Are Landseer Dogs Aggressive To Strangers

    When it comes to selecting a dog, you probably want one that is friendly, whether that's toward people, other pets, or both. In other words, a happy-go-lucky pooch that gets along with everyone.

    While most canines are absolutely fond of people, some are really sociable and love to meet new people all the time. Friendliness doesn't necessarily depend on breed. Most dogs are friendly if they have been introduced to new people, places, and experiences as they were growing up.

    So, generally, you can make any pet dog into a friendly dog if you ensure they have an energetic social life and a happy home. Practically all canines will be social with their owners, but some breeds were bred as guardians and can be wary and even hostile toward strangers.

Landseer Information

The Landseer should convey the impression of a tall, powerful and well-balanced dog. The legs are comparatively longer than those of the black Newfoundland, especially in the male. The Landseer is elegant, harmonious, agile and hardy. The wide muzzle is rather short and squared-off. The small, triangular ears are pendant. The small eyes are dark brown; the conjunctiva should not show as it does in the St. Bernard. The nose is black. The feet are webbed for better swimming. Dewclaws should be removed on the hind legs. The tail hangs down.

The Landseer Newfoundland dog is known for its sweet disposition, gentleness, and serenity. They enjoy swimming and tend to drool, though not as much as some other giant breeds. While the Landseer European Continental Type is also sweet, affectionate and enjoys swimming, it is quite different from the Landseer Newfoundland in regard to response, agility and speed.
