All Home Now! 11.15.22

What a fun 8+ weeks with Buttercup's Royals! As they go off to their new families, we are confident that their flexibility, eagerness to learn, and desire to please will bring them great places in life!
Queen Victoria is now Pippa, younger sister of Dutch Haven pup Fiona in Kennebunk, ME!
Queen Elizabeth is now Skipper, younger sister of Dutch Haven pup Sailor in Phoenixville, PA!
Queen Anne is now Olive, younger sister of Dutch Haven pup Ginger in Cumberland, RI!
King Charles is settling in with his new family in Walpole, MA!
Marie Antoinette, now called Maisy by her family in Stoneham, MA!

A Quick Trip Outside! 9.26.22

We wanted to take advantage of a warm, sunny day to introduce the puppies to grass and the great outdoors. At first, they were a little unsure of the combination of new textures and smells, but they had a good time sniffing and investigating this brand new environment!

It's a Parti! September 8th!

Our beautiful Princess Buttercup was bred with the dashing Anton for this beautiful litter of white and black babies! They arrived healthy and happy during the day on Thursday September 8, with Buttercup doing a great job keeping them clean and well-fed! She is such a good mama!

The royal name theme was chosen in honor of Queen Elizabeth II of England. We learned of her passing as we were welcoming these new little ones into the world.

Firstborn is a black-and-white parti girl, with large spots of black across her back, and a lovely crown marking on her head. Birth weight 8.5 oz., today is 1 lb. 0.1 oz. Her name is Queen Victoria!

Second is an all-white girl, though she is developing some pale apricot markings on her face and ears, and more color will likely show up as her coat comes in. Birth weight 8.8 oz., today is 1 lb. 0 oz. Her name is Queen Elizabeth!

Third is a black-and-white parti boy, with large spots of black across his back and tail, and black on his eyes and ears. Birth weight 9.1 oz., today is 1 lb. 1.5 oz. His name is King Charles!

Fourth is a black-and-white parti girl, with only two spots of black near her tail, and a cute crown marking. Birth weight 8.1 oz., today is 14.5 oz. Her name is Queen Anne!
​
Fifth is a black-and-white parti girl, with a couple of large black spots on her back, and one small spot. Her face has a lovely mask marking! Birth weight 8.7 oz., today is 15.0 oz. Her name is Marie Antoinette! (I like that it includes a nod to her parentage through Anton)

Do you want the backstory?
Buttercup very sneakily went into heat during our busy fourth of July weekend, and we just barely managed to get her scheduled with the stud! Fortunately Anton was up to the task! Our early ultrasound showed that she was successfully carrying (drumroll...) only 2 puppies. We were a little disappointed that we could not see more, but remained hopeful for a bonus puppy as we watched Buttercup grow very round! Imagine our surprise and delight to welcome not 3, not 4, but 5 lovely little puppies! These little ones are receiving the best of care and attention from all of us!

What Our Clients Are Saying

Picture
Having been Lab lovers for 50 years, our decision to have a small dog was not easy. Little did we know that Lucy would waltz into our lives and bring such joy, that it is difficult to imagine life without her. At 5 months she is a bundle of energy, loves people and dogs, and is intensely curious about everything, except big, noisy trucks. Lucy's transition to our home was made easy due to the care she received by Lydia of Dutch Haven Dogs. Murphy, the stuffed dog with a beating heart, came with Lucy, and can still be found each morning cuddled underneath her. Lucy has slept through the night all but the first 2 nights with us. The written routine given to us helped to get us through those first unknown weeks. Included in the pages of information given to us were tips about personality, behavior, and care. I remember Lydia telling us when we came to get Lucy, that she massaged the puppies' paws and ears daily so that they were used to being touched. To this day, it is part of my "loving" routine. And we do love her so very much. Fondly, Sandy, Kittery, ME

​We cannot say enough wonderful things about Dutch Haven dogs. Our pup has been such a delight for the short few months we’ve had her. Everything about this process was amazing. Communication, answering questions, supplies, lists. Not to mention the love and care these pups get before we get to bring them home. My girl is an angel, she loves people. She’s friendly, she’s sweet. I couldn’t be happier. ~Heather, Eliot, ME

I am forever grateful to Dutch Haven Dogs for uniting me with my Gemma (Santa Clara) back in 2015. From our first conversation, I knew Dutch Haven not only had the knowledge of the Cockapoo breed, but also had the passion for what they do. They raise their pups surrounded by children who nurture them with all the love and cuddles! My Gemma is the smartest, most loyal dog, and she remains by my side as my best friend. Thank you Dutch Haven for breeding dogs with good health, temperment, and beauty. Huge shout out to you from us in CT!!! Christie, North Haven, CT

Getting my dog from Dutch Haven was the best experience I could imagine. We got Dublin 6 years ago and I still think of the first time I contacted Dutch Haven to picking him out to bringing him home. The process was seamless. I happily waited 9 months for my puppy knowing he was coming from a loving, healthy family breeder. We were kept updated about our place on the waitlist, and photos were shared once our litter was born. My dog is very healthy and happy and I credit a lot of that to Dutch Haven being so reputable and caring of their dogs. When I get another dog, it will be from Dutch Haven! Thank you and hello from Dublin! Kristin, Dover, NH
