‘Newfies’ jump in at the deep end
IF ever you have the misfortune to fall into a lake at Rother Valley Park, try to make it on a Sunday.
That’s the day when Newfoundland dogs are practising their water rescue techniques.
The dogs, and their owners, are members of Rother Valley Training Group, which in turn is part of the Northern Newfoundland Club.
These big bears of dogs have been bred for swimming and it’s a hard job keeping them out of the water – even when the air temperature is in minus figures.
