Living with a Newfoundland is like living with a furry guardian angel. They’re massive, gentle, and oddly intuitive—like they were sent here just to love you better than you love yourself. They’re famously great with kids, tolerant of chaos, and happiest when near their family (preferably lying directly in front of a doorway).
But don’t mistake their calm for low maintenance. They shed, they drool, and they need space to stretch out. If you can handle that, the payoff is a kind, steady presence who feels more like a companion than a pet.
• Calm, sweet, and reliable\n• Great with kids and pets\n• High grooming needs\n• Needs room to move\n• Not heat-tolerant
Newfoundlands need room to move—physically and emotionally. They do best in homes with a yard, access to water, and people who are around more often than not. They hate the heat, love the snow, and are happiest when they feel included.
They’re built for big-hearted homes with calm energy and soft furniture (even if they technically aren’t supposed to be on it).
I’m soft, soulful, and I will absolutely drool on your shoes. I’m down for slow walks, snow days, and soulful stares across the room. Bonus points if you own towels. Lots of towels.
• Double coat = lots of brushing\n• Needs cooler environments\n• Prone to joint issues—no rough play\n• Huge water lovers\n• Can be clingy with family
• Deshedding rake and undercoat comb\n• Extra-large cooling mat\n• Floating toys and dog-safe life vest\n• Orthopedic bed\n• Portable drool towel
Newfoundlands are gentle giants with lifesaver instincts, massive hearts, and equally massive grooming needs. They’re not for the squeamish or the spotless—but for families who want a kind, steady, soulful dog, they’re unbeatable.
