Newfoundland Breed Overview

Want to bring home an adorable Newfoundland puppy for sale? You’ve come to the right place. At Keystone Puppies, our mission is to help Newfoundland puppies find their forever homes. In addition to Newfoundlands, we work with a range of other breeds — including Bernese Mountain Dogs, English Mastiffs, Newfypoos, and more! All our puppies are bred with the highest standards of ethical integrity — free of common genetic defects that impact less responsible breeders — and are raised in happy homes where they’re treated like part of the family before becoming part of yours!

Newfoundlands are a large, strong breed that originates from the island of Newfoundland in Canada. They were originally bred to help fishermen with tasks such as hauling nets and pulling carts. This breed is known for their gentle and patient nature, and they quickly became popular as working dogs and family pets. Today, they are still prized for their reliable character and impressive strength. Although they are no longer used for heavy labor, Newfoundlands continue to be dedicated workers, serving as assistance dogs, search-and-rescue dogs, and therapy dogs. They are also excellent swimmers, and many enjoy taking part in competitive dog sports such as dock diving and water rescue.

Newfies are gentle giants. They are known for their loyalty, bravery, and strength. But they are also calm, patient, and good with children. These pups are intelligent and trainable, but they can be stubborn at times. While they need a lot of exercise, they are just as happy to curl up on the couch for a movie night. Newfoundlands are loyal companions that will bring joy to your life.

The breed was recognized by the AKC in 1886 and grouped as Working.

Newfoundland Puppy Health Considerations

Though generally very happy and long-lived — with an average lifespan of around 8-10 years — our Newfoundlands for sale are not without their unique health concerns. Like every breed of dog, there are a few conditions you should be aware of before you consider purchasing one of our Newfoundland puppies for sale. Understanding the risks allows you to know the signs and prevent small health concerns from turning into big ones. Newfie puppies are at a somewhat elevated risk for developing the following conditions:

  •    Joint Issues
  •    Epilepsy
  •    Hypothyroidism

One of the most common health problems for Newfoundlands is hip dysplasia, a condition in which the hip joint does not fit properly into the socket. This can lead to pain and arthritis later in life. Newfoundlands are also susceptible to elbow dysplasia, a similar condition affecting the elbow joint. Other health concerns for this breed include heart disease, eye problems, and skin infections.

With some basic knowledge of the breed’s health concerns, you can be sure to give your Newfoundland the best possible chance at a long and healthy life. Finding a Newfie puppy for sale from a reputable breeder can also dramatically — although, not eliminate — the risk of your dog developing some of these conditions. At Keystone Puppies, we work exclusively with experienced breeders who are committed to producing healthy & happy pups.

Newfoundland Puppy Coat & Coat Care

The Newfoundland dog breed is known for its thick, water-resistant coat. The outer layer of the coat is coarse and oily, while the undercoat is dense and soft. This double-layered coat helps to protect the dog from cold weather and rough terrain. Newfies do not shed very much, but their coats still require regular grooming. The best way to groom a Newfoundland is to brush the coat with a stiff-bristled brush. This will help to remove any dirt or debris that may be tangled in the coat. It is also important to regularly check for mats or tangles, as these can cause discomfort for the dog. With proper care, a Newfoundland’s coat will stay healthy and lustrous for many years.
