Best Answer

"Burmese Mountain Dog" is two things:

1) A corruption of "Bernese Mountain Dog", a large and gentle Swiss farm dog, bred to pull carts, do some guard work and as a companion dog.

2) A mythical dog from Myanmar that does not exist. One version is that it is Asia's famed Skunk Hunter. See links below for more.

its a breed of dog from Switzerland they are black, brown and white and are kinda like st. Bernard's
The Bernese Mountain Dog is a large, strong, sturdy, agile dog. These cheerful dogs love children. They are very intelligent, easy to train and are natural watchdogs, but not overly dominant. A friend for life. Self-confident, alert and good-natured. Socialize well as a puppy. Slow to mature, acting like a puppy longer than other breeds. Rather friendly with strangers, and are generally good with other pets and dogs. The Bernese needs to be with people and not confined to the backyard or a kennel. These dogs are sensitive and should be trained firmly, but gently. Owners will only run into issues with this dog if they are not displaying a natural leadership towards the dog, treating him more like their babyand lacking in the knowledge as to what dogs instinctually need to be stable minded. Owners who fail to convince the dog humans are alpha may find themselves with a totally different dog than what is described above. For a dog to feel secure they need to clearly know the rules so they can follow them, thriving in structure, along with a daily pack walk to satisfy their instinct to migrate. The Bernese Mountain Dog was bred for draft work and can be trained to pull a cart or wagon. Bernese Mountain Dog are not recommended for apartment life. They are relatively inactive indoors and will do best with at least a large, fenced-in yard. Because of their thick coats they are sensitive to the heat and would much rather be in cold temperatures. They should grow to between 23 and 28 inches at the shoulder and weigh between 80 and 110 pounds. Large active dogs such as these need regular exercise, which include a long daily walk. This is not a very long lived breed, averaging 6 to 8 years. Daily to weekly brushing of the long thick coat is important, with extra care needed when the coat is shedding. Bathe or dry shampoo as necessary. This breed is a seasonal, heavy shedder. It is usually classed in the Working Breed Group at shows.

They were actually bred to hunt skunks in Myanmar. You may be thinking of the Bernese Mountain Dog which were used as rescue dogs.
