I'm MARY F., the breeder behind Heartfelt Havanese located in Rolesville, NC. Our mission at Heartfelt Havanese is to provide the perfect pet addition to your family. We breed our own show-quality AKC-registered Havanese puppies. We also provide stud services for show-quality breeding dogs.
Q. & A. with MARY
Why did you start breeding?
After we purchased our beloved Havanese Gus, people would continuously ask questions about the breed. We realized that people didn't know much about Havanese, which made us want to share this wonderful breed with others.
What makes your program special?
Our dogs are a part of our family. We believe the result of our focused attention and care is what truly makes our Havanese stand a part from the rest. Our Havanese make excellent companions that you will cherish!
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
