A few years ago, after having lots of Newfs over the years, we decided we would like to breed. We obtained a female and male that were absolutely gorgeous from two different breeders but the female was unable to breed and we had her fixed. Now comes the problem. We did not want to neuter this...

Mac is afraid to go into the pool. He just won't go in but you can tell he wants to. If we come near him by the pool he runs in afraid that we will make him go in. We took him to a lake and he ran right into it but was afraid to swim so would only go so far in before he'd turn back. Here is a...

Harley came to us through Newf rescue at 2. He walked in, marked the curtains and couch and went in to the kitchen to eat directly out of a pot on the stove. He needed some direction and obedience and a lot of love. He got all of that and more. He would have been 11 this month but we had to...

My daughter just moved home with Kodi from an abusive relationship. Since she lived out of state I had no idea she and the dog were being abused. I'm glad they are here but Kodi has major issues. He has growled at everyone but me (4 other adults) and attacks Mac, our 8 month old Newf. When...

Harley is 10 and started getting cranky with the other Newfs. At first he would snap when they walked by too close but yesterday he went after Mac, our 8 month old boy. Later he way lying in the hallway and saw Mac in the kitchen and started to growl and get up to come after him. I have to...

Okay, I told you Mac was coming back in December and finally getting around to sharing some pics. At 5 months now he is about 80 pounds but definitely not fat. He is sooo much fun, smart - too smart, and learns very quickly. Zoe had pretty big fear issues outside that I talked about in...

Are there good videos out there on training for water and cart? I'm such a visual learner and would love to find some. Thanks, Kim

I mentioned this in the welcome page but thought I should move it here. Zoe came from a breeder last year full of life (hence the name). She was a confident, intelligent, loving puppy and then was badly frightened by a ladder in the yard during her fear imprint stage. I am trying to help her...

Hi. I have been reading the threads and thought it only right that I introduce myself rather than lurking about in the background. We have soon to be three Newfs. Harley is 9 1/2, Zoe is 15 months and Mac is coming on the 29th and will be 8 weeks. Our Sheba passed last year at 9 1/2 and we...
