A standard shot is 1.5 ounces of liquid. However, in many alcoholic mixed drinks, 1.25 ounces of hard liquor is considered a shot. A shot of espresso is often considered to be 1 ounce.
Newfoundland (dog) The Newfoundland dog is a large working dog. They can be either black, brown, or white-and-black (called Landseer). However, in Canada, the country of their origin, the only correct colours are either black or Landseer. They were originally bred and used as a working dog for fishermen in the Dominion of Newfoundland (which is now part of Canada).
GENERAL. 1  The Landseer is often mistaken as a colour variant of Newfoundland Dog but it has been recognised as a separate breed by FCI. It is a large dog that is named after a famous British painter, Sir Edwin Henry Landseer who created a painting (titled : A Distinguished member of Humane society) in 1838 which shows this dog saving a man from drowning.
