Newfoundlands are black, White and black (landseer), brown (not chocolate), gray (not blue). It is possible to produce white/brown; white gray; and cream (not Isabella) but these are disqualifications according to the standard and are only purpose bred by less than reputable sources. A solid color newfoundland may have white on the chin, chest, toes and tip of tail in varying amounts; the piebald pattern is a white dog with colored markings. Landseer refers specifically to the white/black piebald combination.
For the Newfoundlands, you're forgetting the Black, Chocolate, Blue, and Isabella with Irish. As well as Isabella Piebald. C:
