Newfoundland
History
The Newfoundland originated in country of Newfoundland
from dogs indigenous to the island. There is speculation
they
may
be descended
partly from the big black bear dogs introduced by the Vikings
in 1001 A.D. However it is more likely that their size
results from the introduction of larg mastiff type dogs,
brought by generations of Portuguese fishermen. With the
advent of European settlement, a variety of new breeds
helped to shape and re-invigorate the breed, but the essential
characteristics of the Newfoundland dog remained. By the
time of colonization was permitted in 1610, the distinct
physical characteristics and mental attributes had been
established in the breed for all time. In the early 1880s
fishermen from Ireland and England traveled to the Grand
Banks of Newfoundland where there were two main types of
working dog: one more heavily built, large with a longish
coat, whereas the other was lighter in build, an active,
smooth-coated water dog. The heavier one was the Newfoundland
and the other was the St. John's dog, the forerunner of
the Labrador Retriever. The dogs were used in similar ways
to pull fishnets and heavy equipment.
During the Discovery Channel's second day of coverage
of the AKC Eukanuba National Championship on December,
03, 2006, anchor Bob Goen reported that Newfoundlands exhibit
a very strong propensity to rescue people from water. Goen
stated that one Newfoundland alone once aided the rescue
of 63 shipwrecked sailors. Today, Kennel Clubs across American
host Newfoundland Rescue Demonstrations, as well as offering
classes in the field.
In 1832, Ann
Harvey of Isle aux Morts, her father, and a Newfoundland
Dog named Hairy Dog saved over 180 Irish
immigrants from the wreck of the brig Despatch.
