Sweetness of temperament is the hallmark of our breed.
That is what the standard of the Newfoundland says, and is a key element attracting many of us to our dogs. It turns out that the University of Pennsylvania has developed a survey that anyone can take to assess his/her own dog. Thousands of dogs have been evaluated by this survey in the past ten years. The NCA has registered with the University so that we can also see the results of all the Newfoundlands who take the survey (if they follow the instructions below).
A big benefit of the survey for you is that it will also tell you whether some of the things your own dog does are, or are not, “typical.”
The Newfoundland Club of America will use these results to help determine what training materials and information will be of benefit to all Newfoundland owners.
So please do your part to learn a little more about your dog and our breed!
The NCA’s Charitable Trust Management Board, with the approval and support of the Board of Directors of the Newfoundland Club of America is administering a survey on the temperament and behavior of all Newfoundland dogs.
