Anonymous Asks: "Any headcanons on how would swwsdj werewolf versions look like? Doesn’t have to be wolves exactly, though I think you could call them weredogs at this point
For me it’s Jack being a golden retriever, labrador and/or landseer mix, and Joseph being a Pyrenean mastiff or another type of a shaggy livestock guardian pup. Not sure about the others as of now"
So for the Wolf Den AU, I've mostly just been imagining them as like... giant wolves? When they're in human form, they're just themselves with... varying levels of wolfishness on top of it. But when they're in wolf form, they're just... Big Wolves. Which is saying something cause wolves are already big.
But as for what dog breeds they'd all be if they weren't wolves:
Today's Dog: The Newfoundland Dog! Newfies are extremely affectionate and aloof. They were created for assisting fishermen in Newfoundland, Canada, and have characteristic webbed paws and are double coated. This makes them very good swimmers, and they have a history of water-rescue dating back over two hundred years. When they were initially created they were likely much smaller before being bred with foreign mastiffs. Black-and-white Newfies are sometimes called Landseers after Sir Edwin Henry Landseer who painted them quite often. In the 1800s, only Landseer and black Newfies were considered “true” dogs of the breed, nowadays you can see grey or brown ones fairly often. Most of them are still black, though!
Today's Monkee: Lady of the Valley! This track is from Loose Salute (1970), Mike’s second solo album. It was written and produced by him, and naturally he sings lead. It was created with the First National Band. Lady of the Valley is a rolling track, it’s very enchanting. If you haven’t heard it I really recommend!
I was on some clickbait article about countries where german shepherd dogs are banned, and it listed Ukraine. Of course this is not true, but after a few quick google searches to see what could have possibly been taken out of context.... apparently until 2021 there used to be over 80 dog breeds listed as "dangerous" (such dogs required insurance, being muzzled in public, etc) and uhhh the german shepherd is by far Not the weirdest dog on this list.
Newfoundland Dog Breed Information: A Complete Overview of the Newfoundland
Newfoundland dogs are truly special companions. They are known for their large size, gentle nature, and loving personality. These majestic dogs have won the hearts of many dog lovers around the world, and it's easy to see why. Let’s take a closer look at what makes the Newfoundland breed so unique.
Origin and History
The Newfoundland dog comes from the Canadian province of Newfoundland. They were originally bred to help fishermen with their work. These dogs were strong and had excellent swimming abilities, which made them perfect for tasks like pulling in fishing nets, rescuing people from icy waters, and even pulling carts on land. Their hard-working nature and loyalty made them invaluable companions for fishermen.
Physical Characteristics
Newfoundlands are big dogs. Male Newfoundlands usually weigh between 130-150 pounds, while females weigh between 100-120 pounds. They have thick, water-resistant double coats that keep them warm in cold weather. Their coats can come in different colors, including black, brown, gray, and a combination of white and black (known as Landseer). One of the most charming features of Newfoundlands is their large, droopy jowls, which often cause them to drool. Many owners find this endearing, as it adds to their lovable character.
Temperament
Newfoundlands are often called "gentle giants" because of their sweet, patient, and calm nature. They are especially good with children, earning them the nickname "nanny dogs." Their loyalty and protective instincts make them excellent family pets. Newfoundlands are known to be very gentle and tolerant, which makes them great companions for families with kids.
Care and Maintenance
Owning a Newfoundland requires a lot of commitment. Because of their large size, they need plenty of space to move around comfortably. Their thick coats need regular grooming to prevent matting and to keep them clean. Newfoundlands also tend to drool, so be ready to clean up after them. Despite their size, they don’t need a lot of exercises. A moderate daily walk and the occasional swim will usually be enough to keep them happy and healthy.
Health Considerations
Like many large dog breeds, Newfoundlands can be prone to certain health problems. These can include hip dysplasia, elbow dysplasia, and heart issues. It’s important to take them for regular check-ups at the vet and to keep their weight under control to avoid putting too much strain on their joints and heart.
Training
Newfoundlands are smart and eager to please, which makes them relatively easy to train. It’s important to start training and socializing them when they are young to ensure they grow up to be well-behaved adults. Because they are so large, proper training is essential to make sure they don’t accidentally hurt someone by jumping or pulling too hard on the leash.
Finding a Newfoundland PuppyIf you’re thinking about adding a Newfoundland to your family, it’s important to do your homework. Make sure you find a reputable breeder who takes good care of their dogs. When searching for Newfoundland puppies for sale in the USA, ask about the health of the puppies’ parents and, if possible, meet them in person. This will give you a better idea of the temperament and health of the puppy you’re considering.

Number 180, the Landseer.
About 200 years ago, the first individuals of these dogs came to Europe from Newfoundland. The breed was named after the painter Sir Edwin Landseer, who painted the famous painting "A Distinguished Member of the Humane Society", and the dogs became very popular.
