We Have Puppies!

Leave a Comment

It has been over five months since I’ve had tiny paws padding around my house so I am excited!

Sienna whelped 7 beautiful (but tiny) babies last night. She was four days early which is rare in dogs. But I am certain because I had her progesterone tested twice and the breeding was by artificial insemination. My boy Tiger is the sire.

This breeding combines multiple lines and pedigrees that I love and respect. My first champion, Lily, is the great grandmother! And my boy Tiger, who lives nearby, is the sire. Suffice it to say I can’t wait to see how these kids develop.

The Rewards of Breeding

Leave a Comment

Breeding dogs is hard work. A LOT of hard work!! It is a full time job…not a hobby.

But the rewards far outweigh the burdens.

One of the rewards is the friendships I have with my puppy owners. Daily my inbox is full of notes, photos and updates on what they are doing.

This week my “Summer Weather” litter enjoyed their 3rd birthday. They are out Luna and of  These are some photos their families sent me to celebrate!

This is Rainbow. She lives in Washington DC and just got a birthday groom! I love her scarf!

This family has three of my Havanese! Birthday girl, Guillia, is in the front. At right is Valentina and at left is Rosie. Their owner said they are frowning because she just arrived to pick them up from the groomer.

This is Wrigley! In the background is his roommate, the pretty cat. I think what Tasha is thinking here is, “You may be higher than me but I have the couch!”

A recent study offers some further insights. The terminology is a bit scientific but the information, once you wade thru it, is cause for caution!

Porsche Is Available!

Leave a Comment

Note: Porsche has a new home now, in Chicago!

Our sweet puppies from our sports car litter are now 2 1/2 months old! I have made my decision as to who to reserve for show and am now looking for a home for Porsche.

As you can see, he is tri-color…sable brown, black and white. He is extremely outgoing and friendly. Greets everyone he meets with his tail wagging like a windshield wiper! He plays well with our other puppies and adult dogs and is doing great with peeing on a pee pad! He will be great with children and other pets.

Porsche has had two of his DHPP vaccine boosters, is totally dewormed and is registered with AKC. Both his parents have passed all health tests recommended for Havanese and results are posted on the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals website.His sire is a Gold Grand Champion and his dam is a Champion…just a few points shy of Grand Champion!

Send me a note if you’d like to hear more about him.

We Have Puppies!! Two need homes

Sunshine whelped 3 beautiful puppies on February 20. They will be 8 weeks old tomorrow. Time flies when you have puppies! Anyway, we are looking for homes for the two boys, Porsche and Beemer. Puppies are fat and healthy and playing with each other, their mom and their roomates!

This is Beemer. He is a gold sable parti and has amazing eyes. He is also a love bug!

This is little Mercedes. She is currently reserved for the show circuit…assuming she gets to standard.

This is Porche. He loves to sit on my lap. he is a dark sable parti.
