Second, I am definitely familiar with the sound of a newfie’s deep, bellowing bark at odd hours of the night…although, with Phaneuf, it usually is the boogieman that she’s barking at! Of course this afternoon she saw two mallard ducks sitting in our neighbor’s front yard (from inside the house), and went nuts barking at them. We put her out in our [fenced] yard to see what she’d do, and she ignored them, but once she was back in the house the barking started all over again.

She’s so silly…and so falsely tough.
