USA TODAY List Wire··1 min read
The Newfoundland breed is one big, beautiful dog. They are water-loving and are thrilled to show off their swimming ability, which is enhanced by webbed paws, and water-resistant double coats. The AKC says the Newfoundland is a famously good companion and has earned a reputation as a patient and watchful "nanny dog" for kids. The Newf head is majestic, the expression soft and soulful. The outer coat is flat and coarse. Colors are gray, brown, black, and a black-and-white coat named for artist Sir Edwin Landseer, who popularized the look in his paintings.
Newfoundland dogs are big and friendly. Their makeup leads to an affinity for the water.
