Newfoundland

Renowned for its kind nature, the Newfoundland is a gentle giant with a thick, water-resistant coat. This large breed combines strength with a sweet temperament, making it an excellent family pet, particularly good with children. Newfies require regular exercise, but don't let their size fool you; they enjoy lounging just as much. Often called "nature's babysitter," the Newfoundland is protective yet friendly, and its impressive swimming ability makes it a superb rescue dog.
