Landseer

General: These dogs give the impression of a tall, powerful and well-balanced animal. The legs of the dog are comparatively longer than those of the black Newfoundland dog. The coat is soft to the touch, with good undercoat. It is slightly wavy on the back.

Origin: Canada.

History: One of the few native North American breeds they come from Newfoundland Island in Canada, where they were said to have first arrived with the British and French fisherman who reach these North Atlantic shores. Landseer ancestors may have included the Great Pyrenees and Tibetan Mastiff. They were bred by the early settlers to pull sleds, hunt and guard. They adapted to the rugged conditions of Newfoundland by developing webbed feet and an oily coat which allows them to remain in the water for long periods of time.

Temperament: responsive and docile not a guardian dog.

Size: 110-150 pounds.

Today's Uses: They were bred by the early settlers to pull sleds, hunt and guard. This makes them great dogs for Carting and Weight Pull.
