Havanese Puppies Eyes are Opening!

One of Marli’s puppies has her eyes open now and a second is almost there. Here are three photos I took this morning.

Girl #1 has her eyes open! She, like her siblings, is moving around quite well in the whelping box. She is black and tan with white markings on her paws, her chin and her chest. The tan is showing up on her rump and her legs. She also appears to have some lightening on her eyebrows. At 13 days old she weighs 13.4 ounces. This puts her right on a par with Maxi’s pups at the same age.

Girl #2 still has her eyes completely closed. But she is a bit smaller than her sisters so this is no surprise. She, too, is moving around nicely. She is black with white markings…no tan in her coloring at this point. She weighs 11.4 ounces.

And, you can’t see it from this photo but girl #3 has slight openings in her eyes. She weighs 12.5 ounces, is moving around well and is black and tan with white markings.

Good Morning Havanese Puppies!

I love waking up these days!

I love watching the puppies even more…especially after they have eaten, the pen is clean and they start their day of play.

Tossing and rolling

They love these plastic rings. Now that they are bigger, I can hang them in their pen.

They have been using the litter pans for almost two weeks now.

Play, play, play

Our Havanese Puppies are Five Weeks Old

Our puppies had their first taste of Florida sunshine yesterday. It has been a cold winter, even down here, so they haven’t been outside until now. Enjoy their romps on this video.

Also, I came to the shocking realization yesterday that my individual photos are a little off! Puppy boy 1 and 2 were the same puppy!!! I’m really seeing a lot of black and white and it is beginning to affect my brain. That’s my excuse anyway.

So, I corrected the photos of Puppy #2.

And, I weighed the puppies just to see how they compare and here are the results:

Puppy boy #1: 1# 14 oz.
Puppy boy #2: 1# 14 oz. (this is not a mistake. I checked it three times! LOL)
Puppy girl #3: 1# 10 oz.
Puppy girl #4: 2# 2 oz.
Puppy girl #5: 1# 15oz.
Puppy girl #7: 1# 15 oz.
Puppy boy #8: 2# 4 oz.
Puppy girl #9: 2# 8 oz.

Other new happenings:

Puppies still sleep a lot. It does not appear that there is any stress here at all!

They look like spokes of a wheel when they eat. This is kibble soaked in water overnight. They love it!

More sleeping!

Havanese Boy Puppy #2

If you look closely, you might appreciate that, on my former post, puppy #1 and puppy #2, as pictured originally, are actually the same puppy. So, I have now edited my post, and removed the erroneous photos, to reflect the real puppy #2. He is, by all marks, a sweetie. I hope he forgives me for this oversight!!!

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!

Puppy 4 is developing some nice brown markings!

Getting so strong!

Eyes wide open!

Telling secrets?

Puppy play is beginning to take form.

They can get to their milk station much faster now.

I love it when their eyes open!!!
