Photos --> About R'Gang Havanese Puppies:
Buying an R'Gang Havanese puppy can be the beginning of years
of happiness as the special bond between humans and this incredible breed
exceeds even the greatest of expectations. Your new Havanese will be a member
of your family for his or her entire lifetime, so you'll want to make a
wise investment.
R'Gang Havanese puppies have Champion
Havanese Bloodlines and parents who are certified for excellent health
(eyes, hearing, cardiac, thyroid, hips, patella, elbows, legg-calve-perthes).
By the time you take your puppy home, it would have had its 6 and 9 week
shots, patella's certified by our vet at least two times,
wormed, microchipped, and received a health certificate.
In addition, you will receive your puppy's AKC registration papers, pedigree and health certificates of the parents. We will include
instructions on feeding, care, basic training and grooming, plus medical
records with dates and types of vaccinations and wormings, as applicable.
Once your puppy is living with you, R'Gang's responsibility to you is not
over. We remain available as your primary source of information and advice.
This is just one factor that separates R'Gang Havanese from pet shops and
backyard breeders. Our Havanese
Resources page
contains many helpful downloads to get you started.
 Selecting a Puppy.
R'Gang Havanese focuses on the best possible placement of each available
Havanese puppy, both pet and show potential. We start with an in depth
conversation with prospective buyers to confirm that they are capable of
providing a loving home and proper care. Each litter is tested for temperament
using PAT (Puppy Aptitude Test) at around 8 weeks. As prospective buyers
may have particular needs and circumstances, the PAT enables us to better
discuss each puppy based on personality and purpose.
While we give every consideration to a request for a specific puppy or
regarding a desired color and/or gender, puppies are assigned to buyers
on a first deposit, first available pick basis. Families with particular
demands may be unnecessarily limiting themselves. The ideal
solution would be to remain open to an alternate choice and/or
a spontaneous connection. If your first puppy choice is not
available from a particular litter, you may:
- Select an available puppy
- Apply your deposit
to the next litter on a priority basis
Show or Pet Quality?
 At about 8 weeks of age, R'Gang Havanese puppies are mature
enough to have their conformation and physical traits evaluated. At that
time, we make a professional determination regarding
each one's prospect of a show career. Once
this evaluation is complete, the litter is divided into two groups:
show-quality and pet-quality puppies.
The distinction
of quality only reflects on a particular puppy's potential
for the show ring. It does not relate to the puppy’s otherwise excellent
appearance, health, temperament or personality. We are extremely
nit-picky when it comes to our show dogs because they may eventually be
used for breeding. So, keep in mind that what to us seems like a
flaw would be nearly indiscernible to any person looking for the cutest
and healthiest pet Havanese imaginable. Since we choose our show prospects
at about 8 weeks of age, no specific puppy is promised to an individual
until that time.
Early Development.
R'Gang Havanese puppies are raised inside our home, and spend their first
three weeks in a cozy 3'x3' den located inside Jane's office,
to be under her loving and watchful eye as they mature.
Once the puppies can crawl out the den, Mom and babies are moved to the
family room where more human activity and socialization takes place. The
puppies' mother can come and go as she pleases and has free range of the
property, inside and outdoors. Havanese moms are extraordinarily
attentive, so she volunteers the majority of her time to nursing and caring
for her pups. She even teaches them to use Wee-Wee pads. Puppies are gradually
moved from Wee-Wee pads to puppy litter and become "litter box trained".
As the days pass, the puppies are allowed
to wander supervised about our family room on easy-clean tile floors.
They are only awake for short periods of time and, when it is time for a
nap, the puppies are placed back in their pen with their litter box.
Your R'Gang Havanese puppy will have been trained to use a litter box
as soon as he or she can toddle. It is then an easy progression to using
a doggy door or learning the
"bell" system (we supply cowbells and instructions, if you are
interested in going that route). The ability to use a litter box is ideal
for apartment living and while traveling. We have been raising puppies on
the litter system over ten years with great success.
R'Gang Havanese puppies have their own "puppy agility training course" for
early neurological stimulation.
They receive generous amounts of socialization with children and other
family members, of all ages and gender, plus two cats, four chickens,
and a cage-free Amazon parrot. Our puppies visit schools and nursing
homes, and receive LOTS of interaction with prospective puppy buyers. You
would be hard pressed to find happier, more well-adjusted puppies anywhere.
 Paperwork.
Full AKC Registration:
Fully registered Havanese are considered
to be of show and breeding quality, meaning they exhibit Havanese type and
are free of disqualifying faults under the breed standard. Under these
circumstances, R'Gang Havanese will provide a full AKC registration certificate
or application for registration at the time of sale or within 30 days following
delivery of the dog. Registration papers may be withheld at the time of sale
in cases of prior agreement in writing such as a breeding or lease agreement,
or similar contractual agreement, that delays transfer of ownership until
completion of the contract.
Limited AKC Registration:
R'Gang Havanese issues limited
registration to pet quality Havanese, meaning the puppy has faults of a nature
that would preclude it achieving an AKC Championship. A copy of this registration
will be sent to the AKC. Pet-quality Havanese will also be sold
microchipped prior to placement.
 Deposits.
We accept deposits for puppies after they have been born. Deposits are accepted
on a first-come, first-serve basis. The deposit amount is $400 and is completely
refundable up until the puppies are five weeks old. Once they reach their
fifth week, the deposit is no longer refundable.
We invite you to email or call
as soon as you begin thinking about adding a puppy to your family, and sign
up to our next available litter list. We would be happy to email information
regarding upcoming litters, including pedigrees and pictures of the sire and
dam and grand-sire and grand-dam. When the litter is born, we will post the
pictures of new puppies at regular intervals by email and/or on this website.
