I'm Angela N., the breeder behind V & V Kennels located in Lodi, CA. We raise loving family companions with a focus on health and temperament. Our dogs and puppies are our pride and joy! Our dogs are bred for health, temperament and most importantly to be a loving part of your family. Puppies are raised in our home with our 2 children. They are well-adjusted to a family environment with children, adults, and other dogs. Puppies are Havanese/Coton de Tulear companion cross.
Q. & A. with Angela
Why did you start breeding?
My love for raising puppies began with my first litter from our very loved family dogs. I wanted to share their wonderful personalities with other families.
What makes your program special?
Raising puppies is quite a bit of work, raising them in our home alongside 4 and 6-year-old boys takes a bit more dedication. Our puppies are well socialized, not skittish or overly barky. They adapt well to new homes and bring love and joy to people of all ages.
What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies have long coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

About Penny
Penny, like Louie, has a wonderful calm and loving temperament. She loves people and makes friends quickly! Becoming a mother was very natural for her, she welcomed help from us and visits from Louie with a watchful eye over her babies. She is also a Havaton (Havanese/Coton de Tulear). Penny enjoys road-trips and devouring any dog snacks :)
Louie, dad
Companion Cross
About Louie
Louie is a wonderful loving companion, he’s so gentle with our children and his puppies! He is a Havaton (Havanese and Coton de Tulear mix). He is shy with new people but quickly warms up and is ready for attention. He loves to play with our dogs and enjoys a good chew stick :)
