People Are Posting Funny And Cute Photos Of Their Newfoundlands, And It’s Crazy How Massive They Are
Newfoundlands are known for the massive size and large coats, but if you take a closer look, you will discover they are just gentle giants. Out of the large dog breeds Newfoundlands top the chart as the 5th largest in the world standing at between 27-30 inches tall and weighing as much as 150 pounds. Add to their height the thick double coat that covers them, and they appear even larger. The big dog breed, as the name suggests, comes from the Canadian island of Newfoundland. Fisherman in the area needed dogs who could aid them on board, and with their natural ability to swim due to their partially webbed feet, Newfoundlands were their best choice. The big dogs kept warm by their fur, were strong enough to save a grown man from drowning. This kind of loyalty has made them ideal pets to their families, who, as you will see from this list, have had to make a little extra room in their homes.

I would just love the ability to have one of these beautiful animals. Sadly, live in apartment with "no -pets" clause and no garden. :(

These dogs do have health issues. They're prone to eye and ear infections and have to have both constantly kept clean...and believe me, cleaning a Newfie's ears is thoroughly disgusting. Ear wax that could fill a swimming pool. Yech. ...///... They also are prone to heart disease and arthritis as they age and tend to have short life spans. A 9 year old Newfie is a geriatric dog.

Ears= yuck - one of my boxers had a chronic yeast skin problem, paws, muzzle creases, ears. Tried everything to clear it up. When she was half asleep every evening I would be gently removing the icky brown stuff from her ears trying not to wake her up. Bless her, she was so patient.
