Well, she's here.
It was a long day getting her...delays in transport, getting lost, etc. But, we finally have her home. She acts as if she has never seen a house before. She paces and paces and paces and paces and gets into EVERYTHING! Its...trying. hahha! So, I'm going to get her a crate today and we're going to start working on boundaries..an d potty training.
So, without further ado, here is Special!
Yes, she is shaved. So she looks funny. My neighbor thought she was a Newf-a-doodle!!!

She's too cute. There's no mistaking that beautiful Newfy face. She'll be a hard one to let leave.
-
She is a beautiful girl! I didnt know you get a new dog ;) LOL Im sure she will blossom from being with you.
-
Thanks guys! We'll see...I'm not refusing to be a foster failure...but we'll just have to see.
Yeah, Blair. She's our newf-foster. hehehe...I hope she blossoms, too. She is a MAJOR sweetie pie, but has some manners and boundaries to learn. I think she'll be a quick study, too. Thanks for the confidence!

Oh wow Cole! What a cutie!!

OMG she's precious!! I just love her face! I'm sure she's just pacing cause of the new environment, she's be settled in, in no time! YAY, I'm so excited for you! ;D

I love her! Can't wait to see her when her locks grow back in. How old is she?
-
She's too cute! :-* What does Cabeza think of her?

She is 3 years old and weighs 106 pounds. I think she probably should put on like..oh...may be 10 pounds? She's pretty thin. What do you think?

hahahha, he doesn't! He basically just ignores her. They regard one another, and will lay in the same general area...and no fighting or anything. But they aren't best friends yet.
-
Oh she is beautiful!!! Good luck!
-
Nicole, I'm sooo happy for you! Special has such a sweet-goofy-Newfie face! I agree with everyone else: she will settle in and learn the rules in no time. They are so smart and want to please! Where did she come from ? What's her back ground? How did she lose her eye? (isn't that why she's 'Special'?)
Extra kisses and drools from us to Cabeza for learning to share his family!!
-
AW, she is beautiful. Look at her head wow :o I would so be a foster failure with her...lol I am glad she found you Nicole. She is so lucky to have you to help her now.
Can't wait to see more picture of her and her progress ;) ;D

Bless your heart for taking her in, she will have a good Christmas this year!!! ;D

She comes from Winddancer Newfs in Missouri. I'm not really sure why they gave her up...or what the circumstances were. I just know that she was the breeder's dog. ??? Her eye is still in there, its just like...atrophi ed. It was from an unspecified accident. They think that maybe mama sat on her in the whelping box or something.
I'd like to know more about her. I'll let you know if I find out anything else!
-
What a gorgeous girl! I am so happy for Special AND you! Foster failure, or not... she is lucky to have found her way to your home! :)
