The Burmese Mountain Dog

[Pat Long & Paul Dangel]

If any of you were curious about the standard for this dog, you can see
it here:

It's a spoof of course, but a very well done one! The person who shared
it with another List indicated that a berner mix that she knew of looked
exactly like this. The mother was a purebred Berner. 

She also indicated that some of the commercial breeders picked up on
this and were offering the breed for sale. Either that or they were
offering misspelled Berners, you never know!

I don't know how long I studied and then owned a Leonberger (several years
at least) when it hit me I really didn't know if I was pronouncing the name
correctly!

I am forever referring to the Alpenhorn as the Applehorn

Hi,
My best story was the man on the telephone asking about Bernaise Mountain
Dogs and when in the conversation he heard me say Bernese he corrected me!
I was polite but nonetheless told him my pronunciation was correct, he
announced his surprise at my ignorance considering how long I'd owned
Bernaise at which point my patience was suffering. I informed him I was a
breeder not a chef!
