Has anyone had any experience good or bad with their newf in a wheelchair? We have found that both of Tily's hips have no ball left, her left knee is shot and the right is going. She needs exercise to take off weight, she has trouble getting up and down and cant walk well. When the right knee...

We have noticed for a bit now that JoJo has had a foul smelling back end. To the point that she'd roll on her back in her sleep and stink out a room. I never saw anything and attributed it to her not squating like she used to and ending up with drying urine on her fur. After all she is somehwere...

Tily will be 7 yrs old this coming April. She has been having increasing difficulty in standing up from a lay down position, and shes just not moving well. I have noticed the following things with her 1-her hind feet are very close together when she stands 2-when she moves and any rate of speed...

We reserected the newfy puppy costume that is in my avatar for Keira this year. Heres a picture... My friend Sara is holding her. Here is Katlin in the same costume 3 yrs ago [ 11-10-2006, 11:44 AM: Message edited by: Maggiesmom ]

I snapped this last night of Keira & Tily Right after this she laughed and grabbed Tilys ear and tried to lick her back!

We want to get a good but not break the bank air purifier. With the 3 dogs and a cat we could use one. Does anyone have one they recommend? If so where did you get it and apprx cost. TIA

Ok Katlin still seems to think since she cant have a pony the dogs will fill the gill. The other night she was determined once again to try to ride Tily. She got up on Tily's back right behind her front shoulders (right where you'd sit on a horse) and gripped with her legs and said giddy up...

I havent posted much in awhile but here is a photo of our newest family member Keira... Here she is with her Big Sister who just adores her. Just like when we brought Katlin home the dogs are right there with every squeak and squim. Maggie takes her role as Nanny Newf very seriously...

Last night Katlin was standing next to Tily eyeing her up and down and the next thing we hear is "I'm gonna ride that dog..." we told her if she could mount up on her own go for it. So she walked over and got her little chair and put it next to Tily (who never moved) and got on the chair to...

OK no new newfie pictures but we took Katlin to see Santa today and she wanted to wear her Santa princess outfit.....Here are a couple of pictures. By the way she LOVES Santa and keeps telling everyone that!!

Well we had thanksgiving at my brothers house and shortly after we got there one of his dogs (he has 3) bit Katlin. We were sitting on the couch and the one dog was licking her and she was petting him, the 2nd dog was standing on the other side of me and DH was petting her when off to the right...

Use fabreeze to try to cover the smell of skunk!!! Last night hubby decided to let Maggie & Tily out at 4am...well there was a visitor in the yard outside their fence.....Thankfully it didnt get the girls when it sprayed but everything stunk in the house cuz we had the airconditioners on so when...

I thought I would put this in a new thread since it got started a bit talking about putting your in case of empergency numbers in your cell phone under ICE 1 & ICE 2 in the newfy stuff for sale thread. I had received a few different forwarded emails on doing that recently too so I thought I'd...

OK not dog related (I wasnt brave enough to bring them even though the photographer said she was willing to try to get them with Katlin) But I am SO pleased with these pics. Its the 1st professional pictures we have ever had done with Katlin.. My mom went with us so we got one of all...

Ok we are finding tiny blackish ants in the bathroom. There is no food in there so we arent sure why they chose to be there but we want them gone. Ant traps are out of the question due to poisin with dogs and a toddler. What are other ways to get rid of ants? I dont know if any of this info is...
