About Me...
I have always loved animals and grew up with horses. I currently have two Macaws and a Swainsons lory to keep me company. I work a good part of the time from home, so I am able to spend time with my puppies. I raise Chihuahuas as a hobby and in a year or so, expect my first litter of Havanese puppies.
I chose Chihuahuas because I just love lap dogs. My Chihuahuas are also happiest when they are cuddled up with me and the cats. It is not unusual for me to have all four of my cats as well as two or three dogs asleep next to me as I work or sleep. My breeding goal is to work towards the breed standard while at the same time raising cuddly, affectionate, housetrained kitties and puppies that will make great pets.
I live out in the country and next to a wonderful family with five kids who help me care for and socialize my puppies and kitties. The oldest girl has a dog in 4-H and practices the dog training skills she is learning with our dogs and puppies. As you can see from the pictures, dogs and cats and even the birds all get along together. Puppies and kitties get a lot of handling and love lap time.
I have chosen the Havanese because I like grooming the longhaired dogs, and I love their energy and personalities. They are easy to train and can make great obedience and agility dogs. They are great with kids and are a nice size for kids. Two 4H girls (my neighbor and her best friend) are going to extend their handling skills and show my Havanese in AKC shows, so we are looking forward to this new venture.

Here is Belefonte demonstrating the proper way to relax
Dolly has taken over the tradition and
will now demonstrate the correct way to relax:
Belefonte is a neutered male Munchkin from my previous breeding program. He now happily resides at a grooming salon and welcomes all the customers. Isn't he a pretty boy?
Meet Buddy
He is a scarlet Macaw, about 20 years old
and a little bit of a show-off, as you can tell...
He loves to come out and be part of the crowd
In general, he expects the puppies to treat him with respect and will chase off anyone who doesn't respect his personal space bubble. However, the puppies think his tail is a dog toy and love to try and catch his tail. He turns and yells at them but he is not quite fast enough. It is quite a hilarious game to watch.
Well, that was fun. How about a little rest, now.
The rule around here is "share"
The neighbors are welcome, too. This is a nonstandard male munchkin that was raised here
and is now the neighbor's cat. As you can tell, he still thinks of this as home.
