FUN NEWFI FACT'S!!!

I truely have NEVER been a dog lover, I really haven't but since having these dog's I can totally see why people go COOKOO, after these dog's so here are some FUN fact's!!!
1. Did you know that Napoleon Bonapart was rescued by a Newfoundland, when he was drowning in the ocean?
2. Nana in Peter Pan was a Landseer Newfoundland!
3. Lewis and Clark had a Newfoundland on their journey, and when one of them died, it starved itself to death, from not leaving his grave!
4. In world war II. A Newfoundland was given a medal of honor for rescuing people who were drowning after their ship was attacked!!
5. Newfoundland's have webbed feet, and broad chest's to combat the ocean, they do not doggie paddle, but do the breast stroke!!
6. They are known as the "babysitter" I heard a story of a woman who was talking to her friend by the pool, her toddler would crawl to the pool, and the Newf would grab it by it's diaper, and bring it back and sit, again and again this would go on!!!
7. In their description it is known for it's SWEETNESS, isn't that interesting what other dog do you know of that talk's about personality!!
8. They might be big, but they actually only eat as much as a Lab!
9. They are working dog's, they need to feel like they are doing something, put a doggie backpack on them when you go hiking, make them run around pulling a tree limb, they LOVE it!!
10. They will let man or animal come near their family, as long as they have good intention's, if not they will use their size to intimidate!! They will simply put their body in front of yours, put their head down no barking, no growling just stare them down!!
11. It is a myth that these dog's don't bark, they absolutley DO, but I have noticed it is alway's with purpose, I know exactly what bark is for what, feed me, someone is here, and hey what ya doin!!

These dog's really are what they say they are, it is REALLY fun to see their SWEETNESS!!!

He is the sweetest black bear we have ever known!! He is 3 years old, and in perfect breeding condition!!

He has the funniest personality he literally laugh's it's really fun to see, and he is extremely intellegent!!! We now have our perfect pair!!!!

ISABELLA OF THE SHADY HOLLOW


Bella is our beautiful brown female!! She weighs 130 pound's, and is in perfect condition!! She is our sweet baby girl! We got her from South Dakota when she was 2 month's, and she was a BIG baby!! The first thing I noticed was how unbelieveably sweet she was, she was our first Newfi and I often wondered if they were everything they said they were!! I was NOT disappointed!! She only ever want's to please you, which is what they say about Newfi's!! She is VERY aware of everything around her, she want's to know where the kid's are at all time's!! No wonder they call them "The Babysitter"!! She is fabulous with all animal's in fact has a few deer friend's in our forrest, they will come right up a few feet way, she doesn't bark, she just sit's with her tongue out, and stare's!! These dog's are so big it's like being around people, it's a really neat experience to be in their presence!!
