I strange bear-dog is probably a Newfoundland. I LOVE THEM! Here's why:

Lewis had one on the Lewis and Clark expedition.

They are huge! I mean 150 lbs huge. And oh, so huggable.

They are the mellowest, gentlest, kindest dogs you'll ever meet.

They are the best dog swimmers because they have fully webbed feet and swim with a breast stroke rather than a doggy paddle. They even have waterproof coats!

They will save you if you're drowning. They may "save" you even if you just get a little too rowdy in the pool. One dog saved something like one hundred people off a sinking ship, and he had never been trained in water rescue!

Nana from Peter Pan was a newfie.

I hope you enjoyed this brief lesson in the joys of Newfoundlands:)
