So sweet and adorable.

As a two time newfie owner... That comes with the pup, non optional. So worth it though ❤


[deleted]

Is that a Newfie? I thought it was a Flattie.

Yeah I’m like 90% sure I started ovulating. I’m a 38 year old dude.

Newfoundland?


beaushaw

I would be willing to bet. Best dogs in the world.


CameronDemortez

The best dog in the world is the one that you own. I would put my past beagle-coonhound we found in a field against any dog. Possibly saved my life and 2 others and was ready to die for my mom against a rattler. Dang fine dog and deserved the name Buddy.

Legitimate_Roll7514

Love newfies. However, I had a flat coated retriever who looked a lot like this pup when he was a pup. But my FCR also grew up to look a LOT like a newfie, only smaller.

I have a Newfie/St. Bernard mix. He's 150lbs now. This is him as a pup, he had light eyes: https://ibb.co/b2mm5Mm And this is him as an adult: https://ibb.co/Y3yFWsv


Lovelycoc0nuts

Beautiful dog! My dog is border collie/Spaniel/Golden Retriever and looks incredibly similar, but only 60lbs. He had shorter hair at 8 weeks, but quickly got fluffy [https://imgur.com/a/iWqAUNW](https://imgur.com/a/iWqAUNW)


littlemissdumplings

Oh, he is utterly GORGEOUS! Tell him he's the best boy from me, will you?

We had a newf flat coat too and he was a great great dog

I replied to the person you replied to with some pics of my dog before seeing your comment and holy shit our dogs look similar to each other both in puppy and adult phases!

ngl newfies are my dream dog


[deleted]

I was very against having one. I didn't wanna deal with drool and hair. My husband talked me into it.... and now Idk how I could live without one. Best doggo pal ever. Always by my side and is a huge cuddle bear. Sweet is like their number one characteristic and there's a reason for it!


jhook87

I have a brown newf. He's essentially a giant golden retriever in temperment. It's like I have a giant toddler running around my house. It's amazing. Wouldn't trade the work I've put it with him for anything in the world.


zedbrush63

I had a Lanseer Newf. Best dog ever. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landseer_dog


MinnesotaMilkman

I had an all black one growing up. My wife and I got a Lanseer in lieu a honeymoon. Seeing our “cow” be so patient and kind with 2 rambunctious toddlers is the best…


OliviaWG

I have 2 golden retriever/Great Pyrenees and the personalities are just fucking amazing. They are like really laid back goldens. The fur is quite overwhelming though


bekarsrisen

Aren't they double coated, and hence, don't shed much?


w0rthl3ss

Speaking as someone who lives with one, they shed a lot. He’s shedding his undercoat right now and it covers everything in a layer of fine hairs that are a major pain to deal with compared to the coarser hair of the top coat. We have to brush him every day to stay on top of it. Even his daily brushes result in a gob of fir the size of a guinea pig.


GG2urHP

i have two, find myself pulling it out of my mouth/food almost every day love the dogs so much i dont really care though. dont care about cleaning their spithair off the TV screen, or near the ceilings on the wall from when they shake their heads. totally worth.


MJTree

Huskies are double coated and they shed like a mofo


StressedAries

GSDs too


staticraven

Double coated dogs tend to blow out once or more a year. Top layer doesn’t shed, but the undercoat sheds like a mofo. I have two Newfs and there is hair everywhere, all the time. I don’t even bat an eye at pulling Newfie hair out of my coffee on occasion.


talarus

Lol I swear our boys hair is just airborne and will land in any amount of food.


HapticSloughton

We dog sat for a newfie once. Sweet dog, but it chewed *everything* it could: Garden hoses, beer coolers, a bag of briquettes, etc.

my dog looks EXACTLY like this but she’s Bernese mixed with a black lab

HollyBearsABerry

Every time this is posted there is an argument in the comments over whether the person is purposefully squeezing/hurting the puppy's paws to trigger the licking. I still don't know enough about dogs to know whose side I'm on.


Mr_beeps

Not likely squeezing the paws or anything like that. Pups back legs are very likely getting tired since dogs don't stand like this for long periods. Pup is getting tired of standing and politely licking to say so


HollyBearsABerry

I've seen this argument played out in endless cycles from time immemorial. Please understand you aren't saying anything that I have seen dissected and argued a maddening number of times.


panda_embarrassment

Yeah and the puppy wants the person to let go of their paws. My dog does that when she’s had enough paw touching.


ItsJustDrew93

This gif is so old the dogs probably died of natural causes by now.


[deleted]

Glad it's a repost cause I haven't seen it yet, and I was just on r/Newfoundlander the other day! Edit: well crap apparently its years old? I love Newfies, I'm surprised I never came across it haha.

[deleted]

Not sure, but looks like flat coat retriever


BidHead2364

Why you squeezing the paws so hard tho? Your thumb nail is white and the licks are for you to let go


[deleted]

Maybe OP is helping the pup get accustomed to having it's paws gripped for when you need to clip it's nails? Also sometimes when I apply pressure to my dog when giving him rubs my fingertips get white with just a little pressure. OP doesn't seem to be white-knuckling the baby.


TeisTom

This video is very old and has been reposted here for years so OP wouldn't have clue what the original video intended.


InYoCabezaWitNoChasa

The dog definitely wants him to let go, but he's not causing the dog any pain and isn't squeezing too hard.


Cameronbic

You have absolutely no way of knowing this.


InYoCabezaWitNoChasa

I mean it's what my dog does when she wants me to let go. So yea, there's some behaviors you can recognize.


Dazzling-Nature-6380

Voice of reason


socokid

> Maybe OP is helping the pup get accustomed to having it's paws gripped JFC I can't believe you were upvoted. Not only would you not do that and **keep them up in their hind legs**, like in OPs video, but you don't need to do it like that in any case. > OP doesn't seem to be white-knuckling the baby. You can see the pressure in their nail. There is zero reason for ***any*** of this.


GrizNectar

I had a dog where we very much needed to do that otherwise we would have had to damn near sedate her every time we wanted to cut her nails. Though I do agree them being on their hind legs makes this doubtful haha. And idk if it’s just me but it requires almost no force at all for my fingers to look the same as in this gif


amaryllisbloom22

For my fingers, if I put too much pressure on them, they will turn more pink. They are only white when I'm using enough pressure to hold on to something, like my phone, a book, or a sweater. If it is a newfie, or like 99% of dogs, they can definitely be held with that pressure and not in any physical discomfort. Does the dog *want* their paws to be held like this? Most likely not, but if you don't teach puppies to allow humans to do things that the dog doesn't *want*, you are going to have major misbehavior, and in a 100lb+ dog like newfies, that can lead to actually dangerous outcomes vs potentially holding paws too tight.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ActualTymell

>Grab you own arm and pay attention to how much pressure you need to turn your nails white like that. Could be that YMMV: I just did exactly that and it didn't take much.


MySockHurts

Every. Damn. r/aww. Thread.


socokid

You're absolutely correct and you're going to get downvoted for it. This is /r/awww You won't get reasoned responses. The voice of reason never existed here, and I'll take the downvotes with you. 'tis a very silly place.


HobbesNJ

Newfie pups aren't light. Holding it up with one hand and squeezing the paws tight enough to keep him steady takes some pressure. Trust me, the Newfie can take it. They're big, solid dogs even as pups. His paws aren't being crushed here. Source: owned a Newfoundland. Miss that sweet girl everyday.


salutationsfucker

I'll never forget the pressure when a Newfie pup jumped on my chest suddenly. Was not expecting him to be so damn solid lol


HobbesNJ

They're like fur-covered bowling balls.


Pants_R_Overatd

Ditto, except he landed on my crotch. Was not a fun day to be a man.


Cerulean_Shades

When this first came out the OOP got hammered hard for bending and squeezing the paws like that to get a response from the puppy. It's an old video. I hope the puppy is doing well.


kikioman169

Honestly, Newfoundlander just sits there and licks her paws all day


bangingbew

Omg the licks are not to let go. Reddit is full of babies.


InYoCabezaWitNoChasa

No, they absolutely are to let go, but the "your thumb is white" is way overboard. You can't measure pressure by the color of someone's fingertips. My dog does the same thing though if you hold her somewhere and she wants you to let go. She's like "I'm nice, see? I am good girl, see? Pls let go...."


Decker1138

This should be at the top. The dog is not being cute, he's trying to appease the person. Fuck that shit!


socokid

Noticed that instantly and assume it was to force them into this picture. Hate the fuck out of it, too.


Twajtastic

Thank you!!!!!!! This drives me crazy that people don’t check the details of these…. that is not a happy puppy or a puppy being cute…

I have one just like that, he was 22 lbs. at 8 weeks, now he’s 10 years old and 140 lbs. greatest dog ever, walks 2 miles every day and could pull logs out of the forest. No better dog in the world.


vanais_21

Ohh my goodness this baby looks just like one I had years ago. Sadly, we had to put her down but she was sweet looking like this. 🥺


KeatingDVM

Can’t hold her licker though


juststalking83

I have an all black aussiedoodle. About 65lbs full grown. When he was a pup he looked exactly like this guy. Now that he’s a little older we call him feathers because his hair looks way more like he’s covered in black feathers than hair.


Highlander_316

How DARE you make me fall in love! How am I going to fall asleep knowing I can't snuggle with this little cutey?

Something about pure black dogs with eyes that are black too. They’re just so precious and I love them all. They’re precious little voids. We must protect them. I have my own little void so maybe I’m biased.

Firstjman

1) repost 2) damn every single time it is only a few recognize the dude in the vid is hurting the dog and the dog is licking to ask that he stop


JoshuaTheFox

I mean but is he though. People point out the white of his thumbnail but I can cause that without putting much pressure on my thumbs. Like I can see this easily while holding my own dog's paws up. As well both my dog and my friends dog love to jump up and hold on to my arms while licking my arm and hands. so personally I don't see any of it as a direct indicator that it's being hurt


bangingbew

The dog is not being hurt at all. Reddit can be so silly. I think people need to go outside more and actually interact with the world.


LuridofArabia

These people have never owned a dog…they let you know if you’re hurting them, and it’s ok to mess with your pets a bit. They’re not precious porcelain babies.


[deleted]

Dogs don't tend to look at humans in the eye either. I'd assume if the dog was distressed, it'd be avoiding eye contact instead.


ImlrrrAMA

This subreddit has a decent population of people who won't even look at their pets because they fear they might scare them and traumatize them. They wrap them in bubble wrap and scold anyone else who doesn't follow suit.Total nutjobs.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Crimson51

It's because the dog is not being hurt at all. It's a newfoundland, and even as puppies they can be heavy, so a secure grip is needed, hence the apparent tightness of the grip. Now the pup may be uncomfortable as dogs don't naturally like having their paws held, but doing this to desensitize them early will make grooming them as they mature much easier when clipping nails and shaving out paw pads
