Welcome to the Northern Newfoundland Club...

Welfare Still Needs Your Help!

As you know the Northern Newfoundland Club Welfare believes that we all have a responsibility to rescue dogs in need; to educate the public about the desirability of adopting Newfoundlands as companions and family pets in the home.

None of this would be possible without the generous donations of money that we receive, and therefore we are appealling to you all to help by making a donation to NNC Welfare.

To find out more about the work and some of the costs involved, click the link below.

Our members and visitors to this our Club website are vitally important to our fund raising efforts therefore we have decided to raise the profile of Welfare by including below a new Welfare Paypal donation facility. We would be most grateful for any donation, however small.

The Northern Newfoundland Club is pleased to announce our first virtual online show to be judged in February 2021. The show includes Newfoundlands (classification) & all breeds (novelty). The show schedule and entry details to be published on 1st February 2021.

We would like to extend a warm welcome to the following judges:

Our judge Mr Ian Harland will study photos and or video entries of each Newfoundland before choosing his class winners first then making his decision to award BIS, RBIS, BPIS and BVIS. To be announced Sunday 7th March 2021.

Rosettes will be provided for all class winners, and entries are open to all (except NNC main committee)

Photo Competition - Beat the January Blues

With a new national lockdown now upon us the NNC have decided to run a photo competition. The theme of the competition is "Newfs Outdoors".
We all know that exposure to daylight is good for us since we can often become depressed during the darker months due to our limited sunlight exposure. Our brains love sunlight - it helps to regulate our sleep cycles properly. So when you can make sure you get yourself outside and get as much daylight as you can while it lasts! It’s good for you (and will certainly make you more productive)! While you are out take a photo of your Newf and submit it - you might win one of three prizes we have, which are:

Entries close at midday on 31st January 2021 and will be judged by the NNC Main committee. Open to all except NNC Main Committee.

For further information please see the post on the NNC Facebook page

Good Luck!
