A friend of mine has a newfoundland easily that size. I live near the beach and when my friend comes over with the dog we have to be careful when we take it to the beach. It jumps in and tries to save everyone who is swimming from drowning. It scares the crap out of people when they see this big bear looking dog come up to them in the water.

Apparently they were bred to be rescue dogs or something and they have webbed feet for swimming.

The girl I date has a Newfoundland about this size, this picture isn't fake. Her dog weighs over 145 pounds and makes my ears pop when it barks.

[–]lookcloserlenny 4 points5 points ago

Well its not fake but it is exploiting a perspective trick.

[–]LoversElegy 2 points3 points ago

No, it's really not. Newfies are huge.

Guy I went to college with's mom had one that was a show dog. He was dog sitting it one time when I went to there place to pregame before we hit the bars and they always leave the door unlocked.

So I roll up and bust down the door (as a baws does) and sitting on the couch by the door is this goddamn black bear that looks up at me. Immediately slammed the door shut and called him on the cell. "Dude....there is a FUCKING BEAR in your living room!" Door opened a moment later and I got introduced to Clay his 220lb show dog. The dog tried to give me a hug and crushed me into the wall and slobbered all over me.

Friendly as fuck, had to wear a bib because he drooled so much. If they didn't die quickly from being so huge I'd want one.

Annoying ass yip-yip dog? Lasts 20 years. Giant cuddly bastard? hope for half.

Yeah, my aunt used to keep newfies, but the last one she had was just a puppy, and thought he was lap dog, despite weighing at least 175 pounds. In and of itself, that wouldn't have been a problem, but she also ran an after-school daycare program out of her house, and the kids would get freaked out by this big fluffy monster charging up to them and trying to get them to throw a ball or whatever, so she eventually sold him to some people who owned a farm a few hours away. Last I heard, he was spending his days terrorizing their sheep.

[–]TheBawlrus 2 points3 points ago

It sounds like the theme with them is Enormous, Scary, and amazingly cuddly/happy. That's really what draws me to the breed.

That and Im guessing a dog that wants to hug you at all times helps with the foreveralone feelings.

[–]KingOfTheMonkeys 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yup. Also, for one reason or another, he really liked to chew on my feet. I didn't mind though. It kinda tickled.

[–]IcarusRisen -2 points-1 points ago

Oh yeah, the good old "we sold him to a farm" story. Glad to hear it helped you deal with the whole euthanasia thing.

This is a legit picture. Newfoundland dogs- Male: 65-80 kg, 143-176 lbs. 75 cm (30 in) tall. Female: 40-70 kg, 110-154 lbs. 68 cm (27 in) tall. "some Newfoundland dogs have been found to weigh over 90 kg, 200 lbs. The largest Newfoundland on record weighed 120 kg (260 lbs) and was 6 feet from nose to tail" -wikipedia. (but you can find the same information on more reliable sites) Their nickname, besides newfies, is "the gentle giant"

I was sitting at a park eating pizza with some friends once, and it was dark and I saw a dog about that big (it was white) and I kid you not I almost shit my pants thinking a polar bear was running towards me.

Image search 'Newfoundland Dog' ಠ_ಠ

[–]Jason_R 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Look at sizes after that image search, also, to give you some perspective ಠ_ಠ

They're big and heavy, they're not as big as a car.

[–]MrsRatt 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Neither is the dog in the picture. Newfies get huge. Some larger than others.

[–]Jason_R 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

"Height Male 75 cm (30 in) Female 68 cm (27 in)"

So unless the dog in the picture is literally twice the size of the standard dog, it's forced perspective.

[–]MrsRatt 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

The woman could be small which DOES add to perspective, and the dog could be large even for a Newfie. Average is a very important word.

[–]Jason_R 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's nose and mouth are bigger than her face in the picture. Have you ever seen one of these dogs in person?

Here is an article about possibly the world's tallest, and here is a picture with normal perspective

[–]LoversElegy 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

My friends newfie's mouth and nose is about the same size as my face. I see you only quoted the average height for males and female newfies I had posted. Those are averaged. Notice I had also said that there was a newfie on record that was 6 feet and 240 lbs. There are some huge dogs out there.

Have you seen these dogs in person?

[–]Jason_R 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

6 feet long, not tall. I have, they're in the dog park I take my lab too all the time. You're right, a 5ft tall dog sitting down seems perfectly reasonable, I don't know why I bothered to question this.

[–]Jason_R 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

[–]LoversElegy 0 points1 point ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

When did I ever say tall? Never. Look at my comments, I said from nose to tail for the 6 foot dog. The dog in the picture is sitting, not standing. That's where the nose to tail comes into play. Dear gods people, learn to read.

And yes, a newfie can reach 5 feet sitting down. My friends dog reaches my shoulders when it's sitting. I'm 5'1. The newfies father was even bigger.

Now, as for this photo. This dog is sitting on a table, starting from the bottom of the woman's hips. The average female torso is 22.6", from crotch to shoulders. The dog extends maybe a foot past her head. So how does that equate 5 feet sitting? It doesn't. Nice try though.

[–]clickwir -5 points-4 points ago

Start with photoshop and put the dog back to original size.
