I can't wait to own a Newfoundland someday!!! I've wanted one since I was little and read about one in a book (can't remember what one) where a newfie saved a his owner, a little girl, from drowning. And from everything I've read, they seem like THE BEST dogs!! But alas, I'm renting, and can't have dogs where I live, and I'm not sure I'll ever be able to own my own house in the area I live (one of the most expensive housing markets in the country!!!!)...so for now I dream of the day I can own a dog and just love my cats.

BTW - I'm new to this community - I just introduced myself and my two cats in the cat forum. I hope you don't mind my posting here as I am a great dog lover too!!
