The breed was named after the celebrated Victorian animal painter from Britain Sir Edward Landseer (1802-1873), who loved black and white dogs. Despite its British connections the breed is only recognized in its own right in mainland Europe. In much of the English-speaking world it is regarded as a black and white variety of the Newfoundland Dog, with which it shares its Canadian origins. Landseers are mainly bred in Germany, where the F.C.I. sources the breed standard.The male is easy to distinguish from the female, not only due to its size, but also by the head, which sports a much clearer stop. Just like Newfoundlands, Landseers are very good in the water. Not unimportantly, they are very close to their family, which they do not like to be away from for too long.
