I have looked everywhere, petfinder, newspaper and my vet. Our old boy died about 1 year ago (he was 11 years old) and we miss him a lot. I do not like puppies and I am interested in just getting an older - 3 to 6 year old to keep her eye on us. I will not get any other kind of dog, but a Newfie. Please if you can help me find a spayed OR neutered (Ozzie used to show dominance over our boys and their friends - THEY thought it was funny). So I thought a female won't have this problem. I don't want to breed, just give a home to a wonderful dog. We have 5 children and the youngest is used to being pushed around by BIG dogs.

sometimes rescues don't have anything available. check to see if you can get put on a waiting list at a newfie rescue. or check with the breeders around you to see if they are going to retire one of their dogs, also if they have a dog they were planning on breeding but once it got old enough the conformation was wrong so they are no longer going to breed it.

Get online and try a Newfie rescue. Contact some Newfie breeders. I'm a Lhasa breeder, and often I'll have a spayed/neutered retired show champion looking for a "forever home". And really, what more could you want? A housebroken, lead-trained spayed dog. Try some breeders, or ask a rescue organization for a referral. Good luck.

Try a rescue organization- it is mandatory for them to neuter/spay and it is a good place to find an older dog.

Visit newfdog.org. We have a good rescue group that places mostly adults..all spayed and neutered. They can also direct you to the local regional club that also has a rescue or may know of a NEwf that fits the bill.
Good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
