    Give me my Newfie Fix!!

    I know I sound crazy, but I absolutely love Newfies, never met one but I love them - isn't that crazy??

    If you have any newfies and wanna add your pic to this thread to help me out, I'd appreciate it!

    I'm hoping to go to Crufts next year so I can meet one in the flesh and see for myself!! The excitement is bursting out of me! :lol:

    I wish one day I can be a proud owner of one!

    Thank you so much :)
    I really adore these cute bears.

    Is there anywhere I can go to see these dogs? Like a Newfie club somewhere, where I can see what they are like etc...crufts seems so far away :(

    Your dogs are GORGEOUS!!
    It must be so much fun swimming with them. Such a great bond to build.

    dippyleo - some lovely pics there, i enjoyed them.:grin:

    As for meeting the dogs, i will try and find out some show dates for you.

    I belong to a water rescue display group. We are about 10 newfie owners who train and then do displays with there dogs. We have a website and raise money for a childrens hospice and dogs trust. We've also done some tv appearances. Just filmed the one show and waiting for it to be aired. Whizz one of our big landseer newfs won the dogs trust award this year for rescueing a setter.

    The web address, with all the stories is:http://www.newfoundfriends.co.uk/index.html

    If you look on the events page, it tells you where we are doing our displays, unfortunately we are at the end of our season, but may be handy for next year. We get loads of public coming to see and talk to us about our dogs.

    Thanks shiba, I can't get over how gorgeous your girls are ... and I can't believe Jess is nearly 2! :shock: Time is flying By! :grin:

    We don't belong to a Draught group, we have a cart etc but only chance we get to use it is at Seth's breeders when we go for fun days etc .... Seth Lurves his cart and so shows off when he's pulling it!
    Maybe it's something that your water group could start doing? :?

    You've just got me thinking:lol:

    When we do our demo's in the water, we walk back with the wet dogs through the crowds of people that have been watching us. We have hospice collection buckets. We did try last year to attach 2 to one of the big dogs by there harness, as they attract the most attention, people always want to touch and cuddle them. :lol:

    If i was only clever enough i could make a collection cart, how cool would that be. :lol:

    Thank you.

    Are last display is a private one in Bristol. Its to raise money for guide dogs, i've been told that we have about 40 blind people being sponsered to be rescued from the marina.

    Thats going to be interesting how thats going to work, but will probabley raise alot of money again so am looking forward to it.

    I expect there will be loads of guide dogs as well around.
