I found Cristi from Havareese Havanese to be an excellent breeder. Knowledgeable, professional and extremely dedicated to her litter and her clients. My puppy came home and was already used to all kinds of household noises. She was sleeping through the whole night in her crate within 2 days. My puppy was given a Great start by Cristi.
