Please be honest; we understand your dog may not be perfect, but the more we know, the better we can find the right new home for your dog. Your dog deserves a second chance to find a wonderful home, and by providing us with as much detail as possible, you will help Colonial Newfoundland Rescue Inc. better accomplish this goal.

All responses are confidential. We strive to be an open, safe space for you to share any and all concerns about your Newfoundland.
