The Newfoundland dog I admire the most is a rescue, Gander, the mascot of the Royal Rifles of Canada in World War II. My precious boy, Gander Bear, was named in his honour. You can see a photo of this incredible dog and read his story in the link below:

When the memorial in Ottawa to the Hong Kong battle was being designed, the survivors unanimously demanded that Sergeant Gander’s name be included – of course to me that was a no-brainer.
Newfondly,
