Newfs are great swimming dogs. They come from an
island off the coast of Canada called Newfoundland.
They have two layers of fur that repel water and help the
dog float. Newfs also don’t doggie paddle, they have a
swimming motion similar to a person. The last thing
that makes them good swimmers is the web type paws
that they have, this helps them swim faster in the water.
I hope that one day there is a Newf as a life guard at
White Water.
