    Bernie?

    Is it the St. Bernard or the Bernese Mountain Dog that's nicknamed "Bernie" ?

    Could be either, depending on who is talking! Sometimes people call St. Bernards just Saints, so it is slightly more likely they're referring to a Bernese Mountain dog, but they are related breeds, anyway!

    Thanks. Does anyone else know of any nicknames for dog breeds? I'm working on a word puzzle and so far I have:

    westie, yorkie, scottie, dobe, doxie, bully, lab, chi, pom

    Anyone know of any more?
