Did anyone go to the Fall Fun day this past weekend for NPD? I was on vacation last week and got home Saturday, but Eloise was at my Mom's so I had to pick her up and didn't have time to get down there. Any pictures?

There's a new show with Christina Applegate as a girl, named Samantha, that has amnesia. But I was just watching and Samantha's best friend on the show has two newfies. At one point they are driving in the car together and the newfies are in the back of the car, licking Samantha's head! lol...

Here are a few pictures of Eloise's first water test. She didn't pass this time, but she did wonderfully and I was so very proud of her! Sorry if the pics are too big. Waiting for the test to start in the rain... Getting ready to start... Time to meet the caller... Pulling in...

We went up yesterday to the Bear Mountain Water Test. Eloise was SOOO close to passing! She got through basic control, which I was so happy about because I wasn't sure if we would, and I think we almost didn't. A train actually passed by in the down stay and blew it's horns!! And Eloise was...

Is anyone going to the test this weekend? And the dinner Saturday night? I'm very nervous, but I figure I can just treat this weekend as a special practice since I signed Eloise up for a lot of tests! lol

Eloise is finally starting to seem a little better. She still has a limp, but she was at the point where she was just hopping on 3 legs and crying out anytime she moved the wrong way. At least now she is putting some weight on her back leg. It's been so hard to see her hurting like this...

I came home at lunchtime today and Eloise was limping pretty badly, I don't know what she did, she was fine yesterday. She's been doing so well with the dysplasia, that you'd never even know she has it, but today I was definitely reminded again. It breaks my heart to see her hurting like this...

I'm sending in my premiums today for the water tests. I have six tests at 3 locations that are within a few hours of me, 4 hours or less. Should I sign up for all 6 tests? Do most people sign up for that many, or do people just do a couple, or 4? It's adding up to a lot of money, but I feel...

This past weekend the Colonial Newfoundland club did a great 2 day water training seminar with Roger and Barbara Frey. It was an awesome training and Eloise and I learned lots! These are the pictures from the two days. Album 1 Album 2

Eloise has been barking like this for the past year or so, but I forget how bad it is in the winter when there are no fireworks and rarely thunder. Unfortunately I live not far from an amusement park that sets off fireworks every night (unless there is a thunderstorm...ugh). So I do have a lot...

I took Eloise to the holistic vet today, the vet gave her a chiropractic adjustment, she said one of her vertebrae were out of place and we went over any other issues she's had in her life. For instance she often itches her front paws, I think because they tend to always be wet. She...

Here are the pics that my friend Ana took while we were up in Canada. Canada Pics

I'm curious, now that Eloise has been diagnosed with severe hip dysplasia, would it be helpful to send her xrays to the OFFA.org site? I know that usually dogs that aren't going to be bred aren't really sent to OFA, but is the goal of OFA to get as many dogs on there as possible, regardless of...

test....

I took Eloise to the vet this morning, because although she is doing much better, she had started limping again yesterday. So they took the xray and was able to get it without having to sedate her, which I was glad about. The doctor said she has moderate to severe displasia. I know how...

I'm about 99% sure she just twisted her leg or something since she's done that a few times before, but she's limping pretty good. She's not putting a lot of weight on it and is just basically looking very bummed. Poor thing. Last time she did this, she was put on Rimadyl for about a week and...

I just read the previous post about if landseers are more active, and people mentioned they noticed if a black newf is landseer recessive they may be more active. I am just wondering if Eloise is landseer recessive? I'm not trying to determine why she's active, she is active, but not...

Yesterday Eloise received a very special rawhide Valentine from her man Keifer! (Newbeenewf & Logan's handsome boy) It has been love at first sight for the two of them since they were puppies! Well I wanted to post the Valentine and a thank you to Kiefer for making Eloise's day so special...

Does anyone else have a newf that just can't deal with dogs either actually fighting, or even just play wrestling? Eloise always has to butt in if dogs are playing, or she'll just bark and growl at them until they stop or until I move her away. Usually she'll just walk between them and bark at...
