I totally want to squish him and kiss him!!!

When do you start showing him, 6 months? I can't remember. We used to show dogs too, but haven't done it in 12 years now. Was so much fun too. Gorgeous puppy!!

Our regional newf club is having two conformation events in March and I was thinking of putting him in the 3 - 6 month category, but it might be too soon. I prefer to start with the regional club because it's so much more laid back, but I'm not going to start conformation/handling classes until his puppy kindergarten class is over and that's a 6 week course starting this Thursday. I don't mind waiting until April/May when he's 4 - 5 months old. Two of his brothers are showing next month, so I'm interested to see how they do in the 3 - 6 month category--both of their structures are slightly better than Boatswain, but it's really too early to tell. If you miss handling and want to show a pup in New England, I'm your girl He's not even old enough to have to worry about grooming!

Oh he is one adorably handsome guy! I can''t get over it. The two of them together make quite the stunning pair.

We feed our pup a raw diet, too. She loves her turkey necks.

VE! He''s beautiful!

OMGoodness I love those dogs! And yours are gorgeous! We were just in Colorado for few weeks and we always see a few of them out there, but not so much down here in Florida. I would love to have one but I''d feel bad about all this heat! Also I think I''d need a bigger house and car! Enjoy the puppy days, as you know they are gone before you know it!

Oh my goodness NEL, your doggies are irresistible! We have a couple of newfs in the neighboorhood (one''s a landseer) and I LOOOOOVE their luxurious silky coats. I just can''t not pet them when I see them walking by.

I love Boatswain! He is cute enough to eat!!!
Tell me about the puppy''s energy level, our new kitten (she is about 6 months old now)is driving everybody wild, including her two cat brothers.
