St. Bernards of St. Bernard closed ??

Oh thats so sad, the Offical St.Bernard dawgs are being sold away at the 17th century old monestary of St.Bernard.

The earliest mention of St. Bernard dogs at this hospice stretches back to 1695. "The issue of those dogs - the famously huge and heroic ones, who toted brandy barrels in legend, who lived here for centuries and sniffed scores of stranded travelers out of the snow is that the descendants of the dogs who gave the breed its name - and this nation a symbol - might be put down or not find proper homes."

These are a really adorable dogs. My Aunt in Holland had on !!
