hasslehoff and anderson stand-ins *snickerfits* toooooo funny! she also does avalanche, woodland and a bit of disaster. I've had over the course of 20 years 8 Newfies that I've done SAR work with

actually Newfies don't need huge yards and believe it or not make wonderful apartment dogs. they are so incredibly mellow and don't do the hyper running, yapping and so on. this is not to infer they don't play! but they certainly take the cue from the human
