I swear I have the loudest newf on the planet! Koko barks all the time. I know she is trying to communicate "I want in, I want out, I'm hungry, pet me, I want to play..." and on and on. I guess what bothers me is that she will sit in front of Scout and continuously bark even when he doesn't...

Puppy kindergarten begins tomorrow and I simply can't wait! Koko will be ahead of the game because she already knows her name and how to sit. Problem is she is a jumper, biter, and a thief! I know I can't compare one dog to another, but I am not sure how to correct her poor behavior. She is...

Here is our newest addition...Koko! She is adjusting nicely and Scout is wonderful with her! I forgot how much work a puppy is! I just remember Scout to be the perfect puppy! Until my hubby pointed out, "remember the holes in the yard, the holes in the clothes, the paws in the water dish and...

Scout is showing signs that something is not right with him. He will not jump up on our bed, he just goes from side to side wanting to come up but can't. He let out a yelp when he went into a down position last night and he is hesitant to go down the steps to go outside.Unfortunately each door...

I picked up the July/August issue of weight watchers magazine and there on p.25 was a beautiful newfoundland with a small child in an add for Blue dog food! I just love when I see them, because it's kind of rare! Megan & Scout

Grrrrrr. I have decided to fine another vet. The front desk staff at the place I go now has never been overly friendly, but I have always liked and trusted the doctors. The first doctor I saw when Scout was a puppy was great, but she left the practice. No explanation or notification until I...

Scout says "Thanks for the new friends and yummy treats!" He LOVES the polar bear and has practically kissed the nose right off!...Also, he couldn't get enough of those wonderful treats. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Megan & Scout

We finally got a hold of the condo and our reservations are confirmed. We will be in unit 203! I am so excited to get the heck out of dodge and down to the shore!! The lady I spoke with sounded excited too and said she can't wait to see a whole herd fo bears. See you all there! Megan & Scout

This morning very early Scout was outside and he was barking his warning bark. When I went out he was jumping and circling the tree...Here he chased a gray cat up into the tree and had him held prisoner up there.(This is one of the many cats my neighbor lets wander all over the...

I thought it would be fun to see what everyone's music preference is... What do you listen to, to motivate, inspire, escape,calm yourself? I'm a country music girl with some 50"s good time oldies thrown in like Chubby Checker and Fats Domino...Also the Grateful Dead every now and then with...

My hubby and I are thinking of driving down with the kids and Scout for the weekend. Is there still room for 4 (well 5) more? I know this is last minute, but is something we can bring/do to contribute? Megan & Scout

Thanks for all of your prayers and well wishes! My vet did a very thorough exam and Scout should start to feel better within a few days. He really had a lot of little problems which altogether made him one, big,yucky mess. First of all he has kennel cough :shrug:I guess he picked it up at the...

It seems that my poor boy is falling apart! He has recurring trouble with his ears, and his right eye is weepy. It looks like his eye lid on his right eye turns in and maybe this is causing it to weep. I also noticed that his right ear is bothering him more that the left so I wonder if there...

So yesterday my daughter and I went to a Castaway Critter rescue group "pamper your pooch" day at the local park. There were a few vendors with fund raising items, and raffles along with lots of dogs to meet! Scout was very friendly, and very happy to be out making new friends. He was the...

Hi all, I need to pick your brains for some creative ideas! I teach kindergarten and have been thinking about my welcome back bulletin board for this year. I wanted to have some type of dog theme for the board as well as in my room. I'm in a catholic school, and I thought the dog theme could...

Thank you everyone for all of your thoughts and prayers. When I got home from work and saw how difficult it was for her to just be...well, I knew what had to happen. It was almost as if she knew I was taking her go to a place where she could rest. It was quiet, and very fast. She just laid...

Time andold age have crept in on my Alex girl. She is 15 and has been losing weight rapidly within the last few weeks. She drinks constantly and has lost interest in food. Well, I cook for her and she will muster a few bites, but then returns to her spot behind our chair in our dining room...

I was wondering where all of you take your fur babies! When we decided to get Scout, we wanted a dog that we could take with us wherever we went. We try to take him wherever we can. He has been to my school a few times at the end of the day and the children just love him. He has been to a...

Hi to all my newf friends. Sorry I have not been posting lately as this is my first year teaching kindergarten! Whew! Those kids keep me busy. Now to my question/problem: I took Scout to the groomer's this morning, and when I went to pick him up the girl asked me if I knew that he was dog...

Scout got sprayed by a skunk last night! He's at the spa getting de-skunked. We put baking soda on him to neutralize the odor and rinsed him well but... the odor is lingering. Hopefully when I pick him up later he will smell better. He just has to! I guess it could have been worse, my...
