Who We Are
At Once Upon A Havanese, we are focused on providing socialized and healthy pets. We are a family of 5 (plus additions) that have fallen in love with the Havanese!
We live in Manteca, California.
We started with one at a time until almost each of us have our own fluffy. We love dogs and they bring us much happiness. We take pride in our well socialized pups. We homeschool which gives us the opportunity to give our puppies much love and attention. My kids help with much of the care, they almost always have a fluffy buddy helping with their school work.
We also do a ministry in our home. We take in families and individuals that need help. You can read more information about our Ministry on the GLASS page under "more".
Look around our website and if you have any questions please feel free to contact us.
I have added the contract to home page for easier access 1uponahavanese@gmail.com
Our Dogs:
Violet is a Rosie/Duke baby.
Guardian homes are for the dog’s benefit to have their own loving family to be spoiled, not that we don’t already spoil our breeding dogs but we would like to be able to have them stay with their family when they retire from their breeding years. We keep the pick of the litter to continue a beautiful lineage of optimal Havanese genetics, you would get the opportunity to raise and keep a great companion.
