Newfoundland Pictures / Snow in So Cal!?!
« on: February 22, 2006, 01:05:08 pm »
We met Baileyboy in the mountains for some Newfie snowtime fun last weekend.  The doggies had such a blast! :)  For Bella and Sasha, it was their first snow...Bailey too?  They also played with their non-newfie pal, Keilo.  :) Here are a few photos.

Food Discussion & Information / Food Allergies
« on: February 05, 2006, 01:24:47 am »
My parents' dog, Daisy, is an Anatolian shepard mix.  She was diagnosed with food , swelling around her face and in her legs has gone away and she is much less itchy.  She has always been a picky eater, and now we think that it was probably due to food allergies.   :P

Has anyone else had experience with food allergies?  Any suggestions on what to feed?  My mom is happy to cook for Daisy, but isn't sure what to include (veggies, meat, etc.) to make balanced meals.

Thanks everyone! :)allergies last week.  The vet suggested cooked rice and chicken instead of kibble.  Since last week

We took Bella for her first "swim" today.  Well, it was more of a "wade" but they had a good time.  Here are some photos:

(The last one is Sasha in her chair.  This whole puppy thing is wearing her out!) :)

I bought Sasha a Santa hat before Christmas.  Her favorite part was eating the hat after the photo shoot... ::)

Newfoundland Pictures / Introducing...Annabelle!!!
« on: January 15, 2006, 01:14:41 pm »
We have a new newfie puppy!  :) Her name is Annabelle (although we call her Bella) and she is 10 weeks old.  She and Sasha are having a great time playing together.  Bella has made herself right at home with us.  She has no fear and is into everything!  ::)  She wants to do everything Sasha does.  Here are a few photos:  The first four are of Bella or Bella and Sasha and the last is with Bailey (Baileyboy).

Helpful Groups & Dogs in Need / Two lost dogs--please help!
« on: October 28, 2005, 06:36:56 am »
My sister (girl4dirt) found two dogs last night in north Phoenix, AZ.  Their photos are shown in the PawPrints under Two Lost Dogs.  They are very sweet and have obviously been someone's pets.  They love to snuggle and be petted and were very well behaved.  One is a rottie or rottie mix puppy, about 9 months old.  The other is a bit older, possibly a shepard mix?  Both are males, not neutered.  One has a collar but no tags. :(

She cannot keep them (small apartment...sh e already has a pit bull mix she found last february) and they are at the shelter now.  Hopefully their owners will be found, but in the meantime, please help us get the word out.  If the owners don't come for them, is anyone interested???

As soon as the shelter info is available, I will add it to this post.

Please help out these sweet doggies!  Thanks!
Jessica

Monthly Photo Contests / Sasha - October '05
« on: October 22, 2005, 11:55:53 pm »
Breed: Newfoundland

Birthday and age: December 22, 2004 (currently 10 months old)

Explanation of how you chose the winning outfit: Like many big paw families, we often hear "Do you have a saddle for that thing?".  We thought it would be funny to actually have a saddle for poor Sasha.  A few pieces of felt and a hot glue gun made a passable saddle and an uncooperative Sasha made for a funny photo.  Sasha was not very impressed with the saddle.  ::)

Best/Worst traits of your dog: Sasha is a snuggle dog!  She loves to snuggle with us and will sit in your lap if you let her.  It is very cosy, but we also call her the Crushinator--she'll squash you if you aren't careful!

Best Liked/Least Liked food/treat of your dog:  Best: beef jerky!  Least: small treats from the treat bins at our chain pet store--she just spits them out. 

Favorite Toy: Soccer ball!

Favorite place to hang out in the house: Sasha's favorite spot is where ever we are in the house.  She is a snuggle dog!

Best friend (dog friend) and why: Bailey...Baile y and Sasha go swimming and romping together.  They have a great time!

Favorite memory with this dog: We've only had Sasha since February, but it seems like she's always been with us.  I guess my favorite memories are the little things--snuggling on the couch, playing when she was really little, and bringing her home the first day.  :)

Anything Non-Dog Related / Eggs? My husband found the strangest thing...
« on: October 01, 2005, 05:20:47 am »
My husband found 2 tiny (1 inch or so) eggs in the garden today.  They are white with a tiny bit of very light blue coloring.  They have hard shells like birds eggs but they are just in the garden and there doesn't seem to be a nest or anything.  No birds or other creatures were anywhere around.  Does anyone know what they are?  Have they been abandoned?  Could they ever hatch?  Thanks!

Newfoundland Pictures / We met Baileyboy!
« on: September 18, 2005, 02:48:49 pm »
We met Bailey and his people for a BPO junior newfie swimming adventure!  Bailey and Sasha are almost the same age and they had a great time!  Here are a couple of photos, the first is Bailey and Sasha swimming and the second in Sasha in the car after.  She was so tired!

Newfoundland Pictures / Sasha's Beach Trip
« on: August 15, 2005, 10:45:02 am »
We had "Sasha Day" on Saturday--we went to the off-leash dog beach and then to the 3 Dog Bakery for treats.  Sasha had so much fun!   :)  We took some photos...

The first three are at the beach and the last one is the best (although terrible  :P ) photo from the bakery.

On Sunday we met another Newfoundland at the dog park--he was the only other Newfie we have seen in our area!   :)

Jessica and Sasha
