ohhhhh I want one!! Burmese mountain dogs are the cutest but grow up to be big dogs.

absolutely delicious!

i've been stalking one that stays at happy paws doggy day care on crosby for months now...i wish i could have one but my roomie's allergic...

my family is actually Burmese and we are very interested in adopting a Burmese Mountain Dog, does anyone know any good breeders?

Sorry to be a stickler, but the breed name is "Bernese" (say "bare-knees") mountain dog, from the canton of Bern, Switzerland (Burmese is a cat ;-). Yes, they do grow up big--we've had four that ranged 110-145 lb, but they are extremely calm, gentle dogs, so there's none of the "bull in a china shop" symdrome, and they LOVE children. Unfortunately, they've become very expensive (at least on my budget): 1989-$400, 1995-$600, 1998-$1000, 2003-$1200, and our breeder (Oregon) is among the cheapest I've found. they are also not terribly long lived, often succumbing to a variety of cancers at 6-10 years of age. They are also very "needy" toward their owners--somebody should be home most of every day to avoid behavior problems.
That said, I can't recommend the breed enough.
