It is perhaps not the ideal day trip for dogs, but that didn't stop this family loading their over-sized Newfoundlands onto their kayaks for a paddle on the water.

And clearly the dogs didn't mind either, as they sit quite happily, dwarfing the family kayaks on the lake in Portland, Oregon.

The hilarious video even captures the dogs howling with delight as they go out onto the open water.

 

Dogs howl with excitement as they are treated to a Kayak trip

The beautiful black pooches – nicknamed Newfies – were caught on film enjoying a paddle boat adventure during a lovely sunny day in Nestucca Bay.

Initially one of the dogs was more hesitant than the other in making itself heard on the water.

But after some encouragement from his owner they then all started to howl in unison.

Thankfully for us the sing-a-long was captured a camera fixed to the boat.

Uploading the cute video on YouTube, Brian Donahoo said: 'Nestucca Bay paddle adventure with Kayak Portland! 'We had a great time floating on the water.

'Of course when we heard the Newfie singing, we had to join in!'

Howl about this!: Trio sing in unison during the boat ride

Nestuccer Bay is part of the National Wildlife Refuge on the coast of north-west Oregon in the United States.

The Kayak Portland company offers free meet-ups for like-minded people - and their dogs - to meet each other.

The area is popular with other adventure sports including mountain biking and hiking.
