Are you looking for a reputable breeder?
If you're looking for a puppy and don't see one available through our foster program, please visit our BREEDER REFERRAL page to see a list of reputable NDCC breeders who have upcoming litters. Also be sure to check out our IDENTIFYING BACK-YARD-BREEDERS page for information on how to spot lousy breeders! Also, educate yourself about the growing number of Newfs who have poor temperaments thanks to lousy breeders.

Placements with "Special Adoption Conditions": From time to time dogs in our program are available to be adopted under "Special Adoption Conditions". This means that the dog is healthy enough to join an adoptive family, but their health issues are not fully resolved yet, or they are still recovering. In these cases, an approved adopter can have the dog join their family prior to their medical hold being lifted. We will continue to cover all costs associated with the specified treatment, then once the medical hold is lifted, conditions of the adoption will be lifted.
This option allows dogs in our program to join their adoptive families sooner, and frees up foster space for other dogs in need. At the same time, we continue to monitor the health of the dog and ensure that all medical needs are resolved. Win-Win!

We can only help as many dogs as we have foster homes and foster homes are always needed! If you think you'd like to foster a Newf in need please complete the Foster Home Application (get the application from the Forms section) and return it to us.
