encore havenese

At Encore Havanese we are committed to breeding dogs of the highest caliber.  Our breeding program looks at the various elements that go into providing a healthy and well rounded companion for families with wide varieties of  interests, ages and environments.  We go to extraordinary efforts in attempting to provide Havanese who enhance the standard and are less prone to genetic health problems.

Here I am enjoying another fun part of having puppies...picking 2 for Encore Havanese. There have been a lot of puppies I would have kept for myself, but I am so happy about the families each is now with.

Encore Havanese Breeding Guidelines:

The Encore kennels originated with Briards in 1995. Marilyn
Vaughn and her husband Steve Sivitz and their Briards,
were active in conformation, herding and agility. Marilyn
acquired her first Havanese in partnership with a long time
friend, Mary Lopez, Amor Havanese, in 1999.

CH Encore Little Miss Liberty (Libby) represents the type of dog I constantly strive for in my breedings.

"A Havanese likes everybody"

"Who's this sleeping in my bed?"

"The Encore Havanese gate guards...and welcoming committee"

Havanese look great in red...and so flashy. Here are my 4 red girls - Ruby (left) and Ruby with Jazz (center) Starlet (right) and Twix (bottom).

For many people, selecting a new dog has challenges and uncertainties.  I have been there myself.  If you are specifically interested in having an Encore Havanese as part of your family, I would like you to answer a few questions so that I can understand your situation and desires, to help select the most appropriate dog for you.  I look forward to helping you,
