Welcome to Koontenay Kissed Havanese. I'm so glad you're here.
After many years of owning and loving several wonderful breeds, I found my heart in the Havanese. Their joyful personalities, intelligence, and deep devotion to their families make them truly special companions.
Havanese are friendly, affectionate, and highly intelligent, making them easy to train and wonderful family dogs—especially with children. They are playful, social, and thrive on being part of everyday life. As a non-shedding breed, they are also a practical choice for many homes.
With responsible, health-tested breeding, they are a healthy and sturdy toy breed, typically weighing 7–13 lbs. They excel not only as loving companions but also in activities like therapy work, obedience, agility, and especially trick training.
My focus is on raising healthy, well-socialized puppies with excellent temperaments. Each puppy is given a strong foundation through thoughtful early experiences, preparing them to transition confidently into their new homes.
Havanese are extremely social and are at their happiest when they are part of the hub of their family's everyday activities. My goal is to match each puppy with a home where their individual pesonality, strengths and energy level will be appreciated and nutured. A well thought out placement ensures my puppies will be cherished family members, included in family activities, and able to thrive and reach their full potential.
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about my dogs and program.
