Mary


MARY

2020-005

I was adopted!

Quick Adoption Overview
DOB October 13, 2019
Located in the Guelph area
Fenced yard required

DUE TO COVID WE ARE NOT PLACING DOGS INTO THE UNITED STATES AT THIS TIME

Before applying to adopt a dog or emailing us with questions, please read the dog's entire bio and review our FAQ page.  Emails asking questions that are answered on that page will not be responded to.



All about Mary

This love-bug came to us through no fault of her own, when her loving owner's health declined.  Mary is a sweet, sassy, and lively girl who has loads of puppy energy and so much love to give.


Mary has nice house manners and knows her basic commands but needs some work to help control her enthusiasm.   She is a whirling dervish who is bubbling over with puppy energy!  Such a silly girl.  With training, structure, and socialization she will blossom into a wonderful companion.


An owner who has the time and energy to properly exercise Mary will be essential for her.  She has a lot of energy to burn!

She will do best with a family who will be committed to working on obedience and socialization with Mary to continue with her training.   She knows the basics but is easily distracted and excitable so has much work to do.  She's a typical hooligan adolescent and needs to learn manners! 


She gets along well with other dogs and loves to romp and play.  A home with a well-mannered, playful, four-footed pal will be the best fit for Mary.  We are not considering homes where she would be the only dog. 

To be considered for adopting a dog through Newf Friends please submit a completed application, which can be found on the CONTACT US/FORMS page. Before completing an application or emailing us with questions, please review our FAQ page.  As outlined on our FAQ page, applicants who do not meet our adoption requirements (ie. no fenced play area, living in an apartment building, having young children, etc.) will not be considered -- please do not email us asking us to make an exception.

Rosie


ROSIE

2020-004

I was adopted!

Quick Adoption Overview
DOB March 17, 2013
Located in Mississauga, ON
Home with no other pets is best
Fenced yard required

Before applying to adopt a dog or emailing us with questions, please read the dog's entire bio and review our FAQ page.  Emails asking questions that are answered on that page will not be responded to.


Due to the pandemic, we are unable to place dogs into the US at the moment. 

All about Rosie

This sweet gal came to us through no fault of her own due to her owner's health. 

She is a social gal who loves affection and will make an excellent companion for someone looking for a Newf who is out of their adolescent stage. She is very friendly and loves getting loads of attention.  


Rosie hasn't met a toy she doesn't like and is a silly girl who will play tug and fetch happily with anyone who will play with her. 




She is very fond of children and plays nicely with them so could join a family with kids. 

She has nice house manners, knows basic commands and walks well on a leash. 
 

She doesn't always love spending time with other dogs so would be happiest in a home where she will be the only dog. 

Rosie is in good health.  She is a bit of a squirrel chaser and is quite agile when motivated!  Due to her squirrel chasing tendencies she is not suited to a home with a cat.

More info will be posted about Rosie as we get to know her.
