What is Rescue?
Occasionally, someone finds that they cannot or do not wish to continue sharing their home with a Newfoundland dog. At that point, the Newfoundland Club of America will take ownership of the dog and arrange for its care.
What happens to these dogs?
They are evaluated for health and behavior problems, and then are placed in homes. Homes are selected based upon the best interests of the dog. For instance, a dog that had a problem with small animals would never be placed in a home with cats or rabbits.
