I fell in love with Newfies when I was a boy. My father who was an English professor brought me to one of his student's dog events. We arrived at a park filled with Newfies and many puppies. It was a sight I've never forgotten. I'm an old man now and love the Newfie as much as ever. I once wrote a short story in tribute to Newfies titled, "Kissed By A Newfoundland".
have an Alaskan Malamute male pup (Leo) he's 8 months old approx 65 lbs...Usually, when he meets other dogs he's pretty confident..stands tall..calm..& then starts playing...same with every breed.. whether it's a Maltese or an Airdele Terrier, Akita, Rottweiler, German Shephards, Pitbull...Until an off-leash black Newfoundland showed up 🤣....maybe a senior, he had the old, wise monk aura around him..as he started walking towards my pup, Leo went in a submissive, down-stay position..I have never seen him do that! Lol! It's like how elephants get respect from every other animal in the jungle.🤣..Beautiful breed, absolutely amazing!
I had a Newfoundland Dog and they know when their owner needs defending because they have superior intelligence. My Dog defended me against an intruder in lighting speed. The intruder never came back!!! She was not even 2 years old at the time, she was probably 80lbs at the time. She was angel!!!
I felt in love seeing a italian documentary. I thought: I must have one of those. He died so soon and I cried for six months be ause he had changed me. Now I have got the second and it is love, pure love. Never had a breed like this
Totally agree with and understand your emotional reaction to your newfies. We’ve had 5 of them over the last 30 years and can’t imagine life without one- we’re bringing home number 6 in a few weeks. Laughed out loud when you talked about fur in the fridge. In our house we refer to drool and fur as condiments!
This woman is very passionate about the dogs and breed and she is right....they own a piece of our hearts....I have a 5 month old Newfie named Oliver and he is 67 lbs and he is absolutely wonderful, and loves his belly rubs!!!
We owed thru many years seven (7) wonderful Newfoundland dogs while lived in the mountains where they could run free as well as being walked without leashes and the dogs were very loving and loyal to us and our land. We really enjoyed that breed so much. They absolutely need exercise, running, etc. as it will prolong their lives as we have them live to 12 and 13 years old still be active. Newfies forever!!😃🤠☝👍
I have a Landseer, my first Newfy after four Great Pyrenees. I would have gotten one sooner, but I wanted to adopt. Whenever I was in the market, there were never any available. Sadly, there were always plenty of GPs available (they are a lot of dog under all that beauty, and not for everyone.) So, as I'm getting older, I finally bit the bullet and bought a puppy. They are tough puppies, but they do grow up. He's tall for a Newfy (31") and 150 pounds. Good size boy, though I know there are some real monsters out there. That said, he's tremendous around the house, with guests, and other pets.
Are you from the southern part of the US? I had to get my big guy (Great Pyrenees mix) from a rescue that will ship them up North. I adore my sensitive, stubborn, and goofy dog. So glad I did.
I love my Newf. He's such a sweet dog and everyone loves him. I'll take him around town and show him off all the time. Mostly to socialize him every day but also to bring awareness to the breed. People love seeing a sweet 150lbs hairball with his tongue hanging a mile off to the side. He gets hugs from kids and if they're (unlucky?/lucky?) they'll get a face full of kisses.
They are truly gentle giants.We had one.We got him when he was a puppy.Actually,he picked me.He grew up to 180 pounds.Watson was a sweet gentle dog.He loved the water.He lived for 14 years.He was the best dog I ever had.
I have one of these beautiful dogs. I absolutely love this breed, my first, and what a dog he is. My dog Charlie Mac, is king around our house for sure. ❤❤❤
Lol my newfy mix is the laziest dog ever. LOVES to swim, loves all animals even my little conure. We joke that he's my most expensive rug. We live in an apartment and even when we go to my brother's that has a huge acreage he doesn't wanna run around in the yard unless we are outside. He's glued to my him
I live in Southern Ontario Canada (by Detroit) and have 2 males.. brothers.. we have 4 kids and they're SO gentle and sweet.. I sware if they accidentally knock a child over they feel bad cause they will lie down until the kid gets up.. we take them to creeks 3x's a week.. food is $$$ like WOW but so worth it.. they look like black bears 🐻 in the bush
Our family bred show dogs for many years and one day my brother and I made thick beards with some glue and fur we had laying around. The doorbell rang after only a minute of admiring our beards in the mirror. We answered the door and found that some potential buyers had come by unexpectedly and with our parents gone at the time, we stepped outside to answer their questions as best we could. No one mentioned our beards while fluffs of dog hair floated off occasionally in the breeze, and I don't know if they ever came back.
My landlord has a six month old Newfoundland/Bernese. I take a size 10 her paw almost covers my foot. She tries to mount our 120lb Mastador😂. Temperament is so velcro, yet curious and about the friendliest dog I've met overall. Believe me, I've seen a lot of dogs. Not too hard to keep play in check either. We're going to be in the lake everyday!
Love my newfs!!! Such great dogs! I have a 15 year old female Newfoundland and a 9 year old male landseer, also have a 1.5 yr female Saint..Love them slobber and all.
Yes, smart, living, loyal BUT a handful as adolescents!!!! Yup I have a 150 1 year old. Wants to go? Yes, I’ve had to let go of the leash😐... it’s a lot of work. I’ve hit a point I can’t take him out anymore as he takes off. How old do they need to be before I can do draft work? Mine is a huge ball of energy
They are beautiful, they could look like a black bear from a distance. I do believe during hunting season, especially here in the southern Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, I would keep them close to the house. They are gorgeous, absolutely beautiful🤠
Have a couple of questions. What harness do you recommend for cart pulling?, any equipment recommended for water training? Also I have to lift my boy into a boat with hoist what do you suggest for sling
Do you think you could do a video on what large breeds ARE good for those without large breed experience? Every breeder you feature seems to say the same thing- that their breed is not for those without large breed experience. So IS there a dog that can act as a transition breed? I thought this would be a Newfie or st Bernard- but I guess not.
They probably want you to adopt a well trained big dog from a shelter first, instead of getting a puppy only to find out that you can't deal with a large 150lb dog a year down the line
@@noreenebabb8266 The only thing that worries me about a large shelter dog, is that all that lack of training is probably why they are in the shelter in the first place, very hard to change a grown large dogs bad behaviour. Another option is to start with a small dog, or medium large like a lab.
We are Newfoundland lovers for quite some years now, also breading with them. But i'm not agreeing on everything she says, putting them in a bench, hmm, if you leave them for longer then a day ? Well we are never leaving them for over a day, normal working hours sure but more then that ? But that is a personal feeling, we think that Newfies are just to big to put in whatever bench you buy. I must say that we live in the Netherlands, we have 3 Newfies and they all live in our house, also we have a big owned property around the house for them to play but they always sleep inside. Also i heard her say that a Landseer is a official Newfie breed , well not in The Netherlands. Landseer is a breed of their own, they are "related" to the Mastif family but that is all. Not sure how that works in the USA of course. For the rest, yeah they are like our children, we always go on holidays where they can come, we even bought a car especially for the three of them so we always can bring them along.
Greetings from Newfoundland. While I am aware that some Clubs do consider The Landseer a separate breed I don't. The colour is the result of a recessive gene that sometimes appears when a female is bred. The AKC considers Landseer's as simply a Newfoundland with a white coat and black spots. Not a black dog with white markings. To my mind they are just as beautiful as a full black example. Really miss our wonderful male after many years.
Seems like every dog that's bred to a show standard has the same breed temperament. These will be better if you're showing the sporting version of these dogs and their temperament to actually create variance between the breeds.
Newfies are excellent dogs. They are the best companions. Not a good guard dog. They'll bark, not aggressive. Perfect dog for a relatively active person or family with kids. RIP my best buddy Spunky!
My neighbor said her dog was a mountain Pyrenees well guess watt she’s not a mountain Pyrenees she is a a Newfoundland lance black and white. She is moving and could not take the dog with her which she let run loose in the neighborhood so animal control was down here a lot. I got to know the dog and I’d took her. She is sweet as pie and she needs to be groomed because there are mats on her. I’m going to take her in a month or so when the weather clears up, but she wants me to stay outside with her all the time and rub her she is a sweetheart so that being said there’s one other thing she wants to go lay out in the rain because it’s been raining here a lot where I live and my daughter lives next door, which we have a gate that connects Our property so open the gate and she has an acre and a half to run on that there are some light spots where water wants to stand and she loves getting in it. I don’t know how to keep her on my huge covered back porch when it rains we did buy her a doghouse, but she will not get in it at all, we are letting her decide for herself from what I understand. She has been abused when she was a puppy. She now is going on three years old. I just love her and I wanna do the best for her, so does anyone have a suggestion how to keep her from and stomping in the mud paddles help?
"If someone were to break into your house..." I joke with people that if someone was actively strangling me, my Newfie pup would be trying to distract them to get pets and love from.
i have a pitbull about a year old and he's not very smart, he's lazy to train and he has like this insubordinate attitude about him like he don't like to be bothered lol

Labs and Newfs originated from the same breed, the St. John's water dog.

NewFoundland dogs is very intelligent dogs and amazing dogs great post I love NewFoundland
Great dogs always
You need to get more different breeders on the same breed. Not really a documentary, more like an interview.
Have a couple of questions. What harness do you recommend for cart pulling?, any equipment recommended for water training? Also I have to lift my boy into a boat with hoist what do you suggest for sling
She was awesome

Are they are protective at all orote just a good watch dog?
Lovely life you’re living !
TWO OF MY FAVS NEWFIE AND SAINT BERNARD
Seems like every dog that's bred to a show standard has the same breed temperament. These will be better if you're showing the sporting version of these dogs and their temperament to actually create variance between the breeds.
It`s the heart ache that comes too soon just like all the super size breeds. I have` huge ` respect these` man`s best friend `breeds.
"Everybody works"
Me, a disabled person: Sure
The LANDSEARS APPEAR TO HAVE A MORE SLENDER FRAME AND LONGER MUZZLE. WHY IS THAT?
Looks like a tall Clumber Spaniel, my favorite dog breed and the largest of the spaniels... wink wink. hint hint.
I own a 160 pound 9 mouth old Newfoundland he’s going to be 230 pounds grown. I’m a firefighter and have no problem handling him
What a beast!
Is it a good idea to have them in Southern California, it’s pretty much hot year round here
Newfies are excellent dogs. They are the best companions. Not a good guard dog. They'll bark, not aggressive. Perfect dog for a relatively active person or family with kids. RIP my best buddy Spunky!
I used to have a newfland
I like Newfoundlands
Can you make a video about the Spanish water dog?
I love mine.
I love my boy too
Do a breed review on Pacific Bulldogs please
2:34 where your teeth go lol
I tried to get my Landseer enrolled in the US military therapy program for Wounded Warriors in Germany but they told me the dog was too big. 🙄
I getting one in 4 months!

She did not do this dog breed justist This is a dog for everyone who loves dogs!! Yes a big dog but there is no dog like the Newfound dog.
Comment 1?

"If someone were to break into your house..." I joke with people that if someone was actively strangling me, my Newfie pup would be trying to distract them to get pets and love from.
Wish my pup was food driven. Would make life soooooo much easier.
The best time of your life with Newfies
I wish I had a.c. so I could get one on these dogs
Why does she say “you will have big vet bills”?
check the video on Sgt Gander the hero Newfoundland dog of Hong Kong

Kinda weird to own these in California
150 lbs yeah right. Mines 161 lbs. and almost 2 yrs old
Pfft, I wish my stubborn Newfie was food motivated.
Uhm I really liked this video

Get a BIG dog, you'll never regret it........
Nice dogs but too much hair too much drooling and a short lifespan
You literally can't let them drink inside the house. I babysat one.. and it was a massive amount of work.
YES! They are so sweet but the drool would kill me 😅
@@brycegreen8900 mine isn't a messy drinker. Mines actually a very neat drinker.
It's definitely not a dog for everyone.
@@VNguon87 hmm... Yeah. I'm sure there is a lot of individualism to account for!
