So my little story deals with a customer at work. Again I work at a holistic pet food store, so I have funny questions all the time that I have to try and answer. I was having a conversation with a co-worker of mine when a Bernese Mountain Dog walked in. My co-worker stated "Oh my goodness that is the biggest dog ever!" Now working in a pet store I am exposed to tons of dogs within a day and being an avid dog lover I know a lot about breeds. I looked at my co-worker and said are you sure that is the biggest dog? Her statement left a question in my mind about what it is she considers big and small. Her statement was overall ambiguous simply because her version of big and small differed from my version. By her having three small Chihuahuas that weigh less than ten pounds each, a Bernese would seem large. Yet a Great Dane is twice as tall, but may weigh around the same, where as a Mastiff is about the same height but could possibly weigh more than both the Bernese and Great Dane, separately. I thought it was funny, especially since I have always had large dogs, small to me is my sixty pound Chocolate Lab<3
