Havanese Haven
Havanese Puppies See the World!
Our puppies are 17 days old now and their eyes are pretty much open. No, they cannot focus yet but they can see shadows which has to be exciting. Even more exciting is that their little legs are getting strong enough that they can move about the whelping box very well. Here are some photos … you’ll be amazed how much they’ve grown!

Havanese puppies – 10 days old
Here are some photos of our individual puppies. Their noses are mostly black now but their eyes are still closed. Next time I’ll use my camera. I’m not too happy with the quality of my phone photos.

Havanese Puppies Coming!
I bred my Havanese girl, Maxi, to my friend Denise’s boy, Dino. He is a wonderful little guy and I am sure they will have some beautiful Havanese puppies with very “bouncy” personalities. Maxi is a real snuggle bug and my kitchen shadow. We will probably see mostly black and white puppies as both parents have what is called black parti coats.
This Havanese litter will be born in Florida, some time around New Year’s Day. The puppies will be ready for their forever homes in early March.
Here are some photos of the parents.

This is Aloha
Aloha is the last puppy to be placed. Actually, she was the first but, sadly, the family had to return her because their little boy evidently has super-sensitive allergies. Even Havanese can cause reactions in some very sensitive people. I feel so bad for the parents because they are going back home with three extremely saddened children. Surely one of the more difficult times for them as parents. I can’t imagine anything much worse.
Anyway, Aloha is a sweet, confident and peppy little girl. She (of course) loves children and responds well to adults as well. She scored very well in our puppy personality assessment and will make an ideal pet for just about anyone.
Here are some photos of Aloha and you can see more earlier on in this blog.
