Rescue and Referral Service

NCNE proudly maintains a rescue and referral service for the purpose of finding good homes for displaced Newfoundland dogs. Newfoundlands come into our Rescue for a variety of reasons. People often buy a puppy and don't anticipate the size of an adult or the commitment of time, grooming and training. Other families are faced with personal crises. Some rescues are the victims of neglect or abuse.
A veterinarian evaluates every Newfoundland that comes into Rescue. We are committed to placing only healthy dogs. All our rescues become current on their vaccinations and are spayed or neutered. We test for heartworm, Lyme disease, ehrlichiosis and anaplasmosis. Complete blood work is performed, including a full CBC/Chem Screen, and we treat any illness that is revealed. Rescue makes careful assessments of temperament and behavior.

In order to make the best match between the Newf and people, we have an adoption process. This includes filling out an application, checking the provided references and making a home visit to discuss safety issues and personally answer any questions. 

Our goal for each Newfoundland rescue is to place him in a home with caring people who will make him a life long family member.

MARSHALL is 6 year old sweet boy who loves everyone, including cats. He came to us through the kindness of an Animal Control Officer and the shelter staff in Lincoln, RI. He was found abandoned deep in a park and was in terrible condition , includ ing  this huge growth on his underside. That tumor has been removed and another tumor on his side has been biopsies.

Marshal is now in the care of NCNE Rescue.

The large tumor was benign but the smaller  one  is an hermangiopericytomas. According to our veterinarians, it is a malignant tumor that does not metastasize. It will be removed by a specialist May 5 and he will recuperate with us.

We are looking for a special , loving  home for Marshall. We will provide all the necessary medical information and the  adopter  must accept the responsibility of caring for him with the understanding that the tumor might return. Even given that  prognosis , Marshall will be a  wonderful addition to a family !

Here are some of our rescues who are waiting to be adopted.

Happy Tails

.Here are some of our rescues who have completed the journey to loving new homes.


                                                                 

DUNCAN HAS BEEN ADOPTED!!!

DUNCAN is 3 years old and his tail is constantly wagging!! Yet he came into Rescue with a list of health issues and hadn’t seen a veterinarian since he was 10 weeks old.

Duncan tested very high for Lyme, had a large umbilical hernia, obvious cherry eyes, two ear infections and skin infections. He was not neutered and needed all his vaccinations.

Duncan has been shaved and given medicated baths every other day and is on antibiotics for Lyme and the other infections. He just had surgery for the cherry eyes and hernia. Through all of this his temperament has been outstanding! What a terrific boy!!

Duncan’s vet bills are high and his recovery will be long, but he is on the road to a healthy, happy life!

NCNE Rescue needs your financial support for Duncan! Please make a donation in his name by using the PayPal tab below or write to rescue@newfclubne.org for the address to send a check
