WARNING: Disturbing Newfy pictures

I'm sorry about alarming you but if you're squeamish about seeing neglected and abused Newfs, you may not want to see these pictures. They were sent to me from the kind folks at Fallon Animal Shelter where they found this poor girl starving, neglected, possibly abused and wandering the streets.














Tony from Fallon Animal Shelter has reassured me that she has been placed with Lin & Becky of the Northern California Newf Rescue. I want to personally thank Silvia Jones of Las Vegas Newfoundland Rescue, Lori Altman in Reno, Becky Gertz and Summer Poris of Northern California for delivering this precious girl into safe hands. Bless you all.

Oh poor Newfy. That's enough to bring tears to my eyes. You mentioned she will be going to N.CA.Rescue...does she have a home to go to yet and will they keep you updated? I'm so glad she is safe now.

Right now, I imagine they're just making her comfortable and will keep her for a while to determine any behaviorial problems she may have. I will contact them later this evening to find out more. I did cry seeing these photos but I know she is safe and will find a loving home sometime soon. She's not at her best physically from her ordeal but you can see what a beauty she is, regardless.

Seeing these pictures makes me so mad
How can anyone allow a newfie or any breed get to this point? I had tears just looking at the condition they were in. I wish I could have reached through the screen just to scratch their heads and tell them things would get better. Hopefully they'll get the love, hugs, kisses, good food, doggie treats and attention they truly deserve.

What a wonderful thing you've done, Kanela, helping this poor girl! She looks like she's been thru a lot, but just knowing she's in good hands and will soon be with a loving family makes me feel better. I wish her the best!

After re-reading the story through drier eyes, I realized that this is just ONE newfie, sorry I mentioned "they".

She is a beauty. And her sad eyes will be happy soon. I know, Brenda, I would like to reach through my screen and pet her head. Everything's gonna be alright now, sweetie.

It breaks my heart to see any creature, but especially a newfie, in this kind of condition. And, like with all of the other folks here, it makes me so angry and upset to think that there's a person or persons out there who would allow this to happen to this wonderful creature. But I am thankful for a person like Kanela, who has taken the time and steps to help make sure that this newfie is placed with the right people who will help bring this newfie back to health, and into a home where it will get the love and attention that it deserves.

So horrific!


Those eyes just stab her pain straight into my heart. Kanela, please do keep us updated as best you can. I long for the day when I hear of or see love and happiness replacing the fear and pain in her gaze.

Such a lovely girl.
