Q. & A. with Holly
Why did you start breeding?
I got into breeding after my mom started her breeding business with our poodle. I absolutely loved the beauty of the process, not to mention the joy of being able to connect a puppy you poured into so much with a well deserving family. When I heard about the Havanese breed, I fell in love. They were so adorable! They are hypoallergenic, good with kids, and love adventure AND cuddling!What makes your program special?
I am especially passionate about providing my puppies with the best set up for life. This means carefully selecting the parents and doing Early Neurological Stimulation (which increases heart health, adrenal glands, stress tolerance, disease resistance, curiosity, and activity levels). I also introduce them early on to different noises, people, crowds, cats, other dogs, grass, water, and more.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

About Piper
Piper is definitely one of a kind. She is so loyal. She will often follow me around, hoping for some love. Whenever someone comes to visit, she will go over and ask for some scratches. She is definitely a favorite among friends and family. She loves her doggy sister, who she hangs out with all day. When she has puppies around, she is a doting mother. She's always checking on them, and looooves to play with them as they get older. Her favorite toys are rope toys and long, animal-shaped squeaker toys. She loves almost any kind of treat, as long as it's not used as a bribe (she knows)! She is a chocolate sable/white, but she has lost a lot of her color. When her hair is short, she is white; when it is longer, the tips are chocolate sable! She is ACA registered.
