Kermit the Newf And Fozzie Bear

Another major activity of mine is professional acting. I have acted in more than a twodozen TV commercials, numerous print ads and as a celebrity at corporate meetings. I even appear in a photo book by world famous photographer Bruce Weber that he did for Dedon  Furniture, entitled Coming Home. I have also done an editorial photo shoot for Terra Nova Style which is an Italian fashion line. By the way, Newfoundlands in Italy are called Terra Nova, which translates roughly as New Land. In a future column I’ll give links to my commercials on YouTube.

      I have a few hobbies too. One of them is pulling my cart. Newfoundland Dogs were used by fisherman in Newfoundland, Canada to haul purse seine nets and to rescue anything or anyone that fell overboard. In addition, they would pull a cart with the day’s catch to market and haul the fisherman’s equipment to and from the docks. I pull my cart to the grocery store with Bonnie and walk up and down the isles with her and guide her home with all the packages.
