Remy, Our Newfie Nephew

This weekend our friends Maija and Jason came to visit us. They drove all the way from California to pick up their Newfie puppy, Remy from Katie and Louie's breeders Bill and Bonnie Bennett. It was wonderful to get to spend some time with our friends and it was super exciting to get to see them meeting their baby Newf for the first time.


Remy is one of the most gorgeous Newf puppies I have ever seen. He's also one of the sweetest. Seriously, I think he is as sweet as Katie and Louie!! In fact, Gary and I both fell in love with the little bear within five minutes of meeting him. Gary and I secretly plotted a Newfie puppy abduction, but then gave up the idea because we like Maija and Jason too much to do that to them :-)

Louie and Remy are half brothers...they have the same Mama: Robin.

Katie adored Remy as she does all puppies (especially the Newfie type). Louie seemed to like him too, but I didn't trust him alone with the baby. I know Louie would never hurt a puppy on purpose, but he could do some damage if he accidentally stepped on Remy. Katie, on the other hand, is super careful of where she places her feet when she is around a little one. We did manage to get a few closely supervised pictures of the three Newfs together.

We were sad to see Maija, Jason and Remy go, but so happy that they have each other. Remy has very caring parents who will lavish him with lots of love... lucky boy... AND lucky parents!!!

Jack has met some of his brothers and sisters, but I don't think they recognized each other :(

He's also met his dad and grandma.
