At Premiere Havanese we are dedicated to producing beautiful and healthy Havanese puppies.  As responsible Havanese breeders, we are serious about health-testing.  Our dogs are CERF-tested annually and BAER-tested, have OFA certification of hips and patellas, and have blood work run to assess liver and kidney function.  We are members of the Havanese Club of America and are founding members of the Southern Magnolia Havanese Club for pet owners and fanciers in Tennessee, Alabama  and Georgia.  Located now in Winston-Salem, we are members of the Central Carolina Havanese Club.

Our Premiere Havanese puppies come with a lifetime, money-back guarantee, no explanations necessary. Why? We believe a breeder must take responsibility for the lives created.  Shelters are full of dogs that have been abandoned by their owners and breeders.  We pledge that the Havanese puppies we produce will not become a burden on their community.

There are more and more backyard breeders that do not rigorously health test, do not participate in breed clubs to keep up-to-date with important information, and do not compete in dog shows to ascertain the quality of their stock.  Every puppy buyer has the right to expect this of their Havanese breeder, whether they are purchasing their puppy for pet or for show.

Who are we?  We are not a kennel, but a family of dog lovers.  Our Havanese are house dogs, but they also have the run of our five acres in North Carolina.  We have started classes at Winston-Salem Dog Training Club, continuing our pursuit of CGC, Rally, agility and therapy dog status. 

We do not ship puppies, but new owners can keep their pup on board with them on their flight home in a soft-sided travel carrier.
