Newfoundlands

Hello from a fellow Newfie Lover! Are there any other Newfie fans out there? This seems like a wonderful place to come and talk about dogs!!! :) :)

Welcome to Pet Talk, Annie Milliron!! So happy you could join all of us here! I love Newfies! But I don't have one! I have a Black Labrador Retriever, female, and her name is Sadie, and she is 5 years old. Again, welcome to Pet Talk!

Hi Annie! Welcome to Pet Talk! If you're a pet lover, you will absolutely love it here. Just be warned: it is addicting! :) I love Newfoundlands and hope to have one someday, but for now, I have a wonderful 2 year old Basset Hound named Daisy.

Hi Annie, welcome to PetTalk, I love those big Newfies they are like big teddy bears.
Sorry I have two Schnauzer terrors, I think you will enjoy it here, everyone is so friendly and helpful.

Hi, and thanks for the welcome!

:)

We had a Newf named Sadie Mae.... she was a rescue and was with us for almost two years before she died. She had major health problems, which included severe epilepsy.

Despite her illness, she had a beautiful spirit, and we miss her desparately. Someone told me when she died that: "When they leave us, the leave a hole the size of a crater". That about somes it up.

Here is a picture of Sadie

Here are my two Newfs, Cora and Kira! Cora is 3 and a half, and sitting behind Kira, who turned 1 in May.

They are the light of my life!

Oh Sadie is so beautiful, I know how much you must miss her, we lost our beloved Kona, a Schnauser at 14 last October, have you thought about making a memorial to her on http://www.bestfriends.com
they have a post called Angels Rest and you can put her photo there and write a little memorial, then revisit whenever you want.
There is no charge for doing that.

Thank you so much for the kind welcome.

I think I'm going to like this place!!! :D

Welcome! There's just nothing like a Newfie, is there? My favorite Newfie image was seeing a three-year-old girl curled up asleep in the family's Newfie at a busy town fair. All that commotion, but there was the Newfie, being a comfy bed for the little sleeping child, her long blonde hair mixing in a bit with the smooth black silk of her "nanny."

Hi and welcome to the list. :)
Your dogs are gorgeous.

What beautiful dogs you have!! They are gorgeous! Welcome to the BB. You will LOVE it here.
Sue, Killian and Shiloh

Hi, Annie & welcome to the friendliest, most supportive pet site. I live in Australia & have been made so welcome by the people on this board.
A young couple in our family have a black Newfie called Jaek & he actually was born in New Zealand, coming to Australia when he was abuut 5 years old.
When Jaek lived in New Zealand, his family's home was beside a National Park that tourists walked thro'. One day Jaek wandered into this park & his family went looking for him. They found him when they heard a woman tourist scream to her husband, "Honey, help! There's a bear." Yep, it was Jaek! :)

Sadie Mae was beautiful! No wonder you miss her so much. Your signature is touching now that I know the story behind it. Cora and Kira are so gorgeous! Just like big, shiny, happy teddy bears!

Welcome to Pet Talk. Your dogs are gorgeous! I have a mini poodle and a mini schnauzer.

Hi Annie! Welcome to this site. I love Newfies and yours are gorgeous!!!
When Carina was a six months old puppy I took her to the vet for her shots and there was a Newfie in the waiting room. If you can picture this: a small blond pup and a huge black Newfie seating and just looking at one another. It remainded me of King Kong and the blond actress in the old movie :D Big hugs (and they have to be big) to Cora and Kira.
