Archie the therapy newf was on the Today Show this morning. They did a beautiful job with the story, and what a great way to showcase our wonderful newfies!!! We are particularly interested in Archie, because he and Ellie are (we think), half-brother and sister!! Their dad is Razmatazz...

I received a mailing yesterday from the AKC offering their annual doggie Christmas cards and as I was flipping through the samples of cards, I was so surprised to find an adorable one with a Newf puppy on it! Of course there were lots of with Goldens and labs (which I also loved, owning a...

Hi All - I know I just primarily lurk on this board, but had to let you all know that Ellie is getting spayed today and ask for thoughts and prayers. Don't know why, but I'm really nervous and while I'm fully confident with our vet, I still won't feel better till after it's over! She's our...

We are currently feeding Ellie Canidae according to the "puppy" amount recommendation on the back of the bag, but she will be 6 months this Friday, and the bag suggests that the total amount be dropped back to the adult feeding level at 6 months. Should I continue feeding the "puppy" amount for...

Here are some recent pictures of Ellie - I promised Lore I would post some since we recently found out that Ellie and Chianti are sisters! They turned 5 months yesterday. Lore - please post more of Chianti, soon! The pictures below at the lake were Scout and Ellie's first swim (ever) last week...

Hi Everyone, Just got back from attempting to take a "leisurely" walk through the neighborhood this evening with Ellie (5 mos) and Scout (our 2-yr old Golden) and am really getting frustruated! Scout went through basic obedience training but now that we've added Ellie to the mix, he seems to...

A couple weeks ago there was a thread about Canidae bothering some of your dogs' digestive systems and I just wanted an update before we consider switching Ellie (15 wks) and Scout the Golden to Canidae ALS. Any more problems with Canidae? We were initially feeding Ellie Eukanuba Large Breed...

We are into week number 4 with our new puppy, Ellie, almost 14 weeks old, and while out walking with her tonight, I met one of my neighbors (everybody wants to come out and see the Newf puppy!) who trains and shows Portugese Water dogs. She asked me if we were playing "puppy ping-pong" and...

Hi All, We just got our first newf, Ellie, a couple weeks ago (see pics in picture forum) and she's doing great so far with her "older brother", our two-year old Golden Retriever, Scout. However, they LOVE to play, rough, all the time! They don't seem overly aggressive about it - it all seems...

We are so excited to have Ellie - our first Newf! We got her two weeks ago and I'm showing her off to everybody, so thought you'd all enjoy some puppy pics, too. We are amused by her water fixation, so gave her a bowl to splash in on the deck on Monday - it was 84 degrees in Columbus,OH and got...

Hi Newfie people! I am Amy in Ohio and our family just got our first Newf, Ellie, last weekend! She's 11 weeks old now and a sweet, ornery little black furball. She's joining our family of 2 boys, ages 10 and almost 7, me, my husband,and our not-quite-2-year-old Golden Retriever, Scout. Our...
