Hi, everyone! We haven't been on NewfNet for a while, but think of all of you often and try to check in when we can. We're getting ready to move from Colorado to Bethlehem, Pennsylvania! Anyone in the area? Bo will be looking for some play buddies in August :groovy:

We haven't been on NN in a while, but when Bo grew this fluffy white beard this morning, I knew exactly who would appreciate a Newfie Santa Claus!

I just noticed tonight that when Bo stands still, he can only remain still for about 5 seconds, then his right leg sort of bends slightly at the elbow and twitches. It almost looks like he is hiccuping, but he's not making a sound. His right elbow has arthritis from elbow dysplasia, so it could...

Bo and his Bernese Mountain Dog friend, Gatsby (5 months old), got together for a playdate today. I captured a pair of pretty silly faces:

Submit photos of tongues! Happy tongues, sad tongues, proud tongues, wobbly tongues, and drooly tongues. Calling all tongues! Say ahhhhhhhh!

Bo earned his CGC today :)

Our friends got married in Livingston, Montana over Labor Day weekend. We drove up from Colorado with the Bo dog: Bo discovered THIS little gem while on a hike. He wandered off the side of the trail and returned with a deer leg in his mouth. Thank goodness he's pretty solid with the "drop...

While grooming Bo tonight, we found a weird little wart-type bump on the outside of his back, right foot. It's not painful to the touch. About the size of a pea. A little bit more pink than skin-colored, and almost looks like it might flake off. Any idea what this might be? Here are some...

Bo has been acting a little strange lately. For the past month he has been becoming suddenly afraid of things on our normal walking routes about 75% of the time. Sometimes it's obvious what makes him afraid (hoses/ rope/ certain cars), but other times it seems like a smell will set him off and...

Headed into the Wyoming mountains last weekend and got these great pictures of the Bo dog: Yes, the water in the picture below is basically just melted snow from that big glacier in the back of the image. Bo was in dog-heaven! It was absolutely gorgeous! Bo also practiced pulling in my...

We attended a grooming seminar yesterday where Bo got his first big boy haircut, so in honor of Bo's fresh look AND the Bad Hair Day photo challenge (submit! Judging on Wednesday! Shameless plug!) I present to you a montage of Bo on the grooming table. (photo credit: Megan Morrison)...

Your challenge, if you choose to accept it, is to find me a portable crate for Bo to use during water training. We need something pretty inexpensive and easy to fold up and put in the car. Any suggestions? What size should we look for? 48"? 54"? Thanks for the help. He doesn't use a crate...

Photo Challenge 238: Bad Hair Day ...or good hair day, depending on how you look at it. Show me your best floof, poof, frizz, and flyaways. Your botched ear trims and shaggy coats. Your afros, mohawks, and bowl cuts. All people and animals are welcome to participate! Judging will be the...

This has probably been discussed in another thread, but I'm not sure what search terms to use. Can someone point me in the right direction? We are doing water work with Bo, not super seriously, but we do think he could earn his WD with the right instruction and practice. He is great at bumper...

I posted in the "Open Discussion" forum about the forest fire that's going on near us right now. It's heading down toward the reservoir where we take Bo swimming (in fact, the only place that's clean enough to let him swim in). Since he's been having some problems with his elbows, he's on a...

There's an enormous fire about 15 miles west of our house in Fort Collins, Colorado. As of this morning, it was said to have burned 37,000 acres and to be 0% contained. Fortunately, last I heard, only one person was reported missing, although a dozen homes have already been lost. The air is full...

Bo had surgery for elbow dysplasia back in December. Around the six week check-up point, the vet noted some fluid over his right elbow. We kept an eye on it, and it seemed to go away. A couple weeks ago, Bo had a slide down a river bank after a case of the zoomies. We think he hurt his elbow...

Bo joined his mama and papa on a road trip through Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, then home to Colorado. The link for the public Facebook albums is...

...that my butt won't always be this much taller than my front-end! Anyone have photos of their Newfs in an awkward see-saw stage? Any photos of the same dog all "leveled" out later, even if the see-sawing began again soon after? Bo is almost 16 months. He really, really, really hopes his...
