I would be drummed-out of the Canine Corps if I didn't correct the reference. It is Bernese (as in Bern, Switzerland) not Burmese Mountain Dog. I doubt if a Bernie would do well in the Burmese climate. Although, you may find a rabid rangoon in Burma.

If it has to be done, it has to be done at some point.

Remember...two wrongs don't make a right, but three rights make a left.
