CONGRATULATION S!!!  Welcome to the wonderful world of Newfie ownership.  Is this your first?  William is a cutie, enjoy him while he is small.  Soon he will be grow into his awkward stage where he looks like a gorilla and then he gets HUGE!  Every time you walk him it will be like you have a celebrity on a leash.  Also, there is going to be a series of questions and comments that people will say over and over and over and over.......  Comes with the breed.  Have fun!

Actually, I had a blind rescue Newfie a couple fo years ago, but that did not work out too well as I had my elderly mom living with us and Fyn didn't know how to get out of the way.  He's in a only-dog, non-fragile owner home now. :)  At any rate, Will is my first newfie pup AND I LOVE HIM SOOOOOOO MUCH! LOL! 

Personally, I'll be happy when the puppy chewing, crating, housebreaking stuff is over.  He's doing really well though on all counts I must say.  I do love his puppy breath :)  And you're right, it is like having a celebrity on a leash!

Ah, Puppy Breath.  My wife misses that part of Drake when he was a puppy the most.

I miss the puppy coat. Nothing compares to that soft, fluffy, afro-like hair they get. Aw...I get sad just thinking about how long ago it was that I saw it.

It IS as soft as down.  People can't resist petting him, and so naturally I always brush him out nice and fluffy and shiny before we out in public :)

Adorable picture of your Sleepy William

Hi guys!

Nice puppy pics of your sleeping William!  He is absolutely adorable!  We miss the puppy coat too!  We have two 2yr olds and one 9 month old but,  his puppy coat is already turning into a big boy coat!

Keep on spoiling that William pup!
