My grandparents had a Newfie and he was the best dog ever, but had to be groomed every 2 weeks, and it would sometimes take double to triple the time of a regular dog so it costs a lot more. They are also extremely huge so their toys, beds, collars, etc are going to cost a lot more than a smaller dogs would. They also don’t live as long as other dogs usually because of their size, so they have a lot of vet bills for when they get older. They also eat a TON of food. So you would have to buy food more often than you would with a regular size dog.

We had a Newfoundland for 14 years, my buddy Kai. Born 10 days after me, He and I were unseperable, bought him as a shy puppy from a dog breeder and he was the best dog ever. I think he is the only Newfoundland that didn't like Swimming haha. He loved water and baths and stuff but sea and river swimming was not his thing at all! He loved to sleep, hours and hours day in and out. When I got home he grabbed my schoolbag and basically guided me to the couch so I could pet him (he did this to all of us). He loved to walk but not too much or too far, he was a house/garden dog and he loved to climb up the fence with his 2 front legs and look over the street and he let everyone pet him. He actually weakened the gate with his 85kg. (He was bigger then all the dogs in our neighborhood and bigger then most children lol). I miss my dude a lot, and if my girlfriend didn't mind drooling dogs, I would buy one right this minute. Hope you had a good life bro, rest easy❤

Two other reasons to give a hard think before getting a Newfie. First they are high maintenance, not just grooming. They are expensive (food, grooming, medical bills etc.) and they require a level of attention and companionship that some people depending on their circumstances, may not be able to meet. Second, life expectancy. Conceding the odd exception, ten years is about the most you can reasonably hope to get out of your Newfie. If you get more, that's great but you should not count on it. So be prepared for a roughly every ten years dose of heartbreak.

We’re exactly one year in with our Newfie. He’s an absolute sweetheart, but it hasn’t been all rainbows. Our backyard is constantly littered with items from the house that he snags and takes outside to chew on. Shoes, backpacks, belts, headphones, blankets, stuffed animals, etc. When it’s time for a walk, or when he decides it’s time for a walk, he will literally not take no for an answer. I’ve been awaken in bed several times around 4am because he needed a walk right then and there. From what I’ve read, they really chill out after 24 months. We absolutely love him and I wouldn’t have chose another dog if I could go back, but be prepared for those first two years.

I adore my Newfie and yes, all you say is very true. One other point, if you live in a hot climate, get another breed. They LOVE snow and the cold, but really struggle as it warms up, even with daily grooming to keep their undercoat from building up. I live in the north and moved here from AZ. I would NEVER subject one of these guys to the desert. Even up here, she has a pool in the shade to cool her off and is inside during the afternoons. Just a suggestion. They are very sweet, very easy to train and completely devoted. Mine still thinks she is a lap dog at 120 lbs, so boundaries or at least a good compromise on things like puppy snuggles (even as an adult) are in order because of their size. They are very accommodating.❤😊

I would add another very important reason why you shouldn’t have a Newfoundlander: if you really care about your pet by no means take this dog if you live in warm regions. This dog is adapted to swimming in icy cold waters, and his coat will never leak water to his skin even if he has been in the water for hours. Life in warmer regions is a terrible suffering for him because there is no way to cool off. If you do take it, be prepared that it will not live long in warm conditions. And one more thing: be prepared for a lot of drooling. A lot.

He keeps the predators out of the chicken coop and garden. He’s docile with the chickens, cats and kids. Kind and loving toward visitors. Barks at strange cars and walkers. Love’s to be near me while he’s resting during the day. Will play in the garden when we are outside. He sleeps in the garage with a dog door to a fenced backyard/run. That way he can listen and bark to keep predators away. He walks our larger grounds two times a day to mark for coyotes. He’s the most loving guy I’ve had. We live in Michigan and his drooling days are not bad, mostly on very hot days. We will likely never get a different breed. Bruno is the best dude ever.

I had one growing up. At about 6 months old I think he weighed as much as I did at age 8. And what you just described in reason #5 literally happened to me. One day we wanted to take him in the car; problem was, he knew the word "car"... knew what it meant when we grabbed his leash... and got really excited. So I had him hooked up on his leash, opened the front gate and he gave his first excited lurch to go for the car. Scared me because that was the first time I tried to walk him since he was like 8 weeks old, so I didn't expect *that* much power. I then made a HUGE mistake: I kneeled down next to him to try and calm him. No sooner did I do that then, he licked my face and then BOLTED for the car. Now in my 8 year old mind, all I saw was him running out into the street just as a giant truck sped by so I held onto that leash for dear life. How did this end? Well after about 10-15 feet I lost my grip and he did bolt for the street... except he went for our minivan, literally circled it twice looking for the open door, didn't find it, stopped on the non-street side, sat down on the grass and gave us this look of, "so... let me in already!"

I am lucky to have a female newfie for 10 years now .... I love her ! I have noticed however, they are extremely stubborn... They hear you but don't really give a f***k... i had many dogs before... But i trust her the most... Even with "loud" kids in her face, she somewhat pushes them away in a nonviolent manner... They also grunt a lot... very expressive dog... When i give her food even the cats come to eat with her from the same bowl, no problem. If she gets frustrated (cats like to cuddle with her and don't really get her), she makes something between a bark and a crying howl sound... Never had any health problems besides ear infections... lovable dogs... BE NICE TO THEM AND THEY NEED NO TRAINING "" !

As a 23 year old with a 2 year old newfie, they are 100% right in this. These dogs are not for everyone. They are huge, strong swimming dogs. For a giant breed dog, they are insanely active for that. But they are not a greyhound. My rule is, walk it as far as you are willing to carry them. Grooming. Well just have fun lol. He pulls piles of fur bigger then him about 4 times a year. Plus swimming they get matted very easily. And a day drying time... yaaaa These things are amazing but I've had 15 years experience with wolf hybrids. So this wasn't a crazy jump. But I think my Newfoundland is more demanding

Mine is 2.5yrs now and I did a lot of research but NOTHING prepares you for the grooming. I feel like she needs to be at the groomers 3 x per week! You can’t skip it-for that reason alone, I dont think I’ll get another even though they are the sweetest of breeds.

I do disagree with one small point you made. On grooming you said an option was trimming. But with double coat breeds you can permanently damage their coat. You should never trim double coat dog breed.

I have a Newfie puppy in front of me. I have wanted one for 10 years. My Newfie sleeps outside in the cold. He’s going to be huge. His mom was 140 and his dad was 165. I’m going to cart him and do recuse swimming. He’s my best friend! He’s not a guard dog I have another dog for that

Dude, number one should be drool. We have a drool rag that we have to carry around because our newf has constant shoe strings, and should you be too slow to catch them he will shake and fling them around your house to stick on the wall, furniture, one time my face, the kids, the tv, your brand new clothes, your mom when she visits… so much drool… so worth it. Best dog I’ve ever had.

I have been the lucky owner of two Newfies. The first, a male, was also a sort of guard dog 😀 My brother was coming to visit us, and as he had the key to our house he let himself in. I had forgotten to tell him about the new familymember 🙂 Everything went actually well, he was greated with much love, tailwagging, and slobber. But when he tried to go outside to get something from the car, the dog would not let him out. Guarded the door with growling and DEEEP barking. When my brother went back in, the dog followed, happy again. And this happened again when my brother thought it would be OK to go outside. The dog would not let him leave the house 😀 My brother was "trapped" in the house untill I got home from work 😀😀 No such thing happened for the rest of his stay. I had a hard time beliving my brother, so I had to wach the security cameras to see it with my own eyes.

I can't help my tiny stature, but I love big, goofy, lazy, shedding dogs and have a passion for grooming. After working excessively with my current service dog to get him confident and good with people and other dogs- I'd really love a naturally calm, confident, friendly pup. A major reason why I decided a newf would be great for me!

I am not sure I agree with point 1 about not being a good guard dog. A Newfoundland would not be suitable to be trained as an attack dog, but is very attentive and will try to draw you away from danger and protect you with her life if needed. The stature and bark of a on-guard Newfoundland is also very intimidating. The main reason why a Newfoundland may not be suitable to you would be the amount of work and cost to maintain its health.
