Samson, the 150 pound Newfoundland, is so big he can guard his family’s home entrance while sleeping, just by laying against the door. This is great, except when it blocks his own family from being able to open their own door. After many attempts, Samson finally makes a yawning sound and slowly moves out of the way. He seemed miffed that his slumber was disturbed and walks away. How funny!

Samson is only three months old but is learning so much thanks to little Sierra, his newest best friend and trainer. Sierra loves to work with her new puppy and they have already developed an unbreakable bond. Precious!

Samson wants to play fetch and mom agrees to play but tells Samson to bring her the toy so they can play. Samson looks around but doesn’t like the idea of finding the toy himself. How can he get out of doing any work to find his toy? Of course! He will employ his strategic “beg face”, mom can’t resist that! He probably has mom fetching the toy now too! Hilarious!

Samson’s family walked into an explosion of feathers that came from a pillow he destroyed while they were gone. The scene is unbelievable and a bit hilarious. Samson can tell he’s in trouble for something but might not be sure why as he is seen grabbing the pillow even after his mom found the mess. Oh Samson!

When Samson the Newfoundland doesn’t have his best friend Sierra’s undivided attention, he gets a bit antsy and starts to subtly demand it. Tonight, Sierra has extra homework and neither she nor Samson are thrilled about it. Samson, always wanting to help, is standing by in case Sierra needs anything. He knows that as soon as she is done, they can go play hide and seek or just relax on the couch. So sweet!

Sierra is very careful about taking perfect care of her Newfoundland puppy. She is showing her mom how she is using chew toys to shield the puppy from any undue pressure from her hugs. She is concerned her head might be too heavy for the puppy and cause him pain. She is a little girl with a big heart and a huge puppy!

One family was very excited to catch a glimpse of an adorable otter running through their backyard in Northern Minnesota. The cute pup hops unknowingly towards the cam and jumps into a quick slide across the snow. So cute!

Samson is showing off today and can’t contain his excitement! As a working breed, Samson the Newfoundland loves nothing more than to work, especially when he is working for delicious treats! Rolling over is a bit more difficult for Samson than the average sized dog, but Samson manages it considerably well! He even throws in a joyous “circle” for good measure. Good Boy!

Samson the Newfoundland knows exactly what to do once he spots mom holding treats. He instantly resorts to his tried and true beg face position where his sweet eyes make it impossible to resist. He even adds a quiet whimper when mom takes too long. What a professional!

Baby Sierra doesn’t want to take a nap and will pull out all the stops to try and get out of it. Even though she pretends to be upset, she starts laughing after mom calls her out. What a sweetie!

Samson the Newfoundland is fed up with his owner's selection of treats and has decided to make his point clear. Who says dogs can’t communicate? Hilarious!

There is something so adorable and funny about a guinea pig chewing on a carrot. Watching it in slow motion makes it even better. Ginger the guinea pig loves eating carrots and her owners could watch her eat them all day!

No matter how many times Samson watches his favorite movie, he seems to forget the cat is not real. Today he scared his mom when he took off and looked like he was going to jump into the TV. If the thought of a 150 pound dog jumping on the big screen TV isn’t scary enough, the burning fireplace below certainly added to mom’s stress. Oh Samson, maybe only people movies from now on.

These deer in Northern Minnesota have made it through hunting season, but must still continue to survive in the harshest conditions. Temperatures can get below -30F but deer have a durable coat that helps shelter them from the bitter cold. Their metabolism also drops in the winter so they can survive with less food. Spring is just around the corner and it can’t come soon enough for these beautiful creatures.

Samson the 150 pound Newfoundland refuses to be left out when his family decides to play catch. Little Sierra is ready to practice catching with her mom, but Samson is determined to play too. It’s amazing how he can use his powerful body to chase the ball but he holds back just enough to ensure he’s not hurting Sierra. What a good boy!

Samson has decided he’s not happy with his Christmas gift and so he is going to go through everyone else’s gifts and pick his own. He picks out a perfect gift and even tries it on!

It’s not easy being a little girl with food in her hand when Samson, the 150 pound Newfoundland, is nearby. But, Sierra has clearly dealt with her giant puppy many times before and has learned to masterfully evade him. It’s amazing that Samson has so much power and strength, but avoids causing any harm to his little girl. She jukes and ducks and and he counters all her moves. It seems they have these battles quite often and both seem to enjoy them. Samson is a wonderful mega pet!

Sierra loves to play hide and seek and she loves her extra large puppy Samson. Luckily, Samson loves to play hide and seek too. He can hardly wait as Sierra counts and tells him to stay as she runs to hide. Once she gives him the command to find her he bursts into action. Samson frantically searches for his best friend, who may or may not also happen to have a treat in her hand. Does he find her? What a pair!

A city on the Palos Verdes Peninsula in Los Angeles, California, is blessed to have wild peacocks in it’s suburban neighborhood. These unusual and magnificent creatures have had a home here longer than most residents. The majestic birds have become accustomed to having people around them and are comfortable with people. Most residents of this city cherish the local peafowl and defend their right to be there. A few critics complain of the noise and mess they make, though, causing some conflict among neighbors. Most would agree that these are exquisite creatures and a sight to behold. The video shows a male cleaning his feathers. The ornate details of the long flowing feathers can be seen as he slowly lifts his tail. This city in L.A. is lucky to have such regal wildlife.

Samson the Newfoundland does not like when his best friend Sierra has to go to school. Sometimes he he throws a fit and tries to get her to stay. Sierra can tell this is one of those mornings. She needs to get to school and knows she must make a break for it before he notices. Samson kicks into high gear attempting to keep everyone at home. Hilarious!

It’s very apparent that little Sierra has great love for her gigantic Newfoundland dog. Here we have a sweet moment of pure love and adoration. Samson possesses the great qualities that are the hallmark of the Newfoundland breed, namely gentleness. He has great strength and power, but as we see here, is content to be a perfect playmate and companion to this little girl. Samson is such a tolerant and patient pet, a true gift to Sierra and she knows it.

Samson the Newfoundland will follow Sierra anywhere she goes, including spaces that might be too small for this giant pup. Watch as he sends the Family Christmas Tree into a full spin as he plays with his little best friend Sierra. That was close!

Little Sierra has to watch her snacks closely when her 160 pound puppy is nearby. Samson has spotted Sierra’s cheese and crackers and is locked in on her treat. Sierra is clearly experienced in bobbing and weaving her way around Samson, but Samson doesn’t make it too easy for her. Samson is still very careful to not hurt Sierra and this little spar is hilariously adorable.

Samson the Newfoundland has decided to take finding treats into his own hands. He knows his owner sometimes keeps them on the top of the refrigerator and he is ready to check it out. Not many dogs can reach the top of the fridge, but Samson is one of those who can. Samson is taking counter surfing to another level.

There was a cascade of events leading to this near miss on the roadway in Southern California. One car, in the left turn lane is sitting too far to the right of the lane putting pressure on approaching cars to move out of the way. One car makes a decision to change lanes but fails to see the lane is not clear. Thankfully, the car in the third lane sees this and reacts defensively and avoids being hit. This is an example of how important it is to use caution changing lanes, and never change too quickly without checking and double checking the lane is clear.
