PNW Havanese

04/26/2025

We have 3 puppies left after puppy picks this weekend. 2 boys and 1 girl. Nacho (orange), Colby (yellow) and Feta (Maroon). They will be ready to go May 11th just in time for Mother’s Day.

Puppy picks have begun. Brie (white collar) and Cheddar (blue) will be staying in our program as potential future puppy parents. We will be looking for Guardian homes. The cute Swiss (aqua) has found his family. And Pepper Jack (green) found his people too. He was so relieved that he just crashed and fell asleep in my arms afterwards. More picks coming tomorrow.

Meet the Breed: Havanese

Havanese, the only dog breed native to Cuba, are cheerful little dogs with a spring in their step and a gleam in their big, brown eyes.

Why do you love the breed?

Someone (Grey collar) figured out how to climb out of his whelping box so he could have more one on one time with mom. I guess when you are 1 of 8 siblings you have to do what you have to do. Time to setup their toddler room.

According to Cherry’s new family, she had a great first day with them in her new Washington home. Doesn’t she look so cute in her harness. Pecan left this last weekend also to live on a horse farm. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a little bit jealous. Haha. I’m so happy when all the puppies go to such great homes.

Pouring rain this weekend did not stop the handsome Oreo from getting to his new mom. He’s now being called Archie, for his cute brown arched eye brows (I love it). He’s already making himself at home, eating, napping, playing and even using his potty pads. His new family texted me “Thank you so much for raising a good boy.” We know he is going to be spoiled in his new home and hopefully we’ll have more updates on his new adventures.

Godiva’s new family flew from Montana to come pick her up. We met at PDX and I could tell right away that they were smitten with her. Apparently their other dog already loves her too. I love it when everyone is happy.

It’s Nora’s birthday. 🎉 She’s celebrating with her 8 beautiful puppies. She is such a wonderful mother. So devoted to them. We are very blessed to be working with Hoodview Havanese and to have this opportunity to whelp and raise these gorgeous babies. This is her last litter. After this she will be spayed and retired to spend the rest of her days spoiled with her Guardian family (furever family).

Tongue out Tuesday. 😂

Eyes are starting to open. These puppies are going to get more adorable if that’s even possible. I love this stage as ears and eyes start opening then they try to start walking.

Enjoy these rare sunny Oregon spring days before the rain returns. Even the chickies had to get in on the fun.

Happy Tongue out Tuesday from Pecan.

Today was puppy pick day. After multiple video chats and in person visits, everyone got picked except beautiful Miss Godiva. She is confident and outgoing. She loves attention but doesn’t need it all the time. She’s has her occasional independent moments. Did I mention she’s beautiful and stunning?

Bella’s pups are 6 weeks old. Only 2 more weeks and they’ll be off to their next adventures. This weekend is puppy picks. Then Friday they go in for their vet checkup. Then of course as much exposures and socializing as we can fit in during these next couple weeks (car rides, trip to the feed store, outside play, baths, playtime with other dogs, etc).

8 little Havanese puppies! Nora was a champ and did a great job. I’ll post individual pictures later after everyone gets a chance to rest.
