http://www.kare11.com/news/news_article.aspx?storyid=882810 ROSEVILLE, Minn. -- A Roseville dog has once again proven dogs just may have a sixth sense, after all. According to his owners and his neighbors, Murphy, a 2-and-a-half-year-old Newfoundland, helped save his 95-year-old neighbor on...

Some have probably seen this but I had to post anyways, very fitting of alot of our households, I assume. Rules for pets: The dishes with the paw print are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Please note, placing...

I seen pics on NN of Newfies in sprinklers....None of the Newfies I live with or associate with will tolerate a sprinkler or being sprayed by a hose. They will swim in pools, ponds, lakes and rivers but I will get the "I know where you sleep" look if I grab the hose....what gives? (Mind...

I tried contacting Susan Wagner via email yesterday regarding a newf mix that I have taken in and have not received a response as of yet. Does anyone know of a better way to reach her?

I used Frontline on all of the dogs 2 weeks ago and noticed last night a huge scabby area on back of my Koda's neck where the Frontline was applied. I checked the rest of her body and found nothing. I called our Vet and he had never heard/seen anything like this from Frontline but assumed it...

I have 4 dogs...2 are Newfies, the other 2 are Lab mixes. I have one over weight Lab(Shelby) and 1 underweight Newfie (Koda). My underweight doesnt have any interest in eating so if I buy the premium dog food the Labs eat it and believe me theoy do not need anymore weight.

I am a bit timid to post as my last was removed but...here goes...ad on Craigslist http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ank/for/1339084263.html

We live in a rural area and have alot of iron in our well water. The dogs ge the filtered softened water for drinking but I am wondering about swimming? We bought a 1000 gallon watering troft for the dogs to swim and hooked up an inline filter to our well water, we filled the troft about 1/4...

I have to laugh, I've noticed that 90 percent of us Newf lovers have hard floors (tile, linoleum, wood, etc), coincidence? I don't think so! Don't you love how all their extra hair that the dogs don't want anymore ends up along the edge of the wall?! That just doesn't happen with carpet.

Does anyone have a good Ear Infection remedy that does not involve Antibiotics? Short story long....My boy Newf has an allergy to Fleas, he is on Frontline but Frontline does not repel....so any flea that bites sends him into a Fury with ear infections (I finally got the hot spots under...

I recently bought 1/2 cow and it was extremely tough. We turned most of the muscle meat into Jerky and Canned some of it. What was left was alot of fat and grizzle (also alot of good meat). I cooked this up the other day and froze it thinking I could feed it to my finicky newfs who are under...
