Has anyone here had any experience with this type of problem and subsequent surgery? I'm wondering what the success rate is of this surgery/how things looked before and after having it done. Thank you!

Boulder has been itching like a maniac these last few days. I've been combing through his hair, looking for any evidence of his discomfort, but I haven't seen anything. Today, I noticed that on the back of his elbow, there was this really thick white mound of stuff. I took a fine tooth...

Our sweet boy, Boulder, has always been a bit of a 'testy' fella'. When he was young, he would growl around his food. We worked on that with assistance from his breeder and trainer and things around food got better. Lately (and by lately I mean the last few months), he's been growling quite...

I've been a very delinquent Mama. Boulder is 14 months old now. At last, I have a few pictures of him (albeit not the best quality). Oh, and I would like to officially enter him in the tongue contest. He's got a doozy! http://www.fototime.com/inv/E586CF4D653B969 Tara

We had Boulder's 'second opinion' at the holistic vet today. They were not able to see much from the x-rays I got from the other vet because one film was overexposed and the other had something "spilled all over it" making it difficult for this vet to determine if what she was looking at was...

When Boulder was a pup, I was given the general growth guideline of 10 or so pounds/month. When does that change? He's 13 months now and he seems to have slooooooowed right down. Is he done growing?

Our 13 month old Newf, Boulder, has been experiencing pain in his front leg for a few months now. Initially it seemed to be in his rear leg, then it moved into his front right. We thought it was Pano. However, it's been a few months and nothing has improved. He's fine if he's sedentary...

Well, we thought Boulder was in pain because he was developing an infection from being neutered a couple of weeks ago. He was holding up his rear, right leg and not putting it down at all when walking. His vet gave us antibiotics even though I certainly couldn't see anything that looked...

Boulder, now 10 months old and 100 lbs, was neutered last week. He was doing fine until this morning. I woke up to him limping around the house. He is holding up his right, rear leg and acting very lethargic. When our daughter went to pet him our, normally gentle, Boulder snapped and growled...

Here's some long overdue pictures of Boulder. He's seven months old now, and more lovable than ever. (The last three are the most recent, just taken last week.) http://www.fototime.com/inv/C2960F2B74299CD

Is that too early? Boulder is.... how do I say it nicely? Wow, he is really being 'challenging' lately. He's figured out that he has a bit of strength on me. I know he's going through his teenage period, maybe his testoserone is kicking in? He doesn't come when I call him anymore. He uses...

Not the greatest pictures, but he was sleepy and that's the only time I can get down on his level without being slurped up! He will be 6 months on the 23rd. He's a sweet, loving, loyal ball of fur - everything a Newf should be. http://www.fototime.com/inv/E071A64260D7693 Tara

To the person (people) that recommended this harness, There is a special space in Heaven reserved just for you!!! What an absolute miracle! I can't believe how amazing this harness is. I want to be the national spokesperson. When we're out for a walk, I have to keep looking down to check...

Is there one? I swear, Boulder is gifted at giving me 'that look'. Do you know the one I'm talking about? I can play with him all morning, run around in the snow, bring him for a walk etc... but the moment I do something else, he lets out this great sigh, plops down and just stares at me with...

Is there something about a (almost) 6 month old Newf puppy that makes other dogs uncomfortable? I don't get it. In the last week Boulder has met 5 other dogs and ALL 5 snarled and bit him. The last one actually started kicking mud into Boulder's face. Boulder gets so excited to see other...

Is that what you call it? Boulder has developed a bad habit of putting his paw up on us (again and again - he's very persistant) when he wants attention or if he wants MORE attention. It hurts to get one of those nails on the skin and he's scratched us a few times. Any suggestions on how we...

O.k., I wanna' play too! How do I measure how tall Boulder is? Please use s-i-m-p-l-e language and type realllly slowly (if you tell me to measure him from hock to jamoogle, or something like that, I will have no idea as to what you are talking about :D ).

Boulder went to the groomers the other day. Now he has the stinkiest ears. Is it possible that water got into them and stunk them up? He's not rubbing them or bothered by them in anyway, but ewww... usually he smells like sweetness, but I must say that I'm not burying my face into his fur lately.

Is there something that happens when a Newf pup is growing that would cause his eyes to look all droopy one day and then tighter the next? Boulder, now 5 months old, woke up today with these super-duper-droopy-eyes (say that 5 times fast). A lot of the 'haw' (I think that's right) showing...
