Our Breeding Practices
Behaviour and socialisation
All of our puppies are raised indoors and are socialised regularly with other dogs, children and adults. We become accustomed to all the regular noises and motions like TV, music, vacuum cleaner, local traffic, gardening equipment, and much more.
Health
All of our dogs have regular vet checks and also prior to breeding them. Puppies are wormed regularly as well as checked at the vet where they are vaccinated, microchipped and DNA'd. All our dogs are health tested. Any breeding stock have had their hips and elbows x-rayed and scored for dysplasia, had their…
Home environment
We are located at Spring Mountain, a suburb of Brisbane. Our puppies are raised in the house so that they experience all that is going on around them. They are handled and cuddled many times throughout the day and are each given individual attention. They get to experience whether the noise of the vacuum cleaner,…

Additional Tests
THAATZ Havanese conducts 2 additional tests available for the Havanese.
- Physical Test
An eye certificate means the breeder has had their breeding dogs examined by a veterinary ophthalmologist, to confirm they are not affected by any eye conditions which may be passed down genetically to their puppies. If relevant for the breed, it also includes running DNA tests to confirm the dog is not a genetic carrier of hereditary eye diseases, such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA). It includes breeders who have participated in the Australian Canine Eye Scheme (ACES).
- Physical Test
A heart certificate indicates that a breeding dog has been screened for heart disease such as DCM or MMVD. Auscultation alone is only accepted as a screening method if performed by a veterinary cardiologist or a GP vet certifying an OFA Basic Cardiac Screen. Echocardiography is an accepted screening method via GP or cardiologist.
