For more than 25 years, our family has been dedicated to raising exceptional dogs. My husband, who practiced veterinary medicine for 42 years, and I have bred Labrador Retrievers, Bullmastiffs, and Labradoodles before ultimately focusing on the wonderful Havanese breed.
Throughout the years, we have proudly supported organizations such as the Canadian National Institute for the Blind and Service Dogs for Ontario. We have also donated puppies to families with special needs, where many have gone on to successfully fulfill important roles in enhancing the wellbeing and quality of life of their owners.
We are committed to raising each litter in a loving home environment, with a strong emphasis on soundness, structure, temperament, and personality. All of our breeding dogs are placed in homes, where they receive love and care from their families.
Every litter is raised in our homes and is well socialized from an early age, including regular interaction with our grandchildren/children. Before joining their forever families, each puppy receives abundant love, attention, and care, helping them develop into confident and well-adjusted companions.
For more information, please contact us. We would be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Exercise and Activity
Although energetic, Havanese do not require intense exercise. Most are happy with:

Their intelligence makes them successful in activities such as obedience, trick training, and agility.
Grooming Needs
The breed’s coat requires some care:

Many pet owners keep their Havanese in a shorter “puppy cut” to reduce grooming demands.
