I am a first time Newf owner. I have a beautiful girl whom my daughter named Brizo after the Greek goddess who protected sailors. I've had Brizo since Christmas after my family did much researching to discover what type of dog would fit my personality. I teach urban high school Seniors, and my husband wanted me to have a reason to look forward to coming home and de-stress. Now, I do. I can't see myself owning another type of dog. Brizo is the doggie love of my life. :heart:
