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, 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.

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, 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 Big hugs (and they have to be big) to Cora and Kira.
