About Brad
This is the smartest and most precious havaneese we have yet to own. He has been such a joy, and so smart. Super easy to train with the best disposition and personality. His eyes will just melt your heart at first sight. Call him our little human.
Remi, mom
Havanese
About Remi
Remi, is the most affectionate and lovable Havanese he will ever meet. She came to me as a very dark chocolate with a white point under her chin. She did lighten up to a beautiful solid milk chocolate. Her disposition and personality are amazing. She has been a delight from day one and the easiest Puppy I have ever trained.
