8 Weeks Old - "Gotcha Day" is Here!

Gonna miss you guys! You all carry the same easy-going nature as your mama & have been a joy to raise.
Here’s my parting advice, Lassie, Gus, Shawn, Woody, & Juliet: 
~ Many a treat can be had with your adoring gaze. 
~ Drop your bum to the ground and look up at your new family, wide-eyed — yes, work those dark, shiny, huge eyes! 
~ When lifted up, lean in to give under-chin kisses. 
~ When sleepy, start snoozing while on a lap. 
~ Pounce through leaf piles
~ Chase all moving toys
~ Observe & submit to your older siblings who were established in your home before you
~ Roll over and show that belly of yours often
~ Lastly, try to limit mouthiness to your *own toys. 
Check back in with me often, #PsychPups of #DutchHavenDogs, for more tips and training refreshers.
Lassie - going home to Newton, MA!
Gus - his new home is on Long Island, NY!
Woody - joining his new family in Norwell, MA!
Juliet - going home to Cumberland, RI!
Shawn - his new home is in Newmarket, NH!

5 Weeks Old - Sleep, Play, Sleep, Eat, Sleep, Learn...Repeat!

3 Weeks and counting! September 11

Princess’ Psyche Puppies turned 3 weeks on Thursday, and as you can tell from the pictures, they’ve grown a lot and gotten much fluffier. They are also toddling around, even working their way over the edges of their bumper bed to go potty on their alfalfa pellets — not all the time, but often! Their legs seem a little too long for them to achieve an intentional position, so steps are slow and wobbly and several few steps ends in a tumble!

A Warm Welcome! August 19

UPDATE 9.6.21
Princess welcomed six beautiful apricot puppies the evening of Thursday, August 19, giving birth with ease in just two short hours! The five boys and their one sweet sister all looked great and were within just 1 ounce in weight of each other! Sadly, at four days old, one of the pups faded and our best efforts combined with veterinary consultation weren't able to save him. We are heartbroken, as every life is precious, and we always do our best to protect and provide for the pups entrusted into our care. We are continuing to support Princess as she keeps her pups well-fed, warm, and clean, and are happy to report that the little family is thriving.


The unequal gender breakdown had the name theme debate going even stronger than usual in our house, but we finally decided to name these pups for the TV show Psyche - a favorite with our teens! Shawn, Gus, Lassie, Woody, and Juliet have opened their eyes and are starting to make some moves, so you can look for new photos of them by the end of this week!

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
