The St. Bernard or St Bernard (UK: /ˈbɜːnəd/, US: /bərˈnɑːrd/) is a breed of very large working dog from the western Alps in Italy and Switzerland.[3] They were originally bred for rescue by the hospice of the Great St Bernard Pass on the Italian-Swiss border.[4][5] The hospice, built by and named after Italian monk Bernard of Menthon, acquired its first dogs between 1660 and 1670.[4] The breed has become famous through tales of alpine rescues, as well as for its enormous size.
Appearance
The St. Bernard is a giant dog. The weight of the breed is between 65 and 120 kg (140 and 260 lb) or more, and the approximate height at the withers is 70 to 90 cm (28 to 35 in).[6]
The coat can be either smooth or rough; the smooth coat being close and flat while the rough is dense, flat, and more profuse around the neck and legs. The colour is typically a red shade with white, or a mahogany brindle with white. Black shading is usually found on the face and ears.
The tail is long and heavy, hanging high.
Eyes are usually brown, but sometimes can be icy blue, and should have naturally tight lids, with haws only slightly visible.
My favorite movie The second volume of the book series of Harry Potter has a special meaning for me, as it was with him began my acquaintance with the world of wizards and Muggles. This was back in school, when we had a collective campaign to just come out of the film based on the book. I liked the movie, but I especially do not understand what the Sinister Volan de Mort, who terrorizes the boy in glasses. It took almost five years before I picked up the novel source, it is expected to have exerted much better impression than the movie (even allowing for the nostalgic plaque, which already covered the film viewing.) In contrast to the Philosopher's Stone, which is still more like a children's adventure tale of a laid-back, "Chamber of Secrets" focuses toward the mysteries and secrets. Indeed, in the book are many intriguing questions - starting with the opening scene from the house elf Dobby and completing the question, who was still a student Tom Riddle's diary which came to Harry.
