I actually have a Newfoundland/Bernese mix. She is an amazing puppy.

On my second Newfie Berner Cross... I've got him so he never needs a lead though it took a little work. No drool with the Bernese' s longer muzzle. People gasp with delight when they meet him and he's a total charmer. BUT I had to be firm with him in adolescence, I think it's important to say.

Two of my most loved breeds. The Newfoundland I confess is my all-time favorite breed. Among so many other factors I love the shape of their big beautiful heads and also the shape and beauty of their eyes. However, the Bernese Mountain is maybe the most handsome breed of them all. But I love all dogs. I think I'm practically a dog myself in human form.

I would love to see a video like this comparing and contrasting the Newfoundland and the Great Pyrenees.

I've had three Newfies. The little female(140#) was smart, fast, and loved to swim all day. The little male(145#) was a character but not particularly smart. The big male (165#) was absolutely fearless and loved to fish all afternoon. They all considered themselves lap dogs and would climb on whenever given an opportunity(like when I fell asleep). Very affectionate, goofy, and loyal dogs. Good Luck, Rick

Love both breeds!! I had a bernese service dog and she was amazing! We currently have 2 newfs and a saint bernard. Newfs a 15 and 9, saint is almost 2..

Nice break down of 2 of my most favorite breeds. Have a couple or three questions, in your opinion. 1) How do either breed work as service animals? I know that they are not long lived as other breeds so that could be a factor. 2) You mentioned hot weather. How much hot outdoor temperatures can they handle for how long? 3) As I unfortunately live in a "warm" climate, can either breed get a spring haircut and have full hair by the time cold weather hits? Example: In the Summer it easily gets to 110° F and in the winter it can drop down to -25° F. I know, crazy temp swings. Thanks, great info!

[TaraHower]

I love this channel so grateful for the info!

[elliotmedina]

I currently have both and love them both

[TaraHower]

I took the quiz and got English mastiff. So are Newfoundland’s not considered guard dogs? Can you do a video comparing the two? In terms of demeanor history and purpose who they are best suited for based on lifestyle etc

[keraburke]

We love ours.
Shes amazing.
Her name is edma....Scottish for protector....
And shes my husband's services dog

What would you consider to be intense physical exercise? I like to go on long but low-mid intensity walks, around 3-4 hours, a couple of times a week. Would that be too much for a Newfie or a Berner to be doing consistently, do you think?

[chrisjcar]

Our two female Newfoundlands are about 155 lbs, each our Male Newfie “MuhFasa is about 175-180lbs all three took few lbs off over the winter

[madginger]

Two of my faves! Your perfect guard dog breed quiz still only offers me the Staffordshire. do i have to be dishonest to get another breed? I don't like Staffys or pitbulls. I wish I could get at least a 2nd option.

[SITRUUNAKAKKU-klsf]

tgye are both amazing... i like also saint bernard

[prphet]

I tried playing the quiz but it wasn't working.

[GrazianoMicucci]

Thank you for your amazing work guys, Newfoundland female is close to me right now and she is pleased to hear you 💜💜:)

As a former owner of a BMD and a current owner of 2 Newfie's (we've had 4) I want to point out another potential difference. BMD can be quite skittish or stand-offish of strangers. Our guy developed this as he got older to a really extreme behaviour issue. We learned that BMD's would haul the cart with the farmer to sell his goods, and the farmer would often put the money in the dog's collar and send him home. He was taught to avoid strangers on his journey. This was relayed to us by a dog trainer. Whereas Newfie's pretty much love everyone. Both very trainable and we've had certified water rescue, and therapy Newf's.

What is defined as "extreme activity" ? I mean, if you think about a Chihuahua or Pomeranian pulling carts (never going to happen), for that kind of dog it's almost certainly extreme, so you'd get a Newf or Berner to make the extreme unextreme. I'm stumped; What could be above this extremity-removed task where extremity is replaced?
