Dog breeds: Newfoundland

Back to list of breeds

The Newfoundland is a Canadian breed that belongs to the working class of dogs. It is suspected that this breed descends from large dog breeds like the Great Pyranees and the Tibetan Mastiff. This breed was originally used to pull sleds, guard villages and camps, and to hunt. Today they are used as a family dog and as a watch dog. They are also used as water rescue dogs as they are natural swimmers and are able to pull victims from the water with their powerful swimming stroke.

The Newfoundland is a large dog that stands between 26 and 28 inches tall and weighs between 110 and 150 pounds. They have a double coat that is oily and water resistant. This is a very laid back breed that loves kids and other animals.

The Newfoundland is a very trainable dog. Because of their size, though, they should begin training at an early age.
