Bank St Bernard Buffs Soft Spot For Banking Again
In Kansas City Missouri a six year old St Bernard named Bourbon earns the nickname best customer at United Missouri Bank of Blue Valley. Bruce Clevenger brings daily cash deposits in a pouch tied to the dog who trots 100 yards down a hill to the bank. Bank staff describe Bourbon as eager and punctual, the only customer to enter by the rear door, with a one ladled treat after depositing.
