minutes forcing me to stay late into the night every time.... with a pounding headache from her screeching. Her face was always red and runny, nasty girl. Something about those Sparkle girls, they aint right.

2021-05-10 20:42:34 +0000 UTCmy exes parents had a chihuahua papillon mix named sparkles that hated me with every fiber of her being, and I would always come over at night (we worked 2nd shift) and sparkles would always bark and growl at me and wake everyone up 😩

2021-05-10 18:55:04 +0000 UTCLol my spouse is a huge dog lover, used to rescue/foster giant breeds, etc but every Christmas he's faced with the indignity of seeing his aunt's dog Layla, this awesome, chubby poodle mix and the only dog in the world who doesn't like him. She's actually legit afraid of him. The contrast between how much she freely offers her love to everyone else vs how loud she barks at him before running away to hide, swear to god, it's tragic to witness. One year he pocketed a bunch of turkey directly out of the serving pan to try to win her over but no dice
