The mission of the rescue organization is the dedication for the preservation and advancement of the Newfoundland Dog by rescuing the unfortunate Newfoundlands that may end up abused, neglected, abandoned, or in shelters. A Newfie should not be acquired casually or disposed of lightly but sometimes an owners's circumstances change and the Newf is unable to remain with its original owner. It is on these occasions that we will find a new, permanent home where the Newfoundland will be loved, cared for, and respected for its unique abilities. Any pure breed Newfoundland that is legally turned over to us is immediately taken to one of our participating veterinarians for a complete health check, vaccinations, if needed, and is spayed/neutered. The Newf is then placed into one of our foster homes for an undetermined length of time (depending on the Newf’s condition) for a complete evaluation of the Newf’s retraining, rehabilitation and restoring of health. The Newf will be kept in foster care as long as necessary to prepare it for entry into its new and permanent home. Before any adoption is ever made, a site visit is made to the potential adoptee's home to determine if they and their home environment would be suitable for a Newfoundland. All potential adoptee's must have the proper pet supplies to keep their Newfy happy and safe.
You will be asked to complete a detailed questionnaire by the local regional club which is designed to assess your suitability as a home for a rescued Newf and to help match a dog to your particular lifestyle. The questions are also meant to help you determine if a Newf is the right breed for you. Your decision to adopt a rescued Newf should be based on a desire to help a dog in need, not as a way to find an inexpensive puppy. We don’t have puppies and very seldom have dogs two years old or younger. The average age of a rescued Newf tends to be three to seven - occasionally even older. It is our belief that every Newf (with a good temperament) is entitled to a happy home to live out its life.
