Bernese Mountain Dog's Hilarious Stink-Eye During Mom's Manicure Is Too Cute
Equally frightful, though: this Bernese Mountain Dog's stink-eye. On Saturday, February 15th, his mom decided she wanted to freshen up with a nice coat of nail polish. It's safe to say that her pup was absolutely not having it:
Good Boy Willard deserves better than this. I mean seriously, how dare she? Does she have any idea how long it'll be before she can play ball now? At least 5 minutes!
Willard is about 4 years old. He, like most other Bernese Mountain Dogs, is incredibly dramatic for almost no reason at all. He loves to bark and grumble, and most of all, he loves to play. When he's not playing, he can be found taking up the entire couch to take a nap or grumbling at mom to play with him. It's really a vicious cycle.
When mom decided to treat herself, he could hardly believe it. He's ready to play; he has a ball and everything. Here mom goes, putting stuff on her nails that smells bad and will keep her from playing for at least a few minutes, though depending on how many coats, it could be up to an hour. Rightfully so, he's feeling a little betrayed here!
Willard is not the only Bernese Mountain Dog who acts like every single thing is the end of the world. Mom putting on nail polish might just be the worst thing to ever happen to him, and if that's true, he's one lucky pup!Bernese Mountain Dogs were bred to be incredible, fearless workers. They often worked in teams, so they're super friendly with other dogs and not super hesitant around strangers.
However, as time has gone on and they've become more and more "pet-ified," they've become more dramatic. Bernese Mountain Dogs are big and loud, which can make their grumbling seem much bigger than it is. There are some things that are guaranteed to send a BMD into a temper tantrum, like:
Being ignored.
Being bored.
Hunger.
Somebody/something in their space.
They're just very expressive pups; communication was important for the breed at the beginning and it's something that stuck with them. Sometimes, there's nothing to be done about a Bernese Mountain Dog's temper tantrum: you just have to let them get it out. Willard's mom was in that boat: the nail polish was already on! She can't wipe it off, that would be a total waste!

Veterans reflect on Vietnam War and the sacrifices they made after 50 years
ROCKFORD, Ill. (WTVO) — Local Vietnam Veterans reflect on their time in and out of war, 50 years since it ended. Eric Willard was in Vietnam from 1966-1968. At 18, he enlisted in the U.S. Army to work with computers, but two months in, he was sent to battle. Willard, like other Vietnam veterans, doesn't speak much about the war. Willard said it's because his leaders told them to hide their uniforms and push the memories aside. Since Vietnam, Willard has worked 22 jobs and kept himself busy, trying his best to forget his time overseas. 'I could hide from all of the things that I felt were failures of my time in Vietnam by burying my head and doing these other things as distractions,' Willard said. 50 years later, Willard said he still feels the effects every day. 'Some days it seems like 100 [years] and some days it seems like yesterday,' Willard said. 'As you get older, you have a sense of guilt, 'Why am I still here? And others aren't?' Willard said he learned a lot from serving, especially when it came to growing up. 'You have to watch out for yourself,' Willard said. 'That doesn't mean you're greedy or selfish or anything like that, but you realize you help yourself because nobody's out there waiting to help you.' Local groups like the Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter #984 and the LZ Peace Memorial help Willard and other veterans stay connected. Sgt. Nick Parnello (Army) and Danny Harris (Marine Corp.) both served in Vietnam. Harris said he remembers the crowd reaction to them returning home. 'We went over and fought for our country and done what we were asked to do,' Harris said. 'People were protesting against us, and we were trying to figure out why.' Parenllo said he learned to take nothing for granted. 'Freedom is so precious and so dangerous,' Parnello said. 'We can lose it, and boy, if you lose it, it's going to be hard to get it back.' All three men said that if given the chance to do it all over again, they would 'We honor the ones who didn't make it back, we honor the ones still missing, and we honor the ones who are still broken and in pieces today,' Willard said. A '50 years since Vietnam' event will be held for community members to attend at Memorial Hall on Saturday, May 3rd, at 12:30 p.m. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Binghamton veteran receives new roof from The Impact Project
BINGHAMTON, N.Y. (WIVT/WBGH) – A Marine Corps veteran who was at risk of losing his home is getting a new roof over his head thanks to a local faith-based organization. The Impact Project organized a project to replace the roof on Ron Torres's home on Clinton Street in Binghamton. The Impact Project provides needed home repairs for people who can't afford them, with a special focus on the elderly, disabled and veterans. This is their eighth project so far this year, and 241st since its creation in 2004. Torres, who lives in the house with his daughter and two grandchildren, says the roof started leaking about two years ago and had gotten steadily worse. He says The Impact project literally saved his house. 'The property was close to being condemned because we were having issues with the roof caving in probably and we had water coming into the house. Quite a bit of it. The place was deteriorating fast. This came out of the blue and came just in time,' said Torres. The Impact Project surprised Torres with a visit from a fellow Marine in full dress uniform who saluted him for his service and presented him with a Bible. Broome County Executive Jason Garnar also stopped by to express his support. Impact Project Founder Jim Willard says First Choice Roofing is doing the job at a steep discount and many others have offered money or discounted goods so that there's no cost to Torres. 'It shows the true heart of the Southern Tier. The businesses and the people living here, what it means to them, coming together. It's very special,' said Willard. Willard says the other contributors were Botnick Chevrolet, Lowes in Vestal, Bert Adams Disposal and Cornell Cooperative Extension.
