Meet the breeder
I'm Christine B., the breeder behind Growing Whiskers located in Middle Island, NY. Our dogs are bred to have top qualities that all families want in their puppies, such as compassion, patience, and love! Our dogs stole our hearts right from the start and we found ourselves wanting to get more involved. Breeding was a natural next step and we haven’t looked back since!
Q. & A. with Christine
Why did you start breeding?
When we adopted our Hava Tzu we were not provided w a lot of resources to help us find a breeder that raised puppies from newborn to 8 weeks the way we wanted. We wanted someone to provide an organic proof home, with integrative vet care. We observed our Hava Tzus great affection and caring towards all people and animals. We adopted a Havanese male and the rest is history. 💙What makes your program special?
At Growing Whiskers, we have one litter & one breeding pair at a time. Read our blogs on our website about how our integrative/organic program is unique.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Jingles, mom
Companion Cross
About Jingles
Jingles chose us to be her family and we have been blessed ever since. She has beautiful markings, (gold and white), hyper allergenic coat, gate and is truly an empath to all animals and humans. She is best friends w our kitty. She is bright and follows many complex commands. She enjoys road trips in our RV, as long as she calls “shotgun” in her special captain’s chair. She can be comical and silly, but also stare unto your eyes and silently judge you if you stop belly rubs too soon. We love Jingles with all of our hearts.
Hero, dad
Havanese
About Hero
Herotodos is a Havanese that shows stellar markings, gate, charm and energy. (Yes, those are his natural eyebrows). He is extraordinarily bright, curious and has excellent vision. He also is a talker and enjoys saying “I wuv you.” Hero shows compassion to his mate by bringing her bones and treats. He is quite an acrobat, enjoys climbing up on window sills to watch neighbors like a cat might. He also is a collector. He has been known to collect stones, pieces of string or ice cream lids (his fav). He is truly a joy to be a part of our household.
