#7 Saint Bernards are often depicted with a small barrel on a collar. It was believed that it contained alcohol so that the traveler could warm up.
But, these are just the fantasies of the artist Edwin Landseer, who depicted such barrels on his canvases.
#8 St. Bernard rescuers were taught to work in pairs.
A male and a female went in search. After they managed to unearth the traveler from under the snow, the female remained in place, trying to warm the freezing man, and the male went to people for help.
#9 There are cases when St. Bernards rescued people by engaging in a fight with predatory animals. But cases of aggression of St. Bernards towards people are extremely rare.
