Q. & A. with Connie
Why did you start breeding?
The newfs have always been my stress releaset, enjoyment, and part of our family. They are next to human, very intelligent, and loving. They are the best breed for families with children and protectors by proximity.What makes your program special?
Our Newfoundlands are family raised from birth. Parents have health clearances, standard confirmation, and great temperments. They are hand held from birth and socialized with other dogs and people. We start potty training once weaned, are bathed before they go for their 6 and 8 week health checks, and eventually light leash walking. They transition easily into their new home.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Breeder-Reported Testing
Excellent level
Luvrnewfies reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Newfoundlands.
Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)
Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
Vet Wellness Exam
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
Cystinuria Type 1A, Newfoundland Type
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
