They don't need brandy; these goldens can lick your face back to alertness.

The Avalanche Puppies just find you Ski Patrol hands out the brandy.

Right! Remember, it is the Saint Bernards that carry the small keg. They basically worked with the Monks back and forth over the mountain passes of the Alps.

And that keg was from a time before we knew that alcohol increases the chance of hypothermia despite the flush of warmth with that first swallow.
