That's funny that you mentioned "show newfs" oc_spririt and RD. I too do not like what the show world trend is doing to the breed. The coats are too heavy, the flews are too loose, the eyes are too droopy and the heads are getting way too big. These are Newfs, not Saints and they shouldn't have the head of a Saint. It's hard to find a breeder that stays true to the standard and does not bend to these new trends. Ok...I'll stop my rant now!
noludoru~I have 4 grey kitties. 1 is a grey stripe and the other 3 are solid grey. In the winter I notice a bit of dandruff, but nothing that the humidifier can't fix. And now they are all shedding, but otherwise nothing out of the ordinary. What kind of coat problems are you having? Is it something that a little salmon oil might fix?
Yes, SummerRiot, there is a lot of grooming!
You get used to it, well you have to otherwise you would have Newf-hair tumbleweeds taking over your house!
