Havanese Jay Leaves Talemaker Havanese

Well, all good things come to an end and we will be waiting for the next visit. These past few months, we have had some truly outstanding Havanese and non-Havanese.

Jay's a funny guy. He just loves everyone. It's that fun guy craziness that adds an element of fun to this place. They also help others find their fun. Each dog has their role when in a pack and we always help that along.

We also have Miss Maggie and her grand daughter visiting us. Penny has been finding fun in puppy play. Miss Maggie is enjoying Nathan and his taking her for errands. Her best time is when the pack lays down to watch tv, that's when she makes sure she cuddles right in.

Penny was born here so when Nathan says, puppy, puppy, puppies - well she reacts bigtime. It's a riot to watch. They do remember.

The crew has been running up a storm inside and outside only for short spurts as it has been heavily raining. Check out today's photos. Grooming was done early today. Shoshi was washed and so was Jay and now it is Cesar's turn as he will be going home in the early morning and Nathan will be out.

I best get started so we can all snuggle and watch TV. :-)

Fast Havanese Update

WeaverSorry, I am still sick. Hoping it goes any day now but it's holding on.

No photos today. It's just been very busy and I am not up to it but I will make up for it tomorrow, I promise.

Weaver is one of our visitors. He really likes Charlie, one of our other visitors.

He likes the rest but they always connect with one more than another the first few days and then they open up more of the playing field. He really likes Nathan as his human.

Oh, he likes me too but he's over the top with Nathan. It might be that Nathan lays on the floor with them and I can't do that feeling like I do.

I know..excuses.... 

Let's talk about the rest of the gang. Jay is visiting and is totally smitten with Treasure. He really enjoys her company as much as he can. It's funny as it was an instant thing as soon as he arrived. Treasure loves them all though. Jay has really started to find his fun here and listens ever so well when called or you say no. You don't even have to say it loud.

Jasper is also visiting and he reminds me a little of his grandma Risa, a little of mom, Wasabi, and a little of his dad, Kat. He's such a happy go lucky puppy, loving all. He likes the guys and the gals - just play and all is right in his world. He also has a wonderful (Wasabi texture) coat that has been well maintained and allowed to grow. You know how much we love long coats here.

Then we have Charlie. He's a master jumper. It doesn't matter who is in that recliner, he's up there in the midst of them. We are teaching him not to pounce on your chest. With me being sick, it sort of knocks the wind out of me. But he's learning and we are doing it in a positive way. Charlie loves all the dawgs - a happy go lucky guy.

We mix it up on who walks with whom and they all adore their walks. They love retrieve.

Usually we don't have so many boys at once but we are enjoying the interactions and the hugs and the kisses and everything. More tomorrow when I feel better.

Havanese Twins?

Jay & SydneyBoth of these guys are boarding with us and it's like a double take to see them together. They aren't even from the same breeder. It's a riot.

Well the Jay has arrived and he loves his Treasure. He gravitated towards her like...well let's just say he's in love but he is spreading the love playing with Tia and Sydney as well and even at times with Shoshi.

Jay was shy for about 5 minutes figuring out who everyone was and he hasn't stopped playing since.

I am still sick with the flu but Nathan managed to get a few shots. Check them out. Our slide shows are always found on this page. You can find the newest on top to the oldest.

Tia, Sydney, Jay and Treasure think the outside is their playground. Outside, in, outside, in, outside, in...well you get the point. That means today Nathan is doing the same. Me, I am trying to stay inside and get over whatever I have.

You should see this place at feeding time. Plate goes down, woof it's gone. I think that's due to burning energy Havanese style. Nothing like pups.

If you have a chance, check out our 2 pregnant gals and their expanding tummies.
