Parent dogs
Eevee, mom
Havanese
About Eevee
Eevee is extremely loving and also super playful. She loves to be by my side. She has a wonderful personality and does so well with children and other animals. She is very confident and almost nothing scares her. She is AKC health and Embark health cleared. She comes from champion bloodlines.
Entei, dad
Havanese
About Entei
Entei is a huge lovebug. He is also the sweetest baby boy. He is gentle and easy going. Loves all animals and all ages of people. He has an amazing personality and can be independent at times. He is definitely more on the lazier end and will want to be a couch potato with you while you watch a show - but he will also go on a good walk with you if you’re up for one. He is AKC health and Embark health cleared. He also comes from champion bloodlines.
Parent health testing
Breeder-Reported Testing
Excellent level
Poképups reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Havanese.
Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Eye Certification (CAER, registered with OFA)
Eye testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide range of hereditary eye illnesses including retinal dysplasia, lens luxation, and glaucoma, which can cause impared vision or blindness.
Patellar Luxation
Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.
Congenital Deafness (BAER, registered with OFA)
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
DNA Disease Panel
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
