Newfoundland Water Dogs Rescue & Retrieve

On a recent trip to Lake Bennett we discovered that Katie and Louie are real water dogs. They had been in the water a couple of times before and weren't overly excited about it. This time something just clicked and suddenly Katie, a girl who doesn't like fetch, was begging us over and over to throw the dumbbell for her to retrieve. Plus, like a true Newfoundland dog hero, Louie came to Gary's rescue when he was "drowning". It was amazing as he has not had any water training at all.

Take the leash and life jacket off! They are water dogs and are perfectly equipped for swimming!

@wetsloppykisses2 We were in a state park which requires the use of a leash (although we did cheat a bit on a few retrieves) Also, you may notice that only one of our Newfs had a life jacket on. Katie's rear end sinks when she swims. She needs the support because she doesn't have a lot of exposure to water exercise.
