Newf Ambassador Program Seeks Recruits rescue dog <http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs049/1101851326832/img/128.jpg> The NCA Newf Ambassador Program is designed to provide a knowledgeable and local person to talk with anyone who wants to learn more about Newfoundlands. NCA Newf Ambassadors help potential owners to determine if a Newfoundland might be the right dog for them, as well as people who currently own Newfoundlands and are interested in some additional help (for example, training, grooming, becoming involved with water or draft training, or simply having fun with their dogs). Newf Ambassadors are experienced in and knowledgeable about the breed, the regional clubs and NCA, and are willing to spend time meeting with people face to face and providing an introduction to their dogs, when appropriate. <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=00166IlyPNrC1fAO0ROVMvMTexfVNtd_euBobpgKnAAFzjw h78tS2KCp-ILXsbzhegc5HoA1cX0avX3ykjfV_nWMzXOzuRh1NawwQcdiFnWTvq6TfzzGZsNFDXY BkZ9pj-O4iurrkA9bm8=> Learn more and find out how you can help.

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.
