What I will tell you is, unlike Huskies, Saint Bernards are very sensitive souls. A harsh scolding is worse than a beating for these dogs, unlike a Husky, who pretty much figures you can yell all you want, she's still gonna do her own thing!

And prepare to hide all the shoes. Freckles, the Saint Bernard we had when I was a kid, chewed one each of my pairs of shoes when I was dumb enough to leave the closet door ajar. She also favored certain volumes of the old encyclopedia. And have plenty of chew things handy, the bigger, the better!
