I know plenty of show quality Newfs with health problems.  I would also disagree that Newfies are sensitive.  Most of them have hardy temperaments, meaning they don't crack under pressure.

Oh!  I have to disagree with your disagree!!! ;)

Our two boys are incredibly sensitive and receptive to human and other animal emotions and body language.  They honestly do have very human like characteristic s.  If my boys hear a baby or little child cry they go nuts.  Whine and cry.  If another dog is in trouble, they let you know.  They let us know when our neighbors dog had his leg stuck in a major hole and couldn't move.  The dog was not crying.  To elderly to do much of anything.

Jaebear really summed it up.

Also, ALWAYS health certs whether show or not.  A Newfie should have the best possible breeding whether Show or not.   Remember to check for OFA heart, elbows and hips...Cystine ria Clear...

If someone offers you a lesser price for pet vs show...walk away.  Good Newfie breeders do not devalue any of their babies.

If you haven't been around a Newf, it might be a real good idea to be exposed to some Adult newfs.  Stay away from babies because NO ONE can resist a Newfie baby!!  Seeing what they are like after full grown gives you a better idea of what you are going to be living with!!!  They are NOT outside dogs!!

Congratulation s!!!
Yep, sometimes you never know until you try!!!  My guys love the little fellows they meet.  BUT, the little fellows, most of them, are rather intimidated at first!!!  My oldest when we were in obedoemce had a little terrior friend who literally would hang off of my fellow's mane!!  It was cute, and they were both only babies at the time.  The terrior was so tiny compare to my 4 month old Newf!!  ROTFL!!!
