hi sherry, thanks for the welcome-i don't have my newf yet but have been lurking for awhile and thought i would get more involved. i have 2 dogs, one is a 10 year old shar pei and the other is a soon to be 8 yr.old labrador. they are the loves of my life and i can not wait until i can find a nice newf to add to the family. i like some others on this list love the brown newfs-well, i like all of them really- but the brown is so hard to find though. you guys have so much good information to share and i just love this list. when i get my newf i will try to post pics but until then thank you for letting me join in the fun!
