Thank you for the good wishes. We have Lap of Love coming Monday afternoon to assess and we will decide then if she is to transition. The coughing is worse and she is unable to stand. I am heavily conflicted. She is still eating some and will drink a lot of water. She has meds for nighttime to...

It's been many years since I last visited this forum but wanted to share Sadie's story and present condition here where I know many will identify with. In 2010 my wife lost our second baby so we gave up on the idea of having our own children. What would happen afterward was not expected. We had...

I have read a lot of posts about health challenges with our fury newfs. There were many times I kicked myself for finding Saide at a pet store but I must say we have not had any health problems. When she was 2 months old we were concerned about her joints growing to rapidly but that turned out...

How could such a beautiful day, walking Sadie, lead to a fracture? It's hard enough starting a new business in today's ecomonmy while watching a three and a half month old baby girl grow so quickly, let alone two other boys, one of whih is 18 today and an always energetic and loving newfie...

So what do you make your children do on their last day of Christmas break? I make mine jump up and down, make faces and pretend there are things there that aren't. What a good Dad I am. LOL Enjoy!

Here is a small teaser from a chiller I am working on with my son Matthew. We will shoot more tomorrow. Sadie will be in it too! Will she be the hero? Maybe... That do you think? TCguqoCOBT4

This is Rosa's Mom from Peru. She came out for a few weeks to help. She has been awesome and supportive beyond words.

Background story: What was to be a normal deliver turned into a nightmare of epic proportions. We spent 4 days in the hospital trying to induce before having the baby. We finally came home after day 7. Unfortunately, Rosa had to have a C Section. Isabella was never in danger. Rosa, on the other...

in October her diet has been a challenge. She did not want to eat her normal food. We immediately contacted the vet who suggested we put her on a bland can food diet for 10 days, which we did. Her stool was perfect and she loved it. Since then we have put her on California Natural's Lamb and...

How long should I wait after a heat to have Sadie spayed? I was hoping we could beat the first heat but that's ok. I also wanted to wait one year but may have to do this sooner. Is there an amount of time after the first heat? Thanks.
