I'm Misty C., the breeder behind Havenkennels located in Selma, NC. I breed Maltese and Bichon Frise poodle. I prioritize choosing high-quality bloodlines and ensuring the health of my dogs and puppies. I strive to produce puppies that will not have hip problems, eye problems, drainage, or coloring in the eyes.
