The Scottish Newfoundland Club Working Group

From pups to gramps, newfies cart, swim and learn obedience at the SNC Working Group

 

The Scottish Newfoundland Club Working Group was established in Fife around 2000. We specialise in training Newfoundland dogs to retrieve, tow and save lives in the water.


In addition, our friendly members are here to answer any questions you may have about the group and our activities. If we do not know the answer, we will not guess. We will seek out the answer, and get back to you.


If you have any questions or would like to speak with a Scottish Newfoundland Club Working Group member regarding our events, please come along to Loch Ore and join the fun


At The Scottish Newfoundland Club Working Group, the dog always comes first.



WHAT YOU NEED


A Newfoundland dog....


The dog can be of any age.

A half choke collar and web lead is best.

A floating and a sinkable toy.

Some dogs need a buoyancy aide. There are several on the market, so feel free to seek out the most suitable for your dog.


Kit yourself out with either a wetsuit or a drysuit, so long as it is thick enough to keep you warm.

Remember to get suitable footwear and gloves.

Finally, and essentially, get yourself a buoyancy jacket. You won’t be allowed into the water without one.


The Working group have some second-hand equipment that newcomers can borrow. Lochore Country Park rent suits for all sizes.
