What is the activity level of the breed?
This easygoing dog loves the outdoors and country living, especially if he has access to water. When Newfoundland are young exercise should be limited as their little bodies grow at an alarming rate and too much exercise can cause serious harm to the joints leading into life time trouble. Once Newfoundland are fully matured they require moderate exercise. This breed gets pretty laid back as older dogs. But young puppies are rarelly laid back, and often have more energy than family expects.
