Havanese Picnic
We had our 2019 Havanese picnic.
On Saturday, August 17th, 2019, from 12noon until 5pm we will have another year of havanese bliss. Although I was barely awake, I did manage to snap a few photos one of the years. Check out the 2013 picnic. All are unedited. With new pups, well it's all I could muster. Here are the 2019 photos.
Way back when we used to do the picnics in our backyard. One year when it rained we did it half inside and out with popup tents but we no longer can do this as too many people come to fit into our yard.
Plus Yvonne has the PERFECT yard for it and these days it is a combined effort with the Talemaker families coming and Yvonne's Chicadoro puppy people coming. We also invite anyone who has a Havanese to join us.
We had a great crew but not everyone was in the photo but thanks to Steven for clicking this group shot. We hope to do another one next year before people leave.
