Maxi’s puppies are 5 days old now and growing by leaps and bounds. Even the little man I have been tube feeding and bottle feeding is gaining nicely. He still can’t seem to latch onto Maxi’s nipples. Not sure why. Doesn’t appear to have any impediments or a cleft palate so we’ll just have to wait and see. One theory is that he was one of the later pups to be conceived and therefore is younger than the others. Good news is that Maxi is very attentive to him. She she must think he’s worth keeping around!

Enjoy!

 out, from the x-rays, how many puppies she’s going to whelp…most likely this Saturday.

I am happy to report that Willow is now Winifred (aka Winnie) and living with a wonderful family in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

I know she will love it there~!

In another part of the country (Virginia) Seamus is settling right in! Here is the note I received today from his “Step Mom.”

Hi Jacqui!

Bhal, Amanda, & Seamus.

Here are some of the gazillion photos they sent!

He is such a happy puppy!

I love my families!!!

One of the best things about being a breeder is hearing back from your families with photos and updates on the fur-kids.  I thought I’d share a few with you all.

Lily (no relation to my girl Lily) is one of my pups from Maxi’s New Years Eve litter. She lives in Vermont in the summer and Naples in the winter. What a lucky girl!! Here are some recent photos and a note her family sent.

“Lily is doing wonderfully. She is a big girl now probably 13 and a half pounds. Not at all fat, just big. She loves everyone and likes to play with other small dogs, there is another havanese puppy in the area and we are going to get them together. I give her a bath weekly and have started to scissor cut her rather than going to a groomer since they all just poodle cut them which I don’t want. Hope all of your other puppies are doing well.  Thank you for such a wonderful dog.” Susan

“Hi Jacqui,

Wanted to let you know that Charlie was neutered yesterday.  He’s doing just fine but will need to dial back the rough and tumbled activities he and the cat engage in all day long.  This will be hard for all of us.

Here are a few pictures of Charlie in his summer cut…too hot here for long hair in this Georgia heat.  He is an absolutely wonderful little guy and we adore him. 

Love following your posts about the new pups.”

“Thought you would like to see how wonderful you made our life with this adorable one!”Judi  & Jim

“Hi Jacqui,

I’m glad the puppies are here and healthy.  Mi’ja, formerly Dillon, is doing just fine.  We were just at the vet this morning for her rabies shot, and she is 4.5 lbs, so she will likely end up quite small.  Our vet wants to let her go thru one heat before she is spayed, so that may not happen for awhile.  We’ve been through 6 weeks of puppy obedience, and while she understands everything, she is still very easily distracted.  She doesn’t want to let anyone go by without dancing and waving and wagging and virtually shouting “Pet me! Pet me!”  Here’s our latest picture.  I love her ears – they are so expressive.”

Take care,
Ann
