Edelpark Havanese have over 30 years experience in showing and selectively breeding quality champion show dogs and loyal family companions. I have been a member of the leading canine control body, DOGS NSW, all of this time and abide by their code of ethics. I am certified in veterinary science and passionate about the health and well-being of companion animals. Puppies are raised in a loving home environment, with children. I show my Havanese and therefore breed to the "Havanese Standard".

We offer lifetime breeder support - we will not abandon you once you buy a puppy. We provide ongoing support for the life of your puppy and help you with any questions you may have on the Havanese breed.

We  do not breed all the time and only have puppies available from time to time.  Although our puppies are of high quality, we only breed for the show ring. We cannot keep them all and offer our puppies as pets (on limited register) ONLY.  Limited register means they are not for breeding, export or showing.  

Our puppies come with everything to give them a good start in life with their new family, including:

• Microchipping
• First vaccination 
• Current worming
• Written health certification from a qualified vet
• Lead and collar
• Toy to play with
• Travel crate to ensure your puppy travel homes safely
• Blanket with the smell of the other puppies – this will help the puppy to settle
• Sample food the puppy has been eating 
• Registration papers from DOGS NSW ( on limited register).  This means the puppy is offered on the condition it is NOT to be used for breeding and is to be desexed/neutered.
• DNA profiling
• Documents on the care of the puppy
• Lifetime breeder support - we will not abandon you once you buy a puppy. We provide ongoing support for the life of your dog and help you with any questions you may have on the Havanese breed.

We have provided lots of information about Havanese on our website. If there is anything you are not sure about, regarding Havanese, please feel free to give us a call.  We have a genuine interest in the Havanese breed and have been long-time supporters of promoting testing within the breed. 

I feel it is important to be able to select a puppy which is likely to fit their owners needs. Most people would not buy a car because it was the nicest colour; yet many people buy a puppy because it has the ‘best markings’.  We temperament test our puppies, which provides an indication of their traits.  This helps determine which puppy is best suited to their new family.  The traits of a puppy suited to an inactive older person in an apartment, is different to the traits of a puppy required for an active family or agility competition. The environment the puppy is raised will also have an impact on their behaviours.  We are not a ‘puppy farm’ and we do not breed for profit; it is our goal to ensure our puppies are placed with a family that has the ‘best fit’.

There is no breed specific health testing policy for the Havanese, however we choose to test our dogs to improve the standard of the breed and enabling wiser breeding choices to be made.  We perform DNA Profiling on all of our adults and puppies. When buying a Havanese puppies be sure to ask as many questions of the breeder as you need to ensure you are receiving a healthy puppy from a breeder who has a genuine interest in the breed.
