He needs a good deal of exercise, attention, and space, but with the right owner, he can be a friend like no other. With his lion-like looks and deep bark, he makes an intimidating watch dog.Originally from Germany, where he was created through crosses between newfoundlands longhaired saint barnad , this giant breed requires a commitment to training and a high tolerance for mischief and mess. He looks beautiful in the show ring, but his natural state is more along the lines of damp and muddy than leonine elegance. That, along with long fur and copious shedding, makes this a poor choice for neatniks. Early and extensive soicalization and training with plenty of consistent expectations will turn him into a family friend like no other, but without them he's mischievous and destructive.
