In their own words
"My name is Ellene Cole. I am the proud owner of Colhaven Havanese, a family owned and operated Havanese puppy breeder in Kinston, NC. I have been breeding Havanese dogs for ten + years. I am a small hobby breeder. As a hobby breeder means I may not always have puppies. I raise “top quality” puppies from Champion bloodlines and pedigrees. Colhaven is a recognized Havanese breeder with the American Kennel Club (AKC). I focus on all aspects of improving the bred standard which includes: personality, history, health, nutrition, grooming, pictures, and AKC breed standard. My dogs compete at the highest levels in AKC-sanctioned dog shows. "

Before you call a Havanese breeder
- Health results for both parents. Good breeders test the parents for the health problems common in the breed (hips, eyes, heart, DNA tests) and show you the paperwork. The breed club lists the tests that matter.
- See the mother with the litter, in person or on a live video call, not only photos.
- A real breeder asks you questions about your home and schedule, and often has a waitlist.
- Never wire money or pay with gift cards or crypto before you have seen the puppy. That is how most puppy scams work.
