I am so thankful to have come across Catherine’s page! It’s clear how much she truly loves the babies she breeds and cares for. She was wonderful to work with and went out of her way to make the transition easier for us, especially with the distance. You can tell Catherine is a genuine person who wants every puppy to go to a loving home that’s the right fit.
We got our little Lacie from Catherine, and we are absolutely in love with her! She’s smart, healthy, and the perfect little addition to our family…my kids adore her. Thank you so much, Catherine!!

We got one of Catherine's precious puppies 2 weeks ago and he is so smart and good.
Catherine is so wonderful to work with. I would never want to buy a Havanese from anyone else.
Chance has very few accidents and when he does it's my fault for not taking him out sooner. From the first night we got him he has slept all night and never made a peep until 5:30 or so and then he's ready to eat.
Catherine loves her babies and they are very well adjusted little puppies.
God bless her and her precious pups. I feel truly blessed to have found her and Chance 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Joy C. Birmingham, Al.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had the absolute pleasure of working with Catherine Mietz, and we could not be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, Catherine was incredibly kind, professional, and attentive. Her dedication and love for her dogs truly shines through in every detail, and it was evident to us how much she cares about the well-being and happiness of each puppy.
Catherine’s extensive experience gave us great peace of mind, and her honesty and transparency made the entire process feel natural and trustworthy. She communicated with us wonderfully every step of the way, always patient and thorough in answering our questions. The level of service she provided exceeded our expectations and made this journey such a joyful one.
We are beyond grateful to her for entrusting us with our beautiful puppy, Kai. He is healthy, happy, and such a loving little soul — a true reflection of the care and devotion Catherine puts into her work.
It has been an absolute pleasure to connect with her, and we wholeheartedly recommend Catherine to anyone seeking a breeder who embodies professionalism, compassion, and integrity.

Catherine was so wonderful to work with! She raises wonderful Havanese puppies and was so accommodating to arrange a visit for us to meet Pippa to ensure she was a good fit before committing. We enjoyed meeting Pippa’s mom and dad as well as her litter mates and got to play with them during our visit. Needless to say, we fell in love with Pippa’s sweet personality immediately! We then made arrangements to pick her up the following Sunday as we were driving from Destin back home to Kansas. We are so in love with our sweet baby and would not hesitate to work with Catherine again. We highly recommend Hayden’s Havanese!
