The Newfoundland Pony developed from horses brought by settlers from the British Isles. Harsh winters and sparse forage shaped generations. It has a dense mane, strong hooves and stocky build.
It transported timber, peat and seaweed and worked on farms. Twentieth-century population decline prompted conservation efforts; it was recognised as a provincial heritage breed.
