As they say, not all angels have wings. Some have furs and paws. In this case, it is a really fluffy and loving one
Amen 🙏 yes indeed
Exactly!! ❤🙏
we anthropomorphize too much
What a heart warming story.
I’ve always told ppl my dogs are angels disguised as dogs👼
I had a dog save me from myself as well. More incredibly, he was not mine and he appeared out of nowhere on very remote beach that was otherwise empty. He came up silently and immediately leaned hard against me; there he stayed and we watched the water until I finally had the strength to leave. When we were halfway up the rocks I turned to him but he was gone. I looked everywhere and went back for days to find him again. When vacation was over I was on the dirt road leading to the paved route and at the last driveway there he was, sitting alone but at full attention watching me slowly pass by. I could see his family up by the house and wondered if they knew that they were living with a beautiful and powerful spirit; disguised as a small dog?
Wow!!!! 🙏❤️
Crying. Hugs to you and the angel in dog form.
I call that a God shot!
@@pjt3887 Not particularly religious but do agree as mere mortals we do not know everything. Some things are "simply" experienced on a different level...hopefully one is open to receiving it if/when it does occur. I have never lived without a dog since that week 23 years ago. Each dog has been from the Humane Society and all are given the best possible life I can offer. I say it often "humans do not deserve dogs"...I work hard at being an exception; to give back what I was so tenderly given...a second chance🙂
@@tphillips6952 t. You are a very special person and you and pups are very special and lucky. Your wavelength is perfect! 🥰
You had the courage to address that you had a hard pregnancy with depression. Love that your little (not really little) floofinator was integral in you coming through.
GAGAGAGAGAGA! I will now count to 3 and then I am still the unprettiest TH-camr of all time. 1...2...3. GAGAGAGAGAGA!!! Thank you for your attention, dear liz

There is no such thing as depression
@@kenshin7315 bad attempt at trolling lmfao. Keep practicing, put a bit more effort into it next time...
@@rippawallet I don't think you will get a response. He's suffering from depression
Her story had me in tears. Depression is such an evil invading force which can happen to anybody. I am so glad she as his support. 💞
Sir Winston Churchill had depression and called it his black dog.
I had a bear, she passed over the rainbow last year, they are the best dog!!! They are very protective and they are often referred to as "NANNIES" because they are good taking care of children. They are very sweet gentle giants, that look like a bear. Birds scattered when my dog was with me and sometimes they would dive-bomb her because they thought she was a threat, I guess. Beautiful Dog!
I hope you focus on the happy times together. I lost my cat a year ago so I know now difficult this is. I'm getting better with the happy memories even though I cry for her. My heart goes out to you ❤️
@@margareteraab3899 I understand, Margarete. I love cats, very much, too!! And have lost💔 😿 💜 The hardest part is "the good bye."
Aren't they amazing? Mine raised my son. But good luck letting the kids swim. I call Newfs rentals. In my case way too soon.
With much love for your loss. I still scrape saliva off the back of my leather couch..newfs remain with us forever
I grew up with a Newfoundland
And I agree with you, they are super sweet.. I woke up on my 13th birthday and saw a white sheet covering something in our backyard.. I ran out to uncover it thinking it was a birthday present. It was my dog that had passed away during the night. His name was bugbear. 40 years later and I still think about him..
@@brianwills4398 omg Brian. That's got to be one of the saddest stories I've read in a year. I don't know what to say. Wow tears
All of them are really our own personal therapy dogs at heart - They're the most patient, attentive, compassionate listeners who never interrupt or talk over you, they are always aware of every movement, where you are & what you're doing, they can make you smile even when you are struggling to find joy elsewhere in life, they tell you if new people entering your life are friend or foe and they instinctively know if you are needing some extra care & love. All this and they really ask for so little in return.
I don't blame them for not recognizing this dog as a dog, they really grow big and it's impressive.
they mostly are just "no thoughts head empty OH A LAP LET ME ON YOUR LAP"
I was working at a construction site at the edge of a forested area and a newfie came walking out of it. I 100% thought it was a bear until I saw some girls with a leash behind it.
Love them, but I wish they had a longer lifespan.
I don't blame them either. The size of the Newfoundland dog is amazing. Not to mention their chill and laid-back demeanor.
My grandmother had a newfy and she often had aninal control and the police at her house because someone called about a "giant bear" in her yard
@@corig1939 After a coiuple of calls and visits, knowibng the adress, one would think that that both the police and animal control, would know it is not a bear, but a dog.
Guardian..therapist..nanny..cuddle-bug...
Napoleon does it all. What a sweet, beautiful companion & family member.💙
You are so lucky to have that beautiful animal in your life.
They are gentle giants and extremely loyal companions. Beautiful dogs youre so lucky.
God bless this dog that came into your life at just the right moment.
Anyone with depression should have a dog ,so glad he helped you. What a beautiful ,gentle giant 🐕🐕🐕💙💙
As someone with depression, I most definitely shouldn't have a dog. Cats suits me better. I love dogs but I'm not suitable to own one.
@@Ikajo Same goes for me. A dog would give me stress because I have to get out and walk it, play with it etc. It's too much for me.
@@citroniron3293 Yup. For someone who can barely get out of bed, a dog isn't the right choice. I grew up with dogs, so I know quite well what is required.
I have a nine year old pug that helps immensely with my depression. I'm also schizophrenic and he knows when I'm having panic attacks or hearing voices. I'm pretty well controlled on medication, but I don't know where I'd be without a family that loves me and my Kismet.
It depends on the person. I need a push when I’m in a depressive state and having someone else to care for, to feed, to go outside and walk helps me get through it. Just the routine of it can keep me going until I start to come out of it.
The very definition of a good boy.
You got that right! He is phenomenal! ❤
It's like animals feel your pain and see all the emotions.
imagine being a relative of this woman and visiting her first time without knowing the breed of her dog
Whats the breed of this dog?......Tibetan mastiff?
@@keshav8684 Newfoundland
Grandma has a dog. When I opened the door out came Sailor..OMG I nearly peed, but fell in love.
A big moosey dog! Lol
And I thought my 70 lb American Staffordshire was big.
*Not!* 🤣
My family had a newfie when I was a kid and he was awesome and everything people say about the breed. However! I have encountered a hyper aggressive newfoundland. Not to me, he literally tried to eat my chihuahua's. (no it was not playful, the owner had a collar that worked as a muzzle and between that and me pulling my dogs by their leashes was the only thing that stopped it.)
I've only met one that had that issue though. Every other newfie is exactly as advertised.
Napoleon is the most friendliest "bear" I ever saw! He's a nice dog for being loyal to his owner and her child (in and out of the womb). He's truly one of God's furriest angels.
Look up orphan wildlife centre. They have so real bears there and they are very friendly and adorable.
Standard newfie
Awesome dogs! A neighbor had two Newfies when I was young (both weighed about 180 I think) and we would have them pull us around on our skateboards! Not fast, just walking around. The dogs would actually bring us the skateboards, carrying them in their mouths. This was the late 70's when skateboards were mostly small plastic things that weighed maybe a pound or two. Always great fun and great protection. Nobody messed with us when we were riding.
Growing up my family dog would pulls my siblings and me in a toboggan in the winter. He was a husky terrior cross.
Aww, this is adorable, especially the part about the dogs bringing you the skateboards like “Hey, let’s go for a ride!”
omg that sthe best dog ever
he saved your life
make you feel better
protects the children
thats a amazing dog
Aww what a sweet, caring big boy!!
He is just a bear 😭🤧.
Happy He is protecting his fam and that They take care of Him too!
I can normally fight back tears through these vids, but this one got to me. I have struggled years with depression and anxiety and her sharing her story really touched me. I'm so glad the stigma of mental health is continually being broken. ❤
That's so heartwarming story.
Newfie's have the biggest hearts, both the Dogs and The People.
What a cool looking dog he does look like a bear. He's beautiful and cute. Your son is adorable as well! I hope you are feeling better. God sends us help in mysterious ways. Great video
Bears are also beautiful ;)
@@dianac.7613 yes they are. Have a happy Sunday
I love the way u kept it short but direct . Totally cooL. UR AWESOME 😎,
i can't believe she shared her story about depression, especially while she was pregnant. she is so strong!! 😭😫😔
"He really is an angel, in the shape of a Newfoundland. It's the best kind". I'm teary-eyed too. ❤❤❤😭
What a beautiful friend and protector..
As someone who grew up in a house with Newfoundland’s, and still has them as pets in my own house, they are basically Velcro dogs: they stick to you no matter what. They’re also born babysitters, the breed is well known for having a love of babies and children. You do have to be careful they don’t accidentally knock a child over, but otherwise I’ve never heard of a Newfoundland that was dangerous. They are protective if strangers come near, but they won’t just randomly attack strangers either. When I was around 4 I used to walk one of our Newfoundland’s on a leash alone, which I can recall always got a lot of looks from people. It’s especially funny when people will cross to the other side of the street if you’re walking one, they just assume it could be an aggressive dog.
Lol that's cute!!
This one really touched my heart…I can so relate to the rough pregnancy with depression. So thankful for this story and Napoleon helping to get to the other side
This dog certainly is "angelic"! He really seems to have formed a bond with your little boy when he was still in your womb. We definitely don't know just what kinds of "powers" animals have! We had one just like him for 13 years and his temperament and size were a lot the same as your Napolean's. He was one of a litter of 6 puppies that my husband and I found in a culvert by a busy road not far from our house in the country. Turned out that the mother belonged to a man who lived about a 1/4 mile from there, down that road, and that poor mama had no shelter at all, anywhere, so she had done the best she could, bless her! We kept Sam's sister Tipper, and found homes for the other 4 puppies, two to each home. We never knew who their papa was, but the vet said Sam was definitely a Newfie! He was so huge and sweet and lovable and laid-back that we sometimes would call him Doofy Sam. He will always have a special place in our hearts, as will Tipper and the other four! Napolean brings back lots of sweet memories to us. You and your son are so fortunate to have him, and he, you!
He is AMAZING. A big beautiful hero.
U can see it in that cute fluffs eyes that he really cares for his mama and her son. God bless that dog
Wonderful discourse about human nature, including the down depressed side that we often feel shouldn’t be aired. What a wonderful woman!
Just to let you know my daughter also suffered with depression after giving birth. Very hard for her as she's had 3 pregnancies while finishing a Doctorate . Things are better now but not 100% back to how she use to feel. Sentient Beings are our salvation.
It’s always the giant dogs that’s extremely gentle and sweet. It’s the little ones that’ll eat your fingers
I used to have a Newfoundland just like Napoleon. His name was Nelson.
💐🐕🦺
How precious that you have a great protector and someone who loves you. You have been blessed🌹
Heartwarming to see such a caring dog😊
I am grateful for your courage to speak about mental illness in a practical way people can relate to.
What a lovely family you have. Although you credit your dog, you are the real hero! Thank you for sharing.💓
I'm so sorry that you went through that while you were pregnant. What a blessing that you had that angel with you to walk you through the dark to the light. Thank you for sharing what you went through. It's important for others to know that it can happen and you can come out on the other side.
Cheers to Napoleon!
If a wild beasts chooses me to be their companion I'd graciously accept it.
Newfies are awesome and taking good care of their people.
This is probably the most beautiful story I’ve heard and hits home with me. I think Napoleon has saved her life daily and she feels that love, and there’s plenty of reciprocity. ❤️
I can't even imagine how many lives dogs have saved.
I love when people talk about the harder side of pregnancy, everyone goes through some level of this but we’ve been conditioned to not dare say it lest you be labeled ungrateful. It is NOT a an indictment on anyone else’s character that a pregnant woman talk about their own experiences, most importantly their struggles. People need to stop projecting their own emotions and desires onto others, particularly when it comes to vulnerable pregnant people. Stop gatekeeping other people’s experiences. This woman’s struggles have nothing to do with and is NOT connected to how much she wants or doesn’t want this pregnancy, it is quite literally only how she’s feeling mentally and emotionally in the moment due to the rollercoaster of hormones fluctuating through her body. Stop judging and start listening. We all stand to learn something from everyone’s individual experiences if only we’d be willing to quiet ourselves long enough to hear what others are actually saying.
I commend her for her willingness to be open and honest about a difficult time in her life and share what helped her through ♥️👏👏👏
This fluffball was her rock through a difficult time and now is her boys best friend. This is such a beautiful story. 🥰
I agree. The father wasn’t mentioned and I am sure it’s scarier to think of raising a child alone. There could be other things going on in a person’s life she didn’t mention. She didn’t have an abortion. Not everyone has an easy pregnancy and just bounces back like celebrities.
the baby is most precious
i’m not crying, my eyes are just sweating QwQ
I really feel with this story. I knew I had depression from a young age, but I went through a really bad cycle of it when I dealt with emotional abuse from a caretaker who was also suffering mental illness. I was in a really dark place and thought of ending it multiple times, and every time I did, there was my maine coon cat, either yowling outside my door to be let in, or meowing at me and then head-butting me and demanding I cuddle him instead. He saved me many times, I can’t imagine life without him. Hes actually on my lap now.
🤧 aww he's such a gorgeous big boy, and yes he's your best pal, he will protect the one's he loves most, and he will get you throw the darkest time's, my dog does, she's not a Newfoundland but a staffie and she's got me throw a lot of very bad time's with my depression. Great video thanks 💖😁
He is so gorgeous. You are so lucky to have such a great big friend!
Thats not a bear. Hes just a big, hairy friend. Real big guy too. Probably saved her life for sure. So cool to see and hear stories like this. Was fun to watch. Great video
Having had 2 Newfoundlands in my life, they are truly wonderful dogs with the amazing capacity to love and protect their humans. It is a very Newfie trait to want to protect their family. So sorry to hear that you had a difficult pregnancy, but very happy for you that you made it through it and have a beautiful boy now.
God bless you and Napoleon. Sometimes a pet chooses us for reasons we may not understand at first but then they become clear and that's when we become grateful. I'm so glad that Napoleon saved you & your son because you and your son are worth it so please don't ever forget that and I'm sure Napoleon will NEVER let you forget that either LOL
Newfoundlands ARE angels. To know them is to love them. I foster a lot of animals, including free roam rabbits, and my Newfoundland is super gentle with all our fosters, our kids, and everyone we meet at the dog park. He is the best buddy I could ever have! 💕
What a wonderful story of your Newfie's protection, love and bonding with you. They are indeed such gentle giants. Thanks for sharing. Many blessings to you and yours.
This story really touched me, we really need companion animals, they do so much for us.
Napoleon was yours and your son's protector. He knew you were fragile and acted accordingly. Bless his beautiful ❤️ and your's too for telling your truth.👏🏾👏🏾💐💐🐾🐾
I suffer from anxiety whenever I start spiralling my English bulldog is right there helping me through it. Dogs are amazing and we are lucky to have them in our lives.
What a beautiful dog and a beautiful story!
He is such a sweetheart. I can tell that you give him lots of love and vice versa… Hope you always treasure and love him.
Thank you for sharing about your pregnancy and depression, too many women hide their feelings and we need more conversations of the expectations and intentions of pregnancy. Your Newf is an amazing part of your family! I love this breed!!!
Beautiful !! I hear you sweetie. Sometimes depression doesn't want to let go of us. Your 4 legged angel is a gift. Everything will be ok. You are so lucky to have both of your babies !! Sending you love 😘❤
I’m glad this big boy knew what his human mom needed ❤️🥺🙏🏻
What an amazing wonderful gorgeous boy!
What an uplifting & heartwarming story. Animals are one of God's marvelous ideas - useful, helpful, loyal, loving companions. So grateful for Napoleon's loyalty & care for you & your sweet son.
How blessed you are to be loved & protected by such a big, beautiful & cuddly boy.
This story reminds me of the movie A Dog's Purpose. (I highly recommend it!) We generally think we take care of our dogs. But, at the same time, THEY are clearly devoted to and taking care of US.
My dog once saved my life too. Was feeling low and depressed and she would just sit or lie down next to me. I also remember the first time she did that and I just cried and cried. Dogs are absolutely incredible
Napoleon was raised in a "loving" family and it shows in such rewarding and loyal ways. Now, it's Napoleon's turn to look after the woman and her baby and he went above and beyond! Personally, Napoleon would be a great emotional relief dog to any pregnant woman. 👏👍🥰🐕🐾
Ure really blessed maam, an angel with paws send to guard u. Depression in pregnancy is no laughing matter.
This is so sweet. It brought tears to my eyes.
I'm so touched by your story! I cried a little 💦
My dog saved me too....she just never left my side when I was deeply depressed. Plus she got me out walking everyday. Feeling much better now ☺️
And I hope you are too 👍❤️
I hope you continue to feel better about yourself.
Animals are amazing
Dogs are truly angels on earth. Thanks for sharing this story. It’s needed.
What a great story. You have a wonderful family. Glad you’re doing better. Stay strong.
This story bought tears to my eyes, Napoleon is a TRUE hero, he knew that his human was feeling extremely down and decided that they needed comforting and protection, thus making that their human didn't go over the edge and keeps an eye on them afterwards, simply being there and giving undying love without asking for anything in return, shows that they are a angel at heart!
He is such a loving dog! Angels come in four, BIG, paws too! 🎀🎀🎀
What a beauty.
This is such a strong lady. I had the same experience when Iwas pregnant for my 3rd child. All I ever heard was BS about how I should be "so excited!". My ex was zero help with that as well. Part of why he's my ex. I'm so glad she had someone so close to her!
Not all superheroes walk on 2 legs.
Beautiful story! I love when dogs help people with their mental health. I’m tearing up. I’m glad that you were still able to care for Napoleon through your difficult pregnancy and mental health.!
How stinkin cute. Love big furballs. You rock Napoleon! People thought our bloodhound was a baby deer when she got loose. 😂
😆
I love ur dog. He's awesome. I love how he's by ur side every step of the way. I love the bond he has w ur son. I hope u are getting her for ur depression. God bless ur whole family.🙏
That's not a bear, that's a teddy bear
These are the most beautiful dogs! I first saw 5 in a park. They belonged to a wonderful couple. I really wanted my granddaughter, who was maybe 3, to see them but was unsure about their reactions to children. After talking to the owners about my anxiety, they reassured me and helped my little one get to know their "family!" The dogs were great with her, so patient and even careful with her. It was as though they knew she was just a little one. I still have wonderful memories of when both of us first met the Newfies!😃
A sweet fluffy babyyy!
Truly an angel
Such a lovely Dog. So adorable 💖💖💖
They deserve the best too 💖💖💖
life is beautiful, nothing to stress about, beautiful family with a beautiful dog, amazing
God bless you , your family, and your dogs !!!
We have friends who love hanging out at the river and their Newfie was always trying to save them when they would get in the water. He was a really great dog.
This is Amazing ❤️❤️
This video shows the Greatest relationship of Dogs and Humans ❤️❤️
Animals are the biggest gift and protectors
Big dogs are normally very kind and loving. Less unsecure and tearful...like little onces
Yeah. I know this because I grew up with bullmastiffs so I’m used to gentle giants.
I have a miniature dachshund whose dumb as rocks and chill as hell and just the absolute sweetest boy and I dont know how I got a small dog with a big dog sense of chill.
Beautiful dog. I am happy you had him there for you especially at a time when you needed him the most. So happy for you!
I’ve always been in love with dogs but as I get older and see how humanity keeps repeating the same sad mistakes from hatred, jealousy and political agressions, I really start to believe that dogs are the BEST gift, if not angels, from the beyond to us.
That snore! 💤 (0:17)
It sounded like a gigantic cat’s purr 🤣😆
Newfies are wonderful. There is a Landseer Newfie in my neighborhood. Beautiful.
Not only did you save him he saved you. You were put together for a reason what a sweet baby he is.
Not all giant dogs are angry and harmful.
Most of giant dogs are Friendly and Caring. 😎👍
What a heartwarming story. I have experienced how animals can feel your inner emotional state and react accordingly. It's so amazing to see how in touch they are with you
