A massive, lion-like breed created in the German city of Leonberg by crossing Saint Bernards, Newfoundlands, and Great Pyrenees, the Leonberger was originally bred as a companion worthy of royalty. They are gentle, playful, and surprisingly agile for their size, with a calm confidence and a love of water that makes them versatile family dogs and therapy animals.
