The Associations List – Havanese Associations and Clubs in Ontario

As a general rule of thumb, if you are looking for Havanese puppies from a quality breeder that will provide you with a quality pet or show dog, they will be a part of the local associations. These groups and clubs are designed to provide a kind of stamp of approval for breeders, bloodlines and standards within the industry.

However, they are not the be-all and end-all. The system can be gamed, meaning that bad apples can get into the club or association, so it is only a part of the equation, you still need to do your homework. It is also worth mentioning that just because someone isn’t a part of the association that doesn’t mean that they are a puppy mill or a bad actor. These things can be quite political so do your homework.

The Canadian Kennel Club – CKC

The Canadian Kennel Club is the official governing body in Canada when it comes to dogs. The Canadian Kennel Club has all of the information about registered breeds, breeders, dog shows, standards and laws.

A word of warning, just because a breeder is on the Canadian Kennel Club website, or is registered with the Canadian Kennel Club does not mean that they are a reputable breeder, or that you will get a puppy from a good line of dogs. The Canadian Kennel Club does their best, but like anything else, people can just pay to be a part of the system. Havanese breeders worth getting a Havanese puppy from will have reviews from real people, and they will have a good reputation.

Havanese Breeders in Ontario FAQ

How Do I Find a Reputable Dog Breeder in Ontario?

There are a number of things that you can do to make sure that you are dealing with a reputable breeder when looking for puppies. Check out our article on Havanese Breeders in New Jersey. At the top of the New Jersey article, there is a whole section on finding someone reputable.

The information or instructions are the same in this situation. The Havanese breed is no different than any other breed, and finding Havanese breeders in Ontario that are good is the same process.

When you’re at a dog show you can get a little overwhelmed if you have never been to a dog show before. They are kinda different. However, while you are at the dog show you can get a lot of great information and actually meet the people.

• Seek out information from local associations and groups, and get updated 2023 information.
• Seek out information from previous clients and customers of that person.
• Go to the local dog show and watch your breeder in action. You can tell a lot by how they treat their dogs and their puppies.
• Small animal vets in the area. If you can find out the name of the vet that your breeder uses, go and ask the vet for their opinion of the dogs
• Look for people that are proud of their dogs, transparent and have a website.

How Much Do Havanese Puppies Cost in Australia?

In Australia, Havanese puppies range from 800-1000 AUD on the low end to 4000 – 4500 AUD on the high end. It really depends on where you get your pet from. Most people know by now that you shouldn’t buy your puppy from a puppy mill or from a pet store, cause they are basically the same thing.

Buy your dog from a reputable, registered, reviewed breeder. Breeders who have happy families with puppy placements will have reviews. Pet quality dogs are going to be in the 1000-2000$ range, show dogs are going to be 50-100% more than that and Breed Quality dogs will likely be double that pet quality price. This is because the show dogs and breeding females are worth more.

Can a Havanese be left alone during the day?

Yes, Havanese dogs can be left alone during the day, this breed is ok with some time alone. In our 2023 ultimate guide to the Havanese, we explore this in more detail. What is found is that Havanese are good alone, but they do have a time limit of generally 7-9 hours which is ok. These are not the type of dogs that can go without socialization all day every day like some other breeds. Havanese will want to be a part of the family.

How do I find a reputable dog breeder in my area?

To find reputable Havanese breeders in Ontario, or in your area, the best thing to do is start by contacting the local dog associations and clubs in your area and start talking to them about your desire for a dog.

Talk to small animal vets and see what they say. I would also read reviews left online for dog breeders (Havanese breeders in Ontario as well) and find people that have purchased from that breeder and see what they say.

Again one of the best things to do is go to a local dog show.

If you can visit the home of the person that you are thinking of working with. Sometimes they won’t let you visit their home, but if you can there is a lot of information that you can gather by being in someone else’s home. Especially their home.

As mentioned above the Canadian Kennel Club is also a great source of information when it comes to breeders.

Are you Looking for a Havapoo Breeder or Puppy in Ontario?

The Havapoo is a cross between a Havanese (Havana Havanese) and a Poodle. These are great little dogs. But there are not very many breeders around that you can work with. We have a page dedicated to finding breeders in the Ontario region. There are also some we found just below the border in the US. We have a few listed there. If you know of any others please let us know.

How much do Havanese puppies cost in Canada?

in recent years Havanese dogs cost in the range of $1000 – 1500, but recently we have seen that price increase to $1500-2000 in Canada. Puppy cost will depend on colour, breeding and breeder location. The price will also depend on the pedigree of the parents.

Are Havanese high-maintenance dogs?

Generally speaking, Havanese are not high maintenance, but it will really depend on your choice of hairstyle for the Havanese.

You will need to manage their hair because they do get mats. You will also need to keep their nails trimmed, but can get someone else to do it too.

Because they are low to the ground, they can also suffer from getting a bit dirty when it is raining or muddy outside.

Can Havanese be Mixed with Other Dogs?

Yes, more and more designer breeds are popping up. From Havanese with Maltese and Yorkies to Golden Retrievers.
