The Federation Cynologique Internationale (FCI) recognized the Landseer as a distinct breed in 1960. In countries not affiliated with the FCI, such as Canada, the U.S. and the UK, the white and black Newfoundland is still referred to as a Landseer (descriptive); everywhere else, it is a white and black Newfoundland. Between 1945 and 1960 the Landseer Continental Type was bred as a part of the Newfoundland Clubs in Europe. As the dogs had many differences to the Newfoundland and the popularity of the Landseer ECT grew, the breed was recognized as a separate breed.

Genetic Test Ratings for Specific Breeds
Some, moderate or strong evidence from available research. The test may be meaningful or recommended for this breed.
Unknown, not evaluated, or no evidence for the use of this test in this breed.
All current available evidence has been reviewed, but relevance is inconclusive, and/or the clinical form of the disease has never been seen in this breed.
All current evidence indicates that the test is not meaningful or recommended in this breed.
Ratings for the tests available for ALL DOGS are similar to those for individual breeds, but reflect the general level of relevance across all dogs.Breed Relevance Rating : The HGTD database includes a simplified rating, indicating the level of available evidence supporting the use of a specific genetic test for each breed/type. The relevance rating is determined based on various evidence sources, including peer-reviewed research papers, recommendations from the original researchers/test developers, and input from additional experts including veterinary specialists and breed experts.
It is important when considering the ratings to understand that this indicates how much we currently know or do not know about a specific test for a specific breed. This does not necessarily indicate how “good”, or “bad” a test is. It also does not indicate the wider clinical importance of the disease or condition. Genetic tests should be used as tools within the Big Picture of health for any breed.
