SAINT BERNARD PUPPIES FOR SALE

The Saint Bernard is a giant dog breed that weighs 120–180 pounds and stands 65–90 centimetres. It has a sizeable imposing head, short muzzle, well-defined stop, and square-shaped nose, dark eyes with a gentle and intelligent expression, and slightly large ears that are reaching the dog’s cheeks. The jaw is strong and the neck is well-muscled and moderately arched with nicely-developed dewlaps. Its broad shoulders are sloped up at its withers whilst the legs are strong, straight, and well-boned.The Saint Bernard’s coat is either rough or smooth. The smooth coat is tight and lies close to the body, whilst the rough coat is thick, flat, and more abundant around the neck and legs. The commonly accepted colours are mahogany brindle with white and a red shade with white. Usually, black shading is found on the face and ears. Regardless of which type of coat it wears, the Saint Bernard is a bit high-maintenance since it’s known to be a prolific shedder. With that said, make sure to brush its coat a few times a week or daily, if possible. Often, owners hire professional groomers to make it easier for them to maintain the dog’s coat.

Dog grooming is an integral part of the well-being of the Saint Bernard, or any dog. Aside from making sure the coat is clean, it is also necessary to pay attention to other physical aspects that require care such as the ears, teeth, and the nails. Brush the dog’s teeth to prevent gum disease and bad breath. Ears should also be checked for signs of infection and cleaned regularly to avoid problems. Nails must be trimmed at least once or twice a month, or when you start hearing clicking sounds on the floor.
