Hello!
I'm for Illinois in the US and I'm looking at buying a newf puppy. I currently have a female deaf Great Dane rescue, a female newf/brit/ whatever else mix that we reacued, and regularly visiting goldens (a male and a female). The great dane and the male golden have been through extensive obedience training. The female golden is a year and has quite a lot of obedience training and will start basic therapy work in the next 6 months. The newf mix is a year but didn't do past basic obedience outside the home as she is so scared of strangers. Her puppyhood was really traumatic.
We plan on visiting a breeder this weekend to meet their dogs.
With our newf we would like to get into water work and possibly drafting once old enough.
The drool isn't a huge issue to us, but given the option less drool would be better.
We were wondering what you see in your newf's personalities and if you see differences between your males and females. We were told females drool less but can be more difficult to train. Is there attachment differences between males and females? Thanks in advance and if this needs to be moved please feel free to instruct me where.
