Hey Jess....

I've called a friend who asked me to keep my eyes open for an adult  Newf who needs a home.  They are an older couple (maybe late 50's) and they adore my dogs...but don't want to do the puppy thing.  Hopefully they will contact the shelter.  I'll let you know what happens!

Fingers and paws crossed here!!!!

Poor Buddy!  I'm looking into this one, So Cal isn't too far away.  I have reported this to the NCNC Health & Rescue, so maybe they can help.  They have rescued and placed a lot of Newfs in need.

Thank you SO much!  I'm so worried about this boy...he looks sweet and really needs a home.  He must be scared in the shelter.  I hope someone can take him in.

Keep me in the loop guys - I can't foster, but I am in San Diego and might be able to give him a ride if needed...

Poor thing! The sheer volume of dogs in need is overwhelming. I'm in SD and I'll put the word out.....unfort unately we're not in a position to adopt or foster another dog.  :'(

He's sucha a good looking dog and Newf rescue is awesome in helping out those in need. I'm sure this boy will find a home in no time. ;)

Awww, Poor boy.  :'( He looks so scared. I'm definately too far away to be of any assistance. But I'm crossing my fingers that he gets a good home soon.

I currently have him in my home and I am looking for a wonderful home for him ASAP. He is a very sweet boy who deserves to be in a great home. If you are interested please email me. Thanks Jackie

Thanks for your hard work Jackie! I hope he goes to a great family!

We visited Jackie today and met this poor guy.  What a sweetie!  Here are a couple of photos...

His feet are very sore because he was probably dragged by a car.  He has a couple of staples in his left front leg and also an abrasion on his chin.  Even with all this, he still is super friendly and wants to meet everyone.  All his wounds should heal completely.  Now he just needs a forever home to love him.

He really deserves a great home!

Where are you in southern california.  have you found a home yet? any other information would be appreciated.

This boy has been rescued from the shelter, but we're still searching for his forever home.  He is currently in Riverside county with cvcalgal--she sprung him from "jail" so he wouldn't be PTS.  We could deliver him to someone to provide him a forever home!  Hopefully we can find him a great home soon!
: Re: Newf in need--anyone in So Cal?
: cvcalgal December 22, 2005, 08:48:24 PM
I live about 20 minutes from Palm Springs in Riverside County. He is currently doing very well considering all he has gone through. the vet said he is about 20 pounds under weight so he is getting all the food he wants and plenty of love. I really don't want to get attach to him because I already have 4 dogs. I want him to be adopted ASAP but it must be to a good home. So if you are interested please email me. Thanks for all your concerns. And Merry Christmas to all.

I am still hoping this sweet and very lovable boy goes to a wonderful home. I have had him for almost 2 weeks and need to find him a great home ASAP. If I don't find him  a home I will have to contact the rescue group and hope they take him. Thanks for your concerns.

I'm out of town but will follow up leads when I get back on Wednesday.  Hopefully we can get him placed!

I've sent out emails, but no response. I believe the holidays has people out of town or otherwise out of touch. Please hang in there for another week.

I just joined today after meeting a fellow newf owner in Oxnard.

We live in La Canada, currently own Portia, our tiny little newf bitch, and are considering another.  Is this poor guy still available?

Hi and welcome to BPO!  I believe that this doggie is going to be placed through So. Cal. Newf Rescue.  However, you should send a message to Cvcalgal--she has been fostering him and will have all the up to date information. 

This is a really sweet newfie who deserves a great home!  Let us know if you adopt him!!! :)
: Re: Newf in need--anyone in So Cal?
: jimryals January 06, 2006, 09:21:38 PM
Message sent to Cvcalgal.  Will let you know what happens.
: Re: Newf in need--anyone in So Cal?
: cvcalgal January 07, 2006, 02:11:52 AM
I have a lady coming over tomorrow afternoon to see him and see if he is a match for her and her Newfie she has. If he is not a match he will still be looking for a place. The Newfie rescue is helping with his placement. I will reply tomorrow letting you know if he was placed or not. If he wasn't you can contact the So Cal Newfie Rescue afterwards. Thanks for all your concerns.

: newflvr January 08, 2006, 04:41:37 PM
Our boy has been placed.  The Newf Rescue group in San Diego had a person on file who had been waiting for a special Newf.  I'll post more details as I get them.  YEA!!!!   ;D ;D ;D ;D

Another happy ending!  Thanks Jess, for bringing him to our attention!  (happy dance here!!!)

Just heard that the woman who took him is on 10 acres of land and has a 10 month old Newf puppy....it all sounds SOOO good!
: Re: Newf in need--anyone in So Cal?
: Newf Lover January 08, 2006, 06:00:45 PM
That is so great!  What a happy ending, I hope it all works out for him and he lives the rest of his Newf life, happy and loved. :)
