aah thank you. I like to think that he is looking after all of the doggies who didn't have a happy life in this world.

Now that is a lovely thought.

Now he is a handsome dog and sorely missed im sure. My sister has a St Berbard and she is like a human (the dog not my sister) x x

The big dogs just melt your heart.

As children we had a German shepherd and he was amazing but ive never had any interaction with really bog dog and your right there is just something special about them.

They seem to have a human way about them that's hard to describe if you've never spent time with one. My sister St Bernard weighs about 16 stone and she likes to sit on my knee but she does it ever so carefully. She is fab x

that's so funny. Barny would carefully position himself with his front and back legs on either side of my lap and then slowly lower his weight on to me.

Wow, gorgeous. Love big dogs ( as I have one too ) they never grow out of being over sized pups that melt your heart with their eyes xx sonia xx

Beautiful dog! What a great photo. Would love to see more photos of Barny. Gorgeous dog!

😊😊 xx

What a wonderful big dog. How you must miss him. Pets really are a huge part of our lives and touch our hearts. We will be devastated when our cat Tess passes on (17 this year) but it is inevitable. Your photo is really heartwarming and thanks for posting. xxx

Lovely photo. Is that a false black beard he's wearing? I hope he's taken my Freddie under his wing 😘

Thankyou so much - great to see a photo of you both.

Barny is so very big and handsome - what a gorgeous dog. It must have been so hard to lose him but I'm certain you'll have many happy memories to treasure.

I'm a bit late in signing in. I have a new TV to try and get to grips with...it's a bit of a techno challenge at the moment !!

he looks lovely - you must miss him greatly as I miss my little darling xx
