Newfoundland Breeder

Officer Giggles

hi all can anyone recommend a newfoundland breeder in the dublin area, i have been onto the newfoundland association of ireland but the contact there wont give me any details for whatever reason i dont know(must be afraid i wont like the pup i get and try to take legal action or something), have gone to a couple of shows but the only breeders i found were in cork and up north. if i have to travel that far i will be obviously i would prefer not to have to, any help would be highly appreciated

Officer Giggles

Anyone Please

There arent many good breeders in ireland so the chances are you will have to travel and also wait for a pup as there arent many litters around.

My friend just had to wait more than a year for one and had to go to the UK in the end as no litters in ireland at the moment and for the near future.

I would advise going to some dog shows and getting to know some of the exhibitors and tell them you are interested in a pup and ask them to put you on the waiting list.
These dogs are not easily sourced and you will have to wait for a pup.

Just to add, these dogs arent cheap either, expect to pay anywhere in the region of 1000-1500 euro or sterling for a pup.

if you where to contact baranova the breeder is Barbara turner she is handy for the boat also.I can reccomend her dogs.
be careful where you buy from as there are alot of back yard breeders out there breeding newfoundlands that look like flat coat retrievers and dont resemble the breed.with lots of health problems.

andreac

No prob, he wont have any pups for a while.

Best thing is to make contact with these breeders and have a good chat with them and show you are interested.

Barabara puts endorsemnents on her pups which are lifted when they get to a year old and have been health tested and passed. she is also very fussy where they go and is a very responsible breeder.She does have a web site.
