St. Bernard, for whom the dog is named, is also known as Bernard of Clairvaux. The Virgin Mary appeared to him while he was sick and squirted breast milk onto him, which cured him. Some of it was scraped fom his cheek and preserved as a relic. There is a long and informative article about him at http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/02498d.htm
