Chloe the Newfoundland has mastered an impressive range of complex and unusual jobs. She can load the washing machine, transfer items to the tumble dryer and take them out and carefully put them in the basket. She learnt how to help in the kitchen fetching her own food and the potatoes for dinner. She can even turn the vacuum on and off.
Hazel Carter specialises in dog & cat pet behaviour and training and her own dog, Chloe is just a small example of her achievements over the years. Meet one of Britain's most helpful dogs, Chloe the Newfoundland.
The size of a bear. As gentle as a lamb. Thank you for sharing this darling video with us. It made my heart flutter. :)
You have summed up Chloe so well. She is very gentle with everyone she meets. I am glad you enjoyed her videoHazel
Chloethenewfoundland Sending love and best wishes to you and Chole.
This gem of a video is ideal to watch after a hectic and emotionally draining day.
Nothing like the love you receive from your companion. The Newfoundland breed is no exception. Never had one for myself but have met a few. Darlings indeed they are.
Chole looks soooo cuddly! :)
@Silver54Ful same love that dog
@@Chloethenewfoundland Chloe looks like a big cute bear I think I am getting one and naming it bear lol hugs from me and pets
Newfoundland are like Hagrid. BIg but gentle
Yur ah wizard, Hairy 🐶
That's the best comparison i have ever heard. Definitely Hagrid
I have trained my [buddy] through structure with limits and always with reward never punishment. Dogs are willing to please even the worst of us humans-a testament to what a special gift to mankind they truly are. Thank you for sharing this video.
Many thanks Austin,
I wonder what breed your Buddy is? Like Buddy Chloe is always trained with positive rewards, treats and lots of praise. she loves to help.
Best wishes hazel
My buddy is mixed-breed of German Shepherd and Chow bought from a now closed in-mall pet shop. I didn't realize it at the time but those type places aren't the best for a dog to be held and sold. Anyway, yours is definitely one beautiful dog and I can't say enough about your gentle patience as demonstrated in the video. Thank you again.
Hello Austin, Only just seen your reply, What an unusual dog you have. You are quite right. You have to be very careful when buying a dog. Chloe came from a very caring responsible breeder. She was reared in the house and came from health tested stock with excellent temperament. I had her at eight weeks old.
Hazel
Many thanks Lesley Anne, glad you enjoyed my book. Chloe is following in Connie's paw prints. The video only shows a few of her talents. She has learnt over fifty different tasks and commands. She is quite versatile, carefully carrying eggs, pulling up weeds or finding my reading glasses. She loves her work as she is rewarded with lots of fuss and tasty treats. She's my best friend, but does slobber a lot.
Hazel Carter
Awww sweet
A working dog is a happy dog!
Hello Mathew. That is certainly right. Work keeps them occupied busy and happy. Chloe loves to work and helps me all day, in the house, garden and on walks. I find Newfoundland's intelligent, biddable and very versatile. Chloe can do anything from carrying a heavy load to carefully bringing me a basket of eggs!

It is important to understand how dogs think. Chloe and I understand each other very well. She does many things with out any commands at all.Hazel
@@Chloethenewfoundland omg awwwww so cute I am really going to ask if I can get one wow
I am in second grade, I am Italian and in my English book there is this fantastic story that fascinated me and I came to this video. I loved it.
Anch'io bro!!!! Classmates 2, no?
I saw a Newfoundland dog for the first time recently in a shopping center and he was a show stopper! Beautiful dogs they are.
I hope you enjoyed seeing Chloe's video. They are lovely dogs if kept in show condition but they are a lot of work keeping them clean and sweet smelling.
Hazel
Have just been looking at an Newfoundland dog book. There is very old photo of a team of 7 Newfoundland's hauling a massive load of timber in Yukon.
Hazel
Met this lovely lady today at hurt green caravan shop. She had a delightful springer spaniel called Jerry in the back of her friends car . Just wanted to say I watched your video and we loved Chloe at work. Kind regards Michele Bryant Hastings
So sorry I have not replied earlier. We often go to the caravan shop. Chloe loves to go on caravan holidays and keeps busy taking the rubbish to the bin and carrying her water bottle to the tap.Hazel
I have a Newfoundland mix that I rescued a few years ago. I have balance and drop foot disability, and without training, he's helped me so much. When we would go hiking and go down a steep hill, he'll get in front of me and step sideways down so I can lean against him the whole way down the hill. He's so gentle with everyone and adores children. Love my boy :) definitely will be getting another Newfoundland when the time is right.
Hello Seraphina, I wonder where you live? your message was very interesting. He sounds wonderful I also use Chloe to help me up and down hills as I have some medical problems. She knows the command "pull me up" and I can hang on to her, even her tail and she pulls me up. I use her to help me down steep slopes by telling her to sit and stay then I hang on to her lead which is attached. She sits like a rock however hard I pull, till I'm down safely.
Hazel and Chloe
Hello Hazel and Chloe,
I live in Minnesota. Koda (or Cubbie Bear as I like to call him) has been such a wonderful joy to have in the family. We just celebrated our 8 year anniversary with him on Saturday :) I can tell that arthritis is setting in though, so we don't go on long hikes anymore.
That is fantastic what you've been able to teach Chloe! I think Koda picked up on it partly because when I got him, I hadn't had the farm accident yet, so we were able to get a strong bond prior to my accident. My dad is a fall risk, if Koda senses that something isn't right, he'll pull my dad away from the stairs so he won't fall :) Newfoundlands are such a wonderful breed!
Seraphina and Koda
Hello Seraphina, how nice to hear from you again. I love the name Koda and Cubbie Bear. I'm sorry he now has arthritis. he sounds greatly loved. Hope he has a lovely birthday. You might like to read my book A Dog in a Million about my last Newfoundland Connie who helped me so much when I had serious medical problems. She started helping me when only a puppy.
All the best from hazel and Chloe
That's so amazingly sweet. Zoey is my 3 year old Newfoundland. I suppose she's not the most gentle because I originally was training her to do water rescue before I was injured, so she's used to being a little bit "rough" with people.
I barely had to work with her though, I'm constantly in awe of her intelligence. I open the front door and she runs out to get the mail from the mailman, she pushes doors shut for me, she's just a pleasure to live with. I'm sure you feel the same way about Chloe!
Hello Mr Besterman, yes Chloe is huge, but as you can see is a sweet gentle giant. She has had a busy day helping with the shopping and carrying it indoors.
Best wishes from Hazel and Chloe
Strangely enough Chloe does not slobber on the clothes, but I only let her help with suitable items. yes they are a lot of work and need very thorough bathing and grooming especially when they are moulting. Chloe is so sweet it is worth all the effort.
Hazel
Yes they are lovely and very cuddly when clean and dry. Chloe likes to go into the local town where people make a fuss of her. She is very gentle with anyone in a wheel chair or little children who love to feel her soft fur. they are a lot of work and do need training well as they are very big and strong. best wishes Hazel and Chloe
Makes me smile as well and I always laugh when Chloe turns the vacuum on! :D
The only dog not completely freaked out by a vacuum
I am so pleased you enjoyed seeing Chloe. She loves to help me in the house and garden and enjoys all the attention, treats and big cuddles.
Hazel
Chloe is unusually big for a girl and I am unusually small. Usually she is very gentle and never pulls on the lead, but the unexpected does happen and I fall over! Hazel
All the training makes us very close, she understands so much.
Hazel
You have an Brilliant dog,I love newfoundland. I also had an golden Lab but i lost him on 25 feb 2013 because of cancer... Dogs are like our babies.... You are Very Lucky.. god bless u and your newfoundland with healthy life :-) Take care
Hello Sumitha, I lost my last Newfoundland Connie with cancer at only three, just after I had her book published. I was devastated. I trained Chloe to help me in the house after she had two accidents and operation and could not be exercised. She is very special. see her photo on my web site. "Waiting for Father Christmas"
All the best, Hazel
Lovely to hear more about your Zoey, she sounds wonderful. I trained my last newfoundland Connie to help me when I damaged my back and then had another medical problem. She kept me going when I was in great pain. You might like to read all about her in my book, A Dog In a Million by Hazel Carter
newfies are the very best, just unbelievable dogs, soooo intelligent, affectionate, character to die for, they are seriously the number one dog, but not for the the faint hearted....so they drool, they smell if you let it happen, they need constant grooming, but boy what a joy..they are just wonderful
Pretty much, an honest point of view. The drool and smell... yes, it's a severe downside for many people. It's good for them to learn about those kind of things. Another famous example is related to huskies. Many people consider them the most beautiful dogs and etc.. but damn, they are stubborn and dumb, lol There's no perfect dog... even the samoyed who doesn't smell, has a nice character and etc.. He has tons of fur, a small percentage of allergic people can't stand them, etc..
She is a beauty!!
Nice!!!
Well, anyone who would get upset over such a thing is clearly anxiety-riddled, and unable to enjoy the love and beauty that is so clearly evident in your smashing video! Cheers and Peace from Canada
Your an angel - everyone should treat their dogs as you do
I wonder what you will choose, both have very different temperaments. Both are beautiful.
Hazel
Big ol fluffy love bugs
YOU are an AWESOME woman!! What a wonderful blessing you have been to others and to your beautiful dogs!!
I have Great Pyrenees and they are as intelligent and powerful as your Fur Babies>>>>They are WONDERFUL beyond understanding!!
Thank you for sharing! Blessings to you and your Fur Kids!!
Congratulations, Chloe is more house-trained and better behaved than a very large portion of the adult population.
gorgeous and worth all the effort looking after this magnificent dog breed.
You and Chloe must have a strong bond together!!!
me and my boyfriend have been researching dogs for such a long time because we want to get one when we eventually buy our own house together, and as soon as we discovered newfoundlands, our hearts were stolen.
my dog died yesterday and it made me very unhappy but it thought me something aswell treasure the days your dog is alive you never know when the could go...my siberian husky was only 13weeks old...never been so sad in my life
So sorry to hear you lost your puppy,I lost lost my last Newfoundland Connie heroine of my book A dog In a Million, at only three years old with a aggressive cancer. She had helped me so much, I was heart broken and still miss her. Chloe is so sweet and helps me just like Connie did. Hope you are feeling better. All the best, Hazel
Hello Nancy, yes you are quite right, its a lot of work, keeping her clean and sweet smelling. There is extra work when she is moulting. Its all worth it as she is a wonderful companion.
Hazel
Yes, it took 3 years to teach that. All done with treats and encouragement. she can also open and close doors, take off my gloves and go and put them in the drawer and loads more.
Hazel
Many thanks. It is all done through lots of careful training, one easy tiny bit at a time. She is always praised for the attempt. She does far more than the video shows.
Hazel
What a beautiful Newfoundland. So smart and helpful. Loved "A Dog in a Million" about Connie. Thanks you you and Michael for a delightful, heartwarming read.
I really enjoyed seeing your dog Chloe! She's gorgeous and so smart!
Awww that's lovely. Well done on the training! x
Thank you, Yes I have done a lot of training, four years, but it is very rewarding and Chloe enjoys all the attention and treats She does many things without any commands, just knows what I want. She has just picked up my glasses for me that I dropped!
Best wishes,Hazel
I think she is a good teacher because she seems so patient and understanding of her dog.
What a wonderful video. Thank you.
Thank you so much for uploading this, I have read and really enjoyed your book and learned a lot on how to train and live with dogs (waiting to be accepted as a potential Newfie parent). Please do upload more videos of Chloe and other dogs you are working with, it's always inspirational and gratifying to see a well trained and loved dog working with its loving owner.
All the best
Allen
Wonderful video. Such an amazing intelligent dog a loving trustworthy companion. Hats off to you who trained her so well.
So glad you enjoyed seeing Chloe
Hazel
Just Fantastic Hazel. Thank You
Thank god for lovely people like you. So nice to see such a great partnership built on positive reinforcement.
Chloe is beautiful! I enjoyed this very much. I have my Zoey, and I've trained her to help me around the house as well. Not quite "agile" as Chloe with carefully picking things up and setting them down, but Zoey is good for brute force like closing car doors, helping me up the stairs, and things of that nature.
A wonderful story and video. I hope you make more!
Such cuteness. Thank you for sharing
Wow, these dogs are so magnificent and beautiful.
Many thanks. I think she is lovely and she enjoys helping me in the house and garden. Hazel Carter
Your voice so soothing and Chloe is just a darling. Thank you for sharing.
Wonderful story...a welcome addition to my ever growing list of favorite TH-cam videos.
Hello Victor, I'm glad you enjoyed Chloe's video. I am hoping to do another one this summer showing her helping in the garden. She carries tools, puts things in the wheel barrow and even pulls up weeds for me. She loves to work.
All the best, Hazel and Chloe
Hello Victor, Thank you I am glad you enjoyed it. Chloe loves her work and has been busy recently working in the garden. I am hoping to do another video of her helping me outside. She does many things with no commands at all, she just knows what I want.
All the best,
Hazel and Chloe
Yes she is just so sweet
Hazel
Amazing looking dog!
Thank you so much for this, Ms. Carter. I lost my Newfoundland Rafe two years ago from heart problems. He acted as my assistance dog in a number of ways...he knew what was needed, and just did things. I didn't have to train him much. Most importantly, he helped me up off the floor when I fell, and got me safely in and out of the bath. I miss him more than I can ever say. He was my heart. He made me feel safe, and less alone. I can't buy another, but it's good to see them here. Well done!
So glad you enjoy it. Chloe is so sweet and loves to help me if I reward her with lots of treats and fuss.
Hazel
Congratulations Darcy on doing so well in your obedience classes, and teaching her tricks. My previous Newfoundland's have been good at obedience and water work, but sadly because of her earlier injuries her out side work has been limited. She does help fetch and carry tools in the garden and pulls up weeds on command. See more about my dogs on my web site
Hazel Carter
Absolutely gorgeous dog!
She's a special dog, newfoundlands are good dogs like see one in person sometime
Beautiful Newfie. You obviously love each other very much
So pleased Chloe's video cheers you up. She really enjoys her work and the rewards for doing it. I find it relaxing and fun training her too. I think you would enjoy my book about my last Newfoundland A dog In a Million. check my web site for more videos etc. Many thanks for comments, Hazel
Thanks for that I felt rather bad about upsetting people with my English way of saying Newfoundland
Hazel
No big deal, dear. So many do that. Newfs don’t get in a snit over it, usually. Some do but I lived there for most of my ‘’formative” years (Gander & St. John’s). & never met a small-minded Newf, man or beast. You’re a lovely lady owned by a wonderful dog.n
A lovely friend of mine, a NL native, said to me once before I moved to the great isle, “Understand Newfound”. I never mispronounced the name ever since
I have a newfoundland as well, they are so great.
she is amazing!
The only laundry duty my newfoundland does is stealing socks from the basket.
Your home is so beautiful =) Ours is eaten! Haha.
I am sure your Newfoundland could be trained just like Chloe with training, treats and fuss.hazel
Wonderful animal. Gentle giant.
I love this clip very much.
Many thanks for that.
Hazel Carter
I sent our landlord an email addressing the concerns they have with a Newfoundland dog. I included a link to this video and our landlord reconsidered!! I'm sure your video helped with their decision and I can't thank you enough! My first Newfie purchase will be your book 'A Dog in a Million' and hopefully we'll find a good breeder with puppies that look just like Chloe:) Thanks again and God bless!!
A sweetest ,soft,fluffy outwardly and so good-hearted inwardly kind of dogs ,an amazing doggy's being which makes one to want to put one's hands on it and hug it endlessly ,for they are truly endearingly sweet dogs and ,above all, when they are dwelling in a such soul-soothing European setting they become even more lovely and kind beings !
Hello Krassimir,I hope you enjoyed seeing Chloe helping me. have you seen both videos? Chloe has a lovely temperament and is very gentle. She enjoys working in the house or outside. Her lovely coat needs lots of grooming.Hazel and Chloe
+Chloethenewfoundland Yes ,she is a so pretty ,so lovely soul !!! So warm-hearted and so kindly bearing itself sweetest being !
Hello James, I do not advise having two dogs at the same time. They will enjoy each others company and have fun chewing furniture and anything else they fancy. Barking could also be a problem. It would be better to start with one and gradually build up the time he is on his own so he is relaxed when left. You need to start immediately for very short periods, while you are on holiday would be ideal .Some kennels accept dogs while you are working. hazel
Beautiful Chloe
These are very special dogs.
Thank you. Yes it is worth the effort. Because its so hot here at the moment and she has a very thick coat she is panting and drooling a lot! We have lots of shady trees all round our cottage so after an early morning walk she can relax in the shade.
Hazel
Thank you so much for sharing this video. I have a 5-month-old Newfoundland, and I'm training her to be a service dog. She is my first Newfie and I adore her! I think she is going to be on the smaller side. So far she is doing great with everything, except she doesn't want to bring back things that she picks up. I have trained mostly retrievers in the past, so perhaps it just takes Newfoundlands a bit longer. I'm sure she will catch on soon! She is very intelligent. This is an amazing breed and I wish more people would consider them for service dogs.
So sorry I have not answered your message before. I gather your young newfoundland does not bring back a dropped article. Try dropping the article right by your feet and encourage her to give it to you in exchange for a treat. Also practise hold and give with her by your side. Good luck,Hazel
You have the dog trained to turn on a vacuum cleaner. That's impressive!
Such a wonderful girl
That is a magnificent animal.
I see Chloe in my English book today 🐕
Same!
One of these dogs is all of my want, ALL OF IT.
Organically voice regconigtion at its best, better than alexa, google and siri. Love it
Hazel thank you for sharing these tender moments of how close you to friends can be. What a beautiful little video! Do you edit your own videos? Very good work, The dog was amazing! So loving. Greetings from Canada.
Many thanks for your kind comments. No I did not edit my videos. She is very loving and loves a cuddle.hazel
Hello Katie, sorry I have been so long replying. I taught Chloe to close a door by getting her to touch the door with her nose, while I held a treat very close to it. as soon as she touched the door she had the treat. She then leant to push the door and was rewarded each time she did it. At the same time I would say "shut the Door"
Hazel
Yes Newfoundland dogs could be very good with children with disabilities. Their size and strength is useful for supporting, and helping anyone attempting to stand up, or needing a secure handhold. They can untie shoe laces or pull a boat. They would need very careful training for this work with children. They do need a lot of work to keep them clean and sweet smelling .
Hazel Carter
Omg wow your dog is soo sweet omg I am now going to get a Newfoundland dog to train him like that that is awesome
such a sweet video
Hello Elena, I'm glad you enjoyed Chloe's video. She is huge but very gentle. She loves to help indoors and out side. This morning on a walk I dropped my two gloves which she found and gave to me. I hope I can do another video showing more of Chloe's unusual work.
best wishes Hazel and Chloe
my husband is getting me one next month i cant wait
Great dogs 🐕 👍
I'm hoping to one day have a service dog, and the main breed I'm looking at is a Newfoundland. This video just confirms my thought that they would be brilliant for this. Hopefully Dog AID will agree!
Amazing!! 💝💖
That is amazing! My Newfi only seems to like sleeping on the couch all day:-)
Just love the Newfies
I need Chloe to come over to my house to teach my hubby to do the laundry. lol.
Hello Josh, What a suitable name for a Newfoundland. I guess he is a big black dog, I hope you enjoy him.
Best wishes from Hazel and Chloe
Many thanks Allen, glad you found my book interesting and helpful. Hopefully there will be more videos of Chloe. There is a video and write up by Sussex Express March 2012. She has also been on TV. There is more info about Chloe and Connie, heroine of A Dog in a Million on my web site. Any dog could be trained like Chloe given time and encouragement. She often does 20 or more useful things a day. Good luck with your puppy.
Hazel Carter
Your sweet doggie is a pleasure to look at. You have trained her wonderfully and you keep her looking so beautiful too! How often do you bathe and groom her? Lots of love
Hello Dariusz, I wonder where you live? Thank you for your kind comments. They do need a lot of grooming, when moulting they need grooming every day. their coats do collect all the mud, grass, brambles etc. Chloe is bathed every few weeks especially round the back end if it gets smelly.
Hazel
Grande!👍👍👍🐕🐕🐕💗💗💗🐶🐶🐶👏👏👏
So intelligent!!
Great animals.
Many thanks. I hope you enjoyed seeing Chloe. it would be so interesting if viewers would say what country they come from. I wonder if you see many Newfoundland's in Russia.
