The Newfoundland is a large working dog. They can be either black, brown, grey, or white-and-black. However, in the Dominion of Newfoundland, before it became part of the confederation of Canada, only black and Landseer coloured dogs were considered to be proper members of the breed.
My daughter used to babysit one of these dogs for one professor in college, she said, every time she let him out, he'd just sit on the ground, not moving at all. She'd have such a hard time to get him up. They're BIG dogs, you know. :-))

This photograph was composed while driving through rural Newfoundland. Scenes such as this are common - and help paint a picture of a way of life: dependent on the sea; somewhat solitary; resilient; awe-inspiring.
I was just taking a picture of this bird island seeing what I could see when a whale jumped just as I clicked the shutter. I had no idea they were there. It was amazing and if you look you can see there were two whales. What an evening in Newfoundland.
We were in search of icebergs around Twillingate when we spotted a couple taking photos of this gorgeous Newfoundland dog. I had to ask if I could snap a few shots. It was nice to have an iceberg in the background as well.
A composite view of the beautiful province of Newfoundland. Images were taken over a few different visits and cobbled together. The logo was also created for this final image.
I'm deep in the archives ... this was taken more than two decades ago with my first digital camera somewhere off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada. Word to the wise, keyword your photos as you make and catalog them, not 20 years later. :)
