Pete Lewin Newfoundlands is a remarkable charity that gives people the unique opportunity to swim with Newfoundland dogs. Pete fell in love with Newfoundlands when he learnt about their incredible abilities as water rescue dogs and their heroism. While working with them as water rescue dogs, he discovered the potential of his Newfoundlands to support people with their emotional and mental well being. He now takes all sorts of people swimming with his Newfoundlands, working particularly with people from the armed forces and emergency services, who have experienced trauma. The combination of time in the water with the dogs and swimming outdoors in the peace and beauty of the lake, are hugely beneficial. Pete shares his love for his dogs, the story of Pete Lewin Newfoundlands and something of his own experiences of working for many years as a paramedic.
