NEWFOUNDLANDS
KNOW
THE JOY OF BEING OWNED BY A NEWF!

From
Peter Pan's "Nana" providing gentle, ever present care of her
charge to the historic rescue of Napoleon from the icy coastal
water, the Newfoundland captures the definition of "Man's Best
Friend!"
His
countless stories of loyalty and courage steal the headlines of history:
What began in 1803 as an assignment from
Thomas Jefferson to find a trade route from the east to the Pacific Ocean,
the historical Lewis & Clark Expedition became an odyssey of adventure
that no one could have imagined.
From
the historical original journals they write...
"In
preparation for the journey, Lewis interviewed scientific experts of the
day to gain knowledge of the astronomical navigation, geography, field
medicine, botany and other natural sciences. He and Clark set out from
the lower Missouri with approximately 45 qualified enlisted man and hired
civilians. Lewis' dog, Seaman, "a dog of the Newfoundland breed," made
the entire trek as well."

Known
for a kind and loving disposition, the Newfoundland has long been regarded
as an excellent choice in companions for children. By their very nature,
they nurture and protect those they love.

It
has been said that although a Newf may be bought and paid for by his owner,
in truth it is the Newfie that owns his master! His care is constant,
unconditional, loyal, abundant, responsive and fearless.
