The Newfoundland is a large powerful dog, capable of pulling a heavy load or rescuing a full-grown man from the sea. There are many stories told and written about such rescues. They have traditionally been working dogs, as well as companions. These dogs possess many wonderful traits that man would do well to emulate - loyalty, gentleness, acceptance, forgiveness, and unconditional love. They are wonderful with children, displaying an unusual gentleness and understanding.
