  1. I grew up with Newfoundlands, so no dog breed seems "big" to me. I had a 180 lbs puppy named Rex, and my mom had a 240 lbs puppy named Teddy before I was born. Also despite being known as water rescue dogs, some Newfoundlands can't swim. My mom had a very small Newfoundland named Mischief who didn't know how to swim, and would just walk along the bottom of the lake or river they went to. She was also the oldest Newfoundland that our family or our veterinarian knew of, she lived to be 13 when the average lifespan is about 11 years.

  2. They LOVE children.
    They have web feet.
    Our newfendland male was 170lbs
    There freaks for water.he had his own kiddy pool. We lived in San Diego in the 70s .
    People would freak out.
    When they saw him.
    A gentle giant. They have so much LOVE to give.❤️

  3. If you own 9 Newfoundland’s you should learn how to say Newfoundland. Haha.
    Repeat “understand Newfoundland” and make it rhyme and you’ll have it like the locals 🙂 Bless. Can’t wait to get one.

  4. My Hershey has been great. He's 4 now and he's sweetest teddy bear, always drawing a crowd and even going to work with me sometimes. They are definitely people pleasers!

  5. You have straight, sober information to give. Might I suggest the music volume is cut down to about half where it presently is. I'd really like to listen to you, rather than strain to make sure I'm getting what you are saying. Thanks.

  6. "New FOUND lands" lmao! That's not how you say it and we don't say "Newfoundland "ISLAND" either. So weird!

  7. For heavens sake,

    Please, please take the time to learn how to pronounce Newfoundland correctly. "Lind" and "Lund" are not part of the name.

    It's pronounced Newf-In-Land and must rhyme perfectly with "understand" to be acceptable here in Newfoundland. And, it's never Newfoundland Island, it's only ever referred to as The Island of Newfoundland. This place we call home is the smaller portion of the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador. And no, The Labrador Retriever does not come from Labrador. It's roots are in Newfoundland and it's a spin-off of The Newfoundland Dog originally known as The Lessor Newfoundland.

  8. I have a 10 month old Landseer Newf. Ichinojo is currently 120 lbs and will probably max out at around 150-155. He's definitely in the teenager phase – he craves exercise and mounts every new person, dog or object he sees (my vet recommends against neutering large breeds because of the increased risk of obesity). I started taking him to the beach and to the Scottish lochs when he was very young and he loves water.

    Newfs love kids. Ichinojo's best friend is my cousin's 3 year old son. He's very gentle around toddlers, and he's got a strong protective instinct. Whenever a stranger tries to approach the little guy Ichinojo will physically place himself between them. No growling or barking, but he makes his presence known.

  9. this said it all. great explaining, but just looking at how affectionate he was stole my heart. i could hardly watch this from cuteness tears
