    We have a new baby.

    It's been just over a year since losing Shiva. Our hearts still ache, but Fritz was lonely (or so the humans keep telling themselves). So yesterday we brought home Finn the landseer pup. After 14 years I still don't know how to post a pic sorry.

    Fritz is lonely

    Fritz is lonely and I'm still heartbroken over the loss of Shiva. I am at a loss of what to do...DH wants to get another dog for Fritz. I don't know if I have the heart for it. Should I look to another breed, I have been looking at Great Danes. Will a newf puppy heal my heartbreak and...

    Shiva

    We said goodbye today. She was just struggling too much and no matter what combination of meds we tried nothing worked. She was completely fine except for those darn back legs.

    Marquette, MI

    There is a possibility of us visiting the Marquette area in August. Is anyone from the area? Or has anyone visited and know of newf friendly lodging. We are not able to use the camper this trip so it is kinda messing up traveling with the dogs. I could leave them with family and they will be...

    Happy Birthday Shiva!

    Shiva turns 9 today. She has spent the whole day with Daddy, setting up the camper for a mountain bike race this weekend. Tonight she will have salmon steak for dinner. Words can't express how much I love this girl. This birthday makes me sad. I feel like it was just last week we brought...

    It's Snowing.......

    And Shiva can barely contain herself. I on the other hand am less than pleased since I have to drive to work at 5am.

    Happy Boofday!

    Shiva turns 8 today. I swear I don't know where time goes. How can she possibly be 8 when it seems like yesterday we brought her home. Those early months were extremely challenging, but we figured it out. I honestly don't know how to go through a day without her.

    Eagle Pack Lg and Giant Breed Adult Formula

    Eagle Pack has just added this to their selections. Do any of the food experts or breeders have an opinion on this. Shiva is still growing, she's 15 months old, so I think the protein is too high. But would it be ok once she gets older. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks, Shannon...

    Time to stop lurking

    I guess after a month of lurking it's time to come out of the closet. I'm Shannon and My husband Mark and I became the proud parents of a female Newfie on December 13. Her name is Shiva (meaning goddess of destruction) and she is just a little over 4 months old. She has been quite a joy and...
