My baby girl is now 10 and is having tooth issues I know she's uncomfortable and a green cloud follows her everywhere :-(. She's pretty healthy for 10-year-5 month but I'm scared of the Anesthesia. Anybody have some encouraging words ?? Thanks, Belle's mom

My Belle had dental surgery and now has to be on soft diet for 2 weeks. I need a recommendation for soft food. I was thinking about cooking for her, thinking this would be better for her than most cans???? She is very picky. I am concerned I will never get her back to dry, lol. Any comments...

I need some advice. I have an almost 7 year old girl, Belle. Over the last couple of weeks her breath has become unbearable. I took her to the vet for a check up and they did blood work and urine and all was good. He said it could be her teeth and wants $500 to do her teeth. Her back molars...

I have a 4 1/2 year old girl. She is a fantastic dog, and seems to speak english most of the time. We currently live in Florida and have a pool in our backyard. Now change fantastic dog to maniac. One of our issues is only getting her to go in the pool when we say so, if anyone looks at the...

Well I debated and debated to shave our dog. We were driving from Alaska to Florida in July. I talked to my vet who has had many newfoundlands and looked all over the forum for advice. I found about a 50/50 answer. Well I just want to say we did it. And wow was I glad I did. She may look...

Without trying to get into a "food debate" has anybody heard anything about science diet J/D? It is for joints and ? dysplaisa? It is 17% protein. My vet recommended it b/c she said it has the highest level of omega 3 fatty acids which she said in a proven study help with dysplasia/arthritis...

Once again I am seeking wisdom in those on the NN. We just got back some results from x-rays done on our soon to be 18 month old. First they have not completely ruled out the heart for enlargment. One Doc says yes, one doc says no and we are going for a third opinion. The Second doc seems to...

We have a "wonderful" 17 month old Newfoundland that we constantly brag about how good she is. She is well behaved and has always been great with the kids. We have 4 and 5 year old humans. Well, yesterday our dog was laying down peacefully when my daughter very casually came to snuggle with...

This is our first Newf and she is great! I know Newfs are for the most part a laid back dog but at what point are they being too lazy and one should look further?? I don't want to be paranoid but I am. I left the house to run an errand came back 20 min later and she could not see the door...

Anyone have an opinion on Bull Sticks?? Good or Bad? My dog likes them but I would hate to find out later on that they cause some funky unadvertised something. Thanks, Pam P.S. I think this will be my first offical post with my Belle's picture. :)

I have tried to do some searches on old posts and most of what I have found said people don't let their dog play with other dogs. For the most part my 8 month old is a lazy single house dog. Occasionally we go for a walk in the neighborhood and she get a chance to play with another dog. My...

Not sure if i am spelling it right. I believe it is called the furmenator? It is about $60 for a dog brush. I tried a coupld of strokes with it but hesitate to buy it. Anyone ever try it??
