Darlah What a huge difference last week to this week. They climb. They rollover and they full out play with each other. It is wonderful to watch. Videos coming shortly.
Unfortunately starting in the New Year, our costs will go up. Please contact nathan for updated costs.
The picnic date took place on August 17, 2019 from 12pm to 5pm at Yvonne's place in Brighton. Check out the details here. Photos from the 2019 picnic can be found here. Yvonne's place is NEXT DOOR to her old place. I will try to put a havanese flag out front. Hope you can join us. Directions are here. The house # is 25. There is no picnic in 2020 due to COVID but hopefully in 2021. Stay Tuned!

You can find the gallery on Nami's blog today.
It is interesting to see the dynamics of this 3 crew. As they are so close in age, you do not see the development changes once they are together. The younger ones try the things the older ones do and they will eventually achieve what they do as if they are the same age.
There was a stage when they were separate that you could see the difference in age. You can't any longer. They have achieved cohesiveness and treat each other as siblings. It's a LOT of work with 16. Lots of cleanup. Lots of laundry - feeding is something else especially by yourself. But large groups do make better pups as they have many to learn from and they learn how to deal with others that want to play or don't. They have many to learn how to relate to each other. For me, I find the work insane. At this stage I am going from 7am till 11pm - no tv unless I am grooming and that's a half watch or a 1 hour break that I pay for by having to stay up later to get everything done. But the end result is wonderful.
I wash from morning till after I go to bed when Dennis continues.
I can't wait till true spring. Pups going outside. Fun will come - okay it is already here but as we go it evolves. You will enjoy!

Gallery can be found on Willows blog today.
Today we brought the puppy pads further away from their sleeping area. We will continue to do that till we do not need the extras. Pups are doing rather well and they seem to be able to walk on the flooring quite well. I can't wait to see them running. That is when Nathan shines as he does the running with the pups. It is quite funny at first. He calls it broken field running at 1st. It is also interesting tro see who runs the entire way. He cuts in etc. You learn a great deal about their personality.
Everyone plays as if they are one litter. It is WONDERFUL!

Here is the gallery for all 3 litters.
All 3 litters are together. As I am typing, they are actually upstairs playing for the 3rd time. As it is impossible to do galleries separate now, we will update the galleries in one blog. For instance today the galleries will be in Hallies blog. Tomorrow in Willows and the next day in Nami's unless you can figure out a better way of doing it.
I will post 1 photo in each blog of a puppy from that particular litter and the videos will be linked in all blogs and the videos will be of all together.
I know this will make it hard. I actually thought of literally no photos in the other 2 blogs except on that blogs turn but you may not like that. Even a description of what each litter is not relevant any longer, when combined.
So, I will put this explanation here. In Willow's blog, I will put a description of what they did today.
On Nami's I will just put a photo with a very short blurb.
Let me know if that is doable for you. I can't figure out how else to do it.

Not sure if I will have much gallery or videos today as I am out but hopefully these individual photos will suffice. They are all beauties.
Here is the gallery of their 1st upstairs, individual shots - 2 of each and first food.
