2 1/2 weeks-updated pictures!

Wow how time flies! The puppies are already 2 1/2 weeks old. They are keeping us all quite busy. We have been handling them daily and have recently started taking them out of their pen individually to get some one-on-one socialization time. They are all beginning to develop personalities and are starting to interact with us more and more. They are a joy for our household. Below are some updated pictures.


The boys (starting from the left)--Murry, Joey, and BradyBrady already has such beautiful dark pigmentation on his nose and lips (with some pups it take 2-4weeks to come in but with Brady it was dark by 1 week). He started out cream colored but now has some silver around his mouth and eyes. Since Havanese are notorious for changing color well into adolescence, it will be very exciting to see what color he turns out out to be.
Murry is the largest of the pups so far and is quite the sweetheart. He also started out cream but now has some champagne markings coming in on his head and ears.
Joey is the sole black and white puppy of this bunch. He is already beginning to walk all around the pen and makes sure his little voice is heard when he is hungry (but can you blame him when he has four siblings to compete with?).


The Girls--(from left to right) Lilly and Missy
Little Lilly may be small but has enough personality to make up for it. She always is the first to try and explore her surroundings . As you can see her pigment on her nose and lips has also come in quite nicely.
Missy is the first true Champagne colored puppy we have had. At birth we were excited at the prospect of her being champagne and she has not disappointed us. She also has some white markings on her head that only add to her cuteness.

Gidget's Tricks!

Havanese were originally bred to be circus dogs. They are extremely smart and catch on to new tricks easily. Gidget loves being the center of attention when she's performing. Here is a video that we put together of her doing some of her tricks.

Here is an example of some of our past puppies. All of them have gone to their forever homes.

Just sleepin away...

The puppies are two days old and are doing great. They are very good nursers and have all been gaining weight just beautifully. We have been handling them since birth so they will grow up used to people, and will be very well socialized. Here is a picture we took of them today. Enjoy!

My daughter Amy, who is an RN, has been listening to the puppies heartbeats!
