Cubana Havanese NZ bred it's first litter of gorgeous Havanese on the 25th December 2008. What a thrilling Christmas package of 6 tiny new lives on Christmas Day born to Twinkle our first little girl and the 8th havanese to set paws on New Zealand soil from Australia. Since then we have enjoyed two litters per year and our fur family has now extended to 9 as of 2023. Imports, from Germany first two reds to Australasia, UK and more recently Toffee from Switzerland.

Prefix : CUBANA (Havanese)

Cubana Havanese is one of New Zealand’s first kennels to breed Havanese from top Australian, UK and European blood lines.

We have been privileged to experience the pitter patter of tiny paws with 10 beautiful litters to date. Our first litter was Christmas day 2008. All our puppies are in loving homes in NZ, and as far away as Australia, Hawaii, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Spain, Singapore and Tonga. 14 are now NZ Champions and 2 are Australian Titled Champions.

Once you have met a havanese you turn into this raving lunatic that 'Hav to hav a Hav!'

Given that the havanese is a rare, minority breed in New Zealand, every effort is made to refine the breed by importing new, healthy, robust lines from UK and Germany. In 2012 we imported 2 beautiful red havanese, first of this color in the Southern Hemisphere from vom Salzetal, a top German breeder.

Cubana is NOT a business but rather a ‘lifestyle’. Our happy, enchanting little charmers are our exceptionally beautiful, fun loving family members living with us unrestricted in our home. We will occasionally breed with the welfare of our Havanese as priority..
