Five years ago, my old newfoundland died at the age of 13 years 7 months, she was a lovely girl and I still miss her. Recently though, I have been thinking of maybe getting another newfoundland. Rosie was a Shermead, so I thought that even though I like the size and the gentle temperament of the newfoundland, I might consider a brown or black one this time around.

What is the average cost of a pup these days?

About £800 to 1000. You could get in touch with Merrybear breeders though as they have just rehomed a bitch, who had been returned to them. they were very helpful and may help you. The KC will have their phone no. Southhampton way I think. Stevie.
