Almost 6 Weeks Old! 1.5.23

It's a new year, and Lilac's babies are adding new "new's" to their lives every day! From playing out in the green grass on a warm, sunny day, to taking a short (carried) walk on a brisk, windy day; new toys and textures to explore; meeting our friendly family cat and our self-absorbed chickens; there's so much the wide world has to offer, and the puppies are soaking it up with great delight. We can't wait to introduce them to their new families this weekend!
Winton, male - 2 lb, 13.5 oz.
Judo, female - 3 lb, 11.3 oz.
Pom Pom, female - 2 lb, 11.9 oz.
Rusty, male - 3 lb, 7.5 oz. 
Jack, male - 4 lb, 0.7 oz.
Muffin, female - 3 lb, 7.8 oz.
Calypso, female - 2 lb, 15.8 oz.

Sight, Mobility, and other accomplishments

12.21.22: Lilac's puppies opened their eyes to a whole new way of seeing the world last week, and with this added sense they are now toddling around, learning to use the litter box, and investigating everything that comes near them with great interest. Mama Lilac doesn't spend all her time in the whelping pen with them anymore, but she's never far off, and she's still producing plenty of milk for her crew. Their teeth started breaking through this week and they've already started nosing around at mom's kibble! Meanwhile, we did decide to name them for Bluey's friends, so without further ado, please welcome the #Bluey puppies!

Pom Pom - female, 1 lb, 11.9 oz.
Despite her diminutive size, Pom Pom tries hard things because she is a "small but hardy breed"!

Rusty - male, 1 lb, 15.9 oz.
Our whole family loves the episode "Army" where Rusty helps his friend Jack gain confidence!

Muffin - female, 2 lb, 0.8 oz.
Muffin is Bluey & Bingo's cousin, lots of fun, full of energy, and not afraid to speak her mind!

​Jack is a lively fellow who is very good at running and loves condensed milk!

Picture
Judo - female, 2 lb, 1 oz.
Judo is a pup learning and growing; learning to say sorry, growing to be a good friend!

Calypso - female, 1 lb, 15.7 oz.
Anyone would love such a nurturing and understanding teacher. Calypso also loves to knit!

Winton - male, 1 lb, 12.4 oz.
​Winton helps his father sell toffee apples and is a "very obedient breed"!

Giving Thanks! 11.26.22

After having the chance to celebrate Thanksgiving over several days with family and friends this year, Lilac gave us the cherry on top of all the pie! Saturday night she bravely welcomed 7 beautiful babies, fueled by strong mother-instincts and some morsels of turkey.

There are 3 boys and 4 girls in the litter, all varying shades of apricot. I thought we should name them for the 7 dwarves, but our kids are lobbying to continue the Bluey show theme (from Cocoa's current litter). I also thought the 7 wonders of the world would make a pretty neat theme! We'll see which comes out the winner with this litter. For the time being, the pups are enjoying the warmth of their dedicated mama and busily growing fat and sleek!

What Our Clients Are Saying

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
