Hello Everyone!

First of all, let me thank everyone again for the very nice Christmas cards, pics etc...Extra thanks again & hugs to our SS Julie & her crew!  Julie you rock! 

Thank you also for the get well wishes for our Dad who went in the hospital shortly before Christmas but, he is home now & doing pretty well.  Thanks for all the kind e-mails. 

Throw in Christmas & New Year's and I don't know where the last month went!  Holy cow!  Well I am glad to be back on with the wonderful people here at BPO!

We are back online for the evening but, I wanted to share some very fun & wonderful news about our Newfies!  We are getting another Newfie pup tomorrow and boy will our puppers be shocked!  We are so excited & thrilled to pieces and can't wait to pick her up!!!  It all came about so quickly & we still can't believe it.  Our breeder contacted us & was in a bind.  Our breeder is keeping one pup from the latest litter but, it is nuts to try & keep 2 pups with the 2 others she already has, plus a dear friend of hers needs lots of medical care & support.  She has a full plate of stuff going on and we are fortunate enough to be able to take a pup from her & give that pup a wonderful home plus lots of big siblings!!  Our three pups are going to flip!! 

We will be running like nuts from the get go tomorrow but, I hope when the soon to be 4 pups are sleeping, I can get back online & post some pics!  Our new pup is an all black female & we are thinking of naming her Ceilidh (pronounced KAYLEE).  It is a Gaelic derivative for a type of Scottish & Irish social dancing but, the best part it means Companion.  Perfect for a Newf! 

I am glad to be back online with this wonderful group at BPO!  I hope you will allow us back since being gone for awhile!

Happy, Healthy Newf Year to All!!

Anita & the 3, (soon to be 4) Newfies
