The “Naughty n’ Nice’ Litter of 9 puppies was born early in the morning Dec, 17th 2013. Dam: GCH Artisan’s Symphony in Pink ‘Sadie’. Sire: GCH HRQ’s Guess Who’s in Trouble JH OA OAJ ‘Havoc’.
Sadie stopped eating Monday, December 16th and even refused Bacon, so we knew something was up. A temperature check showed that her temperature was dropping. Those are her usual two big indicators of impending labor. We took her to the vet, and instead of the previous ultrasound’s estimate of 6 puppies, we had an X-ray estimate of 8-9. Wow!
The first boy, Rascal was born at 2:35AM on Tuesday, December 17th. At about 9AM, there was a long pause and no contractions with 3 puppies left, so we took Sadie to the vet for a little bit of oxytocin to help her get the last 3 out. The vet thought she might need a caesarian for the last puppy, but the last girl arrived within 5 minutes of her deadline. In total, Sadie whelped 5 boys and 4 girls for a grand total of 9! puppies.
In birth order: Rascal (Light Blue Boy), Rowdy (Red Boy), Angel (Pink Girl), Darling (Magenta Girl), Dandy (Dark Green Boy), Minx (Black girl), Mischief (Light Green boy), Button (Yellow Boy), Scamp (Purple Girl).
Momma and babies look fine. Here’s their first family photo.
Havoc and Sadie are so proud.
We confirmed Sadie’s pregnancy today! We expect this litter to be born on or around December 19th with puppies able to go home February 19th. We expect beauty, brains and lots of agility ability out of these future vizzies. We are still taking applications for this litter. Performance and non-performance homes welcome.
We’re happy to announce that Sadie, GCH Artisan’s Symphony in Pink,
Sadie
will be bred this week to GCH HRQ Guess Who’s in Trouble, JH, OA, OAJ, ‘Havoc’, a beautiful champion boy in sunny California.

His Pedigree.
Pedigree of the Sadie Havoc Puppies.
Havoc has multiple group placements, and was in the top 10 vizslas in the country for most of 2013. He’s also a fantastic field dog, great in the agility ring and proven producer of champions. We’re very excited about this pairing and are taking applications. Puppies will be born the 3rd week of December 2013 and will be able to go home mid-February 2014.
