Double Take

Socks was looking for a playmate since Splash went home. He found a mirror buddy that had potential but just not nearly as much fun as the real thing. He won't be too lonesome though as he has Jinx and big sister Cocoa to play with until it's his turn to go home as soon as his family returns from holidays.

Spring fun

A warm sunny spring day means a perfect afternoon for playtime in the snow. Socks and Splash needed a long nap after playing tag around the yard.

Off on an adventure

Splash will be zipping off to the West coast in just a few days where his new owner eagerly awaits his arrival. His registered name is "Mimosa's Take a Bow" with a call name of "Oscar". A pair of Himalayan Persian cats makes his new owner well prepared for grooming a Havanese. Interestingly, 4 of our 5 puppies will have some feline brothers and sisters at their new homes.

Bedtime

Puppies have been going in and out of a large crate for several weeks already. During these past few weeks, that extended to sleeping in a smaller crate at night, sometimes with a sibling and other times alone. When taken out to potty right before bedtime, puppies are sleeping about 7 hours at night. Right now, Socks and Splash alternate, one night together, and the next night alone.

No problem

Stairs are no problem any more...going up anyway. Going down is alot tougher.

Ding Dong

The puppies are picking up many lessons from copying the older dogs. All our Havanese are bell trained to ring a bell at the door when they need/want to go out. From watching and following Momma Jinx, Auntie Cricket and big sister Cocoa, the puppies are learning this too. Tonight Splash rang the bell on his own for the very first time to ask to go out to potty. Clever boy.
