Introducing our Blues Legends Litter  (Potter and Maxi’s Pups) with names, weights and new photos.

All are doing quite well. I spent time with each puppy handling their paws and ears and rubbing their bellies. They also had their first nail trim. Lots of stretching and yawning going on and they are moving around like a herd of little guinea pigs!

This is when the fun begins.

We had a terrific storm here in southwest Florida last night but they never seemed to notice.

Do Havanese Like Children? A Video

Leave a Comment

You betcha!!!

It is alsmost as if a child is another puppy, these Havanese are so smitten. And gentle.

Now, as young puppies…under one year…like all puppies, Havanese are exuberant. And in this state, their sharp little teeth might find the wrong “toy.” For that reason always, always supervise your puppy/toddler play. Once a puppy reaches a year, it will be different…for the puppy that is. Still, toddlers can also display inappropriate play (pulling an ear or a tail or a fistful of fur) and must be supervised until 5 years old or so.

And…A Video of Lily’s Pups at 2 weeks old!

Such beautiful puppies! Can’t wait to get them out and about. At Two weeks old these puppies are just beginning to explore their world beyond their mother. They are aware of other puppies in the whelping box. They make wonderful little sounds. Since they are still in my bedroom, these are sounds I go to sleep with each night. It is heavenly!

Will work in individual photos in a few days.

This is when the fun begins! Puppies are 2 weeks old now, making sometimes sweet coos, sometimes puppy challenge growls and wobbling around on their little legs. Noses are black now as are some of the pads on their feet. Soon their eyes will open and a few days after that the fog will clear and they will be able to see their siblings and their Mama…and me!…for the first time.

I took this video of Maxi’s litter yesterday.

Hoping to catch a video of Lily’s pups later today. Stay tuned!

 

 

Puppies are almost 10 weeks old!

Well I don’t have any photos of Myrtle or Maple because they have gone to their forever homes!

But here are some updates on the others. First the boys….

This is Gumbo, who is still looking for a forever home. Isn’t he handsome? Gumbo has a delightful disposition, right in the middle temperament wise. He will have a nice silky coat and will weigh about 12-14 pounds full grown.

Gumbo likes playing in the grass.

Our parting shot of Gumbo!
And this is Coco. Coco is also looking for his forever home. He is a chocolate parti, which is rare in the Havanese world. He will have a gorgeous coat, brown eyes and a brown nose! Coco is a very, very sweet boy. Quite laid back and calm. He wants to be someone’s little shadow and loves to have his tummy rubbed!

Here are Sabol (front), Coco (middle) , and my new show puppy, Maggie. (Yep, I love that name!)
This is Sabol. He’s the little one I bottle fed for five weeks but now is doing superbly. Sabol is a sable Parti. He will be on the smaller side for a boy. Probably 9 to 11 pounds. He loves, loves, loves to play. He’s a little higher on the energy scale but has no problem sitting on my lap for a few special pets. Sabol is also still available.

Sabol again.

And now for the pups waiting for their families to pick them up:

This is Holly. She is going to live in Virginia with Amanda, Bhal and Seamus, one of my puppies from last summer’s litter.

Love Holly’s eyes!
This is Mango. She is turning out to be a very sweet little girl. Mango will be going to live with Lynette,  Jim and their 3 year old Havanese, MiJa. They are right nearby in Sarasota, Florida.

And this is Maggie. From the front she looks just like Gumbo but has a little more white on her back. Maggie is going to live in New York city with Liz, Kevin and their two very excited little girls!
