Newfoundland Dog

Newfoundlands are 150-pound water dogs who will retrieve things from your pool whether you asked them to or not, and they’ll do it with the patience of someone who has nowhere else to be. Their thick double coat sheds enough to knit a second dog every spring, their webbed feet track water through your house after every bathroom break, and their droopy lips drip on your lap while they stare at you with genuine concern about your life choices. If you want a devoted, unnervingly calm presence that turns every body of water into a personal rescue mission, this is your breed.
