The Landseer (Continental-European type) is a dog breed. Many kennel clubs consider the Landseer to be simply a black-and-white variant of the Newfoundland, but the FCI recognizes it as a separate breed.
Miscellaneous
The dog "Nana" in Peter Pan, although often portrayed as a St. Bernard, was intended to be a Landseer. The 2004 movie Finding Neverland featured a Landseer as J. M. Barrie's pet, on which "Nana" was based.
