Newfs Go Off to War <http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs151/1101851326832/img/219.jpg> When Johnny Reb and Billy Yank marched off to war, chances are that a four-footed or winged creature went with them. Wartime animal mascots demonstrated bravery and loyalty, and earned the affections of their human counterparts. Dogs and horses were most commonly mascots for regiments, but a dignified eagle, a lumbering bear, and a sheep also had their place in camp and on the battlefield. Some Civil War mascots were an inspiration for the troops, while others were a reminder of beloved pets at home. Mascots brought loyalty and enthusiasm, and for soldiers, the act of nurturing animals also offset boredom in camp. <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001FiYsdbhhlNVP3kJ8P9vNoUReqe6xfHxmy-017ubBW3ed dfLNpzgFPzsRamTrxzJGp2aRcTRyGPkDKqF6qP5fpc-SPXa_TcwSX6q1oQgEW_J2FdaEZH110wKU FUVVkrPHGjVfSV0tKZ9iXHlb092yh1BUKb5IkmLt_mubENPP5Ni-mjfVB7p2-Q==> READ MORE Get the print - John Weiss - The Mascot Artist's Proof on Paper Kitchen <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001FiYsdbhhlNUU0XszBf7Tjjf3wnNaS6Z-3T3XEx3d9KOy pDPnk6vbiRDLxfMEXip5MT6se57IGoMhWaHYE9WN10JV7u3DIXE4QusbKpWPspxCVPBr5QYnUXk1 H5aN0ZiOUbGgdKtunL-3ziJsccKv9wTRFsvz39P-c2u1TyOSkHAI3_-ZsuUngL-F_vr8XnPxc709 4tQdeahqODCBW7wD5BQobOjgug5JZwXzkFb9aKiMNKyh6PXiCBMyFLJBGJeNhsVvwbsOIGvoMY8J RmA_f8a5WDuYEn3zlPtuyhIBiWvRBXKAqCPtFOg30im5GKq8Ze0NPAw7gsRAgenjP7lVExxuB4Ad f11vry0PyMM74sN2Gf3Sv22_WpLsAgflWofrQ6bQHwuMPQAUDJIi9_qQ_Q==> <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001FiYsdbhhlNUU0XszBf7Tjjf3wnNaS6Z-3T3XEx3d9KOy pDPnk6vbiRDLxfMEXip5MT6se57IGoMhWaHYE9WN10JV7u3DIXE4QusbKpWPspxCVPBr5QYnUXk1 H5aN0ZiOUbGgdKtunL-3ziJsccKv9wTRFsvz39P-c2u1TyOSkHAI3_-ZsuUngL-F_vr8XnPxc709 4tQdeahqODCBW7wD5BQobOjgug5JZwXzkFb9aKiMNKyh6PXiCBMyFLJBGJeNhsVvwbsOIGvoMY8J RmA_f8a5WDuYEn3zlPtuyhIBiWvRBXKAqCPtFOg30im5GKq8Ze0NPAw7gsRAgenjP7lVExxuB4Ad f11vry0PyMM74sN2Gf3Sv22_WpLsAgflWofrQ6bQHwuMPQAUDJIi9_qQ_Q==> <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001FiYsdbhhlNUU0XszBf7Tjjf3wnNaS6Z-3T3XEx3d9KOy pDPnk6vbiRDLxfMEXip5MT6se57IGoMhWaHYE9WN10JV7u3DIXE4QusbKpWPspxCVPBr5QYnUXk1 H5aN0ZiOUbGgdKtunL-3ziJsccKv9wTRFsvz39P-c2u1TyOSkHAI3_-ZsuUngL-F_vr8XnPxc709 4tQdeahqODCBW7wD5BQobOjgug5JZwXzkFb9aKiMNKyh6PXiCBMyFLJBGJeNhsVvwbsOIGvoMY8J RmA_f8a5WDuYEn3zlPtuyhIBiWvRBXKAqCPtFOg30im5GKq8Ze0NPAw7gsRAgenjP7lVExxuB4Ad f11vry0PyMM74sN2Gf3Sv22_WpLsAgflWofrQ6bQHwuMPQAUDJIi9_qQ_Q==> Buy Now <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001FiYsdbhhlNUU0XszBf7Tjjf3wnNaS6Z-3T3XEx3d9KOy pDPnk6vbiRDLxfMEXip5MT6se57IGoMhWaHYE9WN10JV7u3DIXE4QusbKpWPspxCVPBr5QYnUXk1 H5aN0ZiOUbGgdKtunL-3ziJsccKv9wTRFsvz39P-c2u1TyOSkHAI3_-ZsuUngL-F_vr8XnPxc709 4tQdeahqODCBW7wD5BQobOjgug5JZwXzkFb9aKiMNKyh6PXiCBMyFLJBGJeNhsVvwbsOIGvoMY8J RmA_f8a5WDuYEn3zlPtuyhIBiWvRBXKAqCPtFOg30im5GKq8Ze0NPAw7gsRAgenjP7lVExxuB4Ad f11vry0PyMM74sN2Gf3Sv22_WpLsAgflWofrQ6bQHwuMPQAUDJIi9_qQ_Q==> Dogs in Politics Day Takes a Turn <http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs151/1101851326832/img/220.jpg> September 23 was "Dogs in Politics Day" and as evidenced by this recent announcement by the AKC, responsible dog owners are getting more active in advocating for their rights to own and responsibly breed purebred dogs. "AKC Staff led by Chris Walker along with Bob Amen have been working with Edelman, our new public outreach partner, on the plan that will change the current conversation, as demonstrated in that Facebook post, by confronting the prejudice and telling the truth about purebred dogs and their responsible breeders. We will focus our efforts on two key audiences - families with kids 8-12 and empty nesters. These groups represent the critical inflection points for dog ownership and hold our best opportunities to correctly educate the public about purebred dogs and responsible dog breeding. An additional audience will be federal and local legislators. Our experience makes it clear that once legislators know the truth, the legislative outcome is positive. <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001FiYsdbhhlNWeBxuZcEvh3tPq2kWiYOUQ51APdcG69UD4 sJtUgemKe2FB4XU934Cmu69Z4dpUkNFtJR7T5ahci-bP5iCGjhiaMPHVZmMfZRaasGQIGOUuoIQm ku9yz0E-aYMQkbZyefVT6cmsgExm7GmCpHGTglMe0jmWM0IBd5O1bW3u-A6-UQcOuMomYSSZV2_h h5-gHF-8enqHJsKt6aeli4YuwxjGJDzvBjSWT43CAQiuKfaT0ef7LG8NWPO5xGjRXkVWmMTSuz3u RPdrmtO33bqAxFE1f8gY50zEspRRyxQet-TdQMidwLdB7pVm> READ MORE Award Nominations due October 15 Do you know a heroic Newfoundland?

Sometimes the rise of this entirely new class of communication has been accompanied by what has come to be viewed as cyber-harassment. Those engaged in cyber-harassment post negative comments and half or fabricated truths, often in a sarcastic manner, about individuals who cannot defend themselves. Members of the Newfoundland Club of America should consider social networking communication as public and, as such, understand that their comments reflect on themselves and the NCA. Members should consider carefully what and how they write and are encouraged to stress positive aspects of education rather than negative or sarcastic comments about owners, breeders, and/or Newfoundland fanciers.
