    How to get a Newf in to an elevated bathtub?

    When we built the kennel, we put in an elevated bathtub for bathing the dogs (edge of tub is at countertop height) and since most of our beardies were between 40-55lbs, I could just lift them up in to the tub. But, Ozzie the newf is now a little over 11 months old and 106 lbs and his dad is...

    Oz loves swimming and rescuing.

    Ozzie is not quite 7 months old and is already deciding that he wants to do water rescue. He already loves the pool so I got a small life jacket and threw it in the pool. He immediately got in the water and swam out to get it and returned it to the shallow end of the pool. His video can be...

    Water Training Suggestions?

    Apparently Ozzie is going to be a water dog, so now I need to know what I have to do to start training him correctly. Today, in our pool, he would swim out to me, grab my hand and "tow" me to safety...and he's not quite 5 months old yet. You can see pics of him on my facebook page or on...

    Skin Question

    Ozzie is a little over 4 months old and appears to be blowing coat like crazy...but it's hot here so the combination of his age and heat, I'm sure is making even worse (I think there's more coat around the house from one goofie newfie than there was from 8-10 beardies in the house at one...

    Crate Flooring

    We purchased a new wire crate for Oz as he was outgrowing the 400 size crate we had, so we got one big enough for when he's full grown (I hope!). It is 49"x29"x32" but I don't like him laying on the pan, particularly if he has to pee and can't wait. In the 400 crate, and in our old wire...

    Oz the Water Puppy

    A couple of days ago, I spent the morning cleaning the pool filters and getting the pool ready for use. It's later than normal but we had a mild spring and the water is not as warm as it usually is in the middle of May. When I finished, I decided it was my turn to relax. I went out to the...

    Oz got tired during a long walk

    Well..we made it! We went to Overton Park in Memphis for the 2 Million Dog walk to help find a cure for K9 and human cancer. Michele took Hayley (her Cavalier) and I took Oz and we walked the complete 2 miles. I am so proud of Michele because this is the farthest that Michele has walked...

    Ozzie and Hayley

    Ozzie has not figured out that a 200 size crate is perfect for a Cavalier...not so perfect for a Cavalier AND A NEWFIE PUPPY!! http://pets.webshots.com/photo/2411717940069874523ztMGQU

    Ozzie Doesn't Like the Heat

    Oz has already decided, at 9 weeks of age, that he doesn't like the heat but apparently thunderstorms don't bother him! Being a warmer spring than usual, the temperatures in North MS have been around the mid 80's so just getting Oz to go outside in the middle of the day has been a struggle...

    Puppy Cage Space

    We will be picking up our 8 week old puppy next week and I am trying to figure out how much space we need in a cage. We have a 24x36 cage and I have put a divider in it so he doesn't have "too" much space but how much space would be too much? I am giving him about 60% of the space..what do you...

    Newfie Newby

    After 20+ years of showing Bearded Collies and Cocker Spaniels, we retired in 2005. Now that most of our beardies are gone due to old age, we decided to get ourselves a Newfie...a breed I fell in love with in the mid 80's at a dog show. So, in 2 weeks we will be picking up our brown boy and we...
