Hi everyone Made it down to Newf Nationals in April. Wasn't sure if I'd get to go until the last minute as my husband's grandmother had just passed away. I was truly bummed I didn't get to meet some of the people I know made it there (Angela, Cissy, Jeannie, Annie). I really spend so...

Hi everyone I've decided to sell Herb's redwood/aluminum cart my husband built. If you or anyone you know is interested, here is the item # for it on ebay: 4354980298 For the life of me I couldn't figure out how to post the whole address here without it showing just the seller's page, so...

Words can't describe how exciting it was to watch the WRDX (Water Rescue Dog Excellent) test. After every exercise, applause erupted as the newfs enthusiastically performed their tasks. Exercise #5 tripped up three of the 4 dogs entered (rescue of multiple victims). They all went for the...

This Saturday and Sunday is Pacific Northwest Newfoundland Club's 2 day water test. We are also holding the WRDX on Sunday which I am excited for. If you have been to a water or draft test, you realize there is quite a bit of organization that goes into it. Glad we're winding down (I only...

Just had to take Herb and Fozzy for a walk on the dike. They got to play in the water when we were done so a great walk was had by all! The pup Fozzy will be 7 months on the 12th.

Took these 2 photos last August during our water test. They are of 18 month old Cosi doing her boat jumping exercises in the senior division. Cosi is a very enthusiastic newf with lots of energy which is evident in the photos. In the second photo, the judge ruled that Cosi hit the water...

After a long walk on the dike along the river, actually got a still shot of Fozzy resting. Herb is a pro at that however :rolleyes:

Hi everyone - It's been a long time since I've been here - the forum moved and I couldn't figure out how to log back in, and didn't have the patience! Took some time this morning and figured it out. Yippee! Anyway, this pic is of my 3 1/2 year old Herb and his (then 3 month now 5 month) old...

This was taken Easter weekend at the Healthy Children's Fair in Portland, OR. MANY kids with an endless line for rides. We had 6 dogs taking turns for FOUR hours! This was the "dog pull" part of the fair. Herb and his buddy Ben taking a well-deserved rest afterward, and NO, Ben doesn't...

from our head security officer at the hospital. He loves this picture and keeps it in his jacket always. Made me promise to give it back!

Took this on the river that runs through our town. As puppies can be uncoordinated at times, poor Herb did a header as you notice only his head, chest and feet are wet. After some consoling, he posed nicely for a quick picture.

This boat is perfect for a newf. The front has a big platform and Herb does a great job of navigating.

Took this picture last Saturday. We live at the beginning of the beautiful Columbia River Gorge. In the distance is the Vista House (the little dot on the cliff) to the left and below Mount Hood. You can read more about the Vista House at www.vistahouse.com. We take this walk often.

This was taken late last spring on a walk in a large park near our home.

I'm sure the groomers out there will gasp at this one! We are out on the boat nearly all summer long, and Herb enjoys every minute of it. I love how their hair crinkles when wet.
