Every true New Englander or True New England family has a dog....there couldn't be anything more New England. Its man's best friend and therefore the New Englanders best friend. Its a match made in heaven. Dogs also complete the TNE look and picturesque lifestyle. Throwing your dog in the back of the tahoe, driving up to Lake Winnipesaukee or down to Chatham for the weekend..nothing could be more New England. Its how TNE's spot other TNE's. No True New Englander lets their wife buy a dog that can be beat up buy a squirrel, fits in a handbag, or a poodle. White, black, any color. They do not embody everything that it is to be from New England. A good dog will aways compliment Bean boots, a good pair of cords, and a green Barbour. The classic new england dog has to match the classic New England look and be able to maneuver the stone walls, cobblestone and gravel driveways and be able to fend for itself out on the classic New England dogwalking trails. But any asshole with a dog isn't a TNE, there are things to look for that are dead giveaways that you are in the presence of a TNE.
Top 3 TNE Dogs
1. Golden Retriever - The great family dog that love exploring the woods from Massachusetts to Maine.

2. Labrador - Seen on the shores of beaches and at yatch clubs up and down the coast of New England. A classic, seen both with families and with young single men looking for a dog that likes to adventure. Usually have lots of energy and have names that are sailing terms or sometimes just simply "Storm".

3. English Spaniel - A favorite of TNE grandmothers and mothers alike. Whenever I see one it brings me back to my youth going over to Nana's house and playing in the yard while the adults drink rum punches and gin on the rocks.
