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?
Saint (Bernards), Danes, (for Great Danes), Tollers (for Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers), pitties, bullies, Sheltie (for Shetland Sheepdog) ...
