Girvan , Ayrshire, Scotland, UK .Newfoundland Dog Finn shows his life saving skills in the water at Girvan harbour. Newfoundland dogs are the ultimate doggy lifeguards. The fact that they have water resistant coats and webbed feet makes them fantastically strong swimmers and Newfoundlands appear to be hard-wired to save Newfoundland holds a rich and noble place in history. These benevolent giants, best known as working companions and natural swimmers, have an instinctive drive to protect the waterfront and rescue people in distress – particularly those in water.
