(The dog is black and brown, but the tip of his (or her?) tail looks like it's been dipped in vanilla ice cream ) When you see her again, could you please give her a gentle pet for me, if she is okay with receiving some petting. If not, that's okay too.
Yes, their dog must be a Bernese Mountain dog as you describe his markings! And I bet if you ask, he would looooove a hug! I saw Emma a week ago, and delivered plenty of pettings from her fans on Pet Talk. I didn't remember to get any pictures, we had a nice walk, and she had not eaten the food from the night before - I was sharing dog-sitting duties as her mom was away, and apparently the other sitter just didn't make her feel comfortable enough to eat/ So I added a few extra grains of dog food, and stored it up, and she cleaned the dish, good girl, Emma!

She was fine with petting from me this time, and next time, maybe I will get to give her a tummy rub!
