As I am sure most of you know and as stated on Animal Planet’s show, DOGS 101, the newfoundland is the #1 rated family dog.  A more placid companion scarecly exists in all of dogdom.

International Kennel clubs generally describe the breed as having a sweet temper.

They are often referred to as the “gentle giant.” They have deep barks, are easy to train, are fine guardians and watchdogs, and are extremely good with children; so good in fact, the Newfoundland was the original “NANA” in Peter Pan.
