Tango whelped 6 beautiful puppies yesterday…just one hour after her due date! Sire is Harley, a black and white Grand Champion from Ohio. Her pre-labor lasted just 5 hours and once the puppies decided to come out, they did it in record time. All six were born in a span of one hour, 10 minutes. That is a record for Carneys Haven! Stay tuned for further photos and videos.
Handsome Harley loved and shown by my friend Marcy Skirvin.

Tango being goofy!It has been a while since we have had puppies. And, when it rains, it pours!!
In 10 days, Tango and Harley are due (December 15). Next Tuesday Tango will have an xray to determine how many pups she is carrying. She is getting quite plump!!
And, Meri and Phantom are due just four days later on December 19. Her X-rays scheduled for next Thursday.
Meri and Phantom goofing off at the Havanese National Specialty 2018 near Chicago.

Left to right: Sandy, Shades, Diver and FlipFlop
Eyes are open now and they are really moving around, playing with each other and gnawing on my fingers. Today they will all get pedicures! Their sharp little nails are tough on Fern’s belly. 
This is Shades. He is a dark sable with some cream on his chest. A very mellow fellow!
This is Diver. He is black with a bit of white on his two front paws, more white on the back ones and a white goatee which you can barely see.
Fern’s puppies are growing like crazy! Their eyes are almost open. And they are moving around, making sweet puppy growls and tussling with each other. Here are their photos with their names…that my grandson suggested!
Shades again.
Here you can see one of Diver’s white back paws.
This is Sandy. He is lighter than it shows in the photo. He has white on his front paws and a white chest.
Sweet Sandy.
And this is Flip-Flop. The only girl and the biggest of the bunch though that is likely to change. You can see her pink nose is beginning to darken and her eyes are almost open.
