About Us

Our Story

We are located in the Seattle Area and have been life long dog owners of several breeds, but fell in love with the Havanese Breed almost 10 years ago. After getting our first dog we realized that one was not enough to Love and became interested in showing dogs in the conformation ring which was when we got Zoey. Officially named Hilltrack's Enchantment at Thistledown.  

Zoey has since retired and is living a wonderful life as a family dog with close friends who love her because of her amazing disposition and temperament around their children. 

Zoey Is the mother to our current breeding females Layla, Louisa and Pepper. All very different personalities but all wonderful in their own ways.

Layla, Louisa, and Pepper have all retired as of the Fall of 2022. Our Breeding program has since moved on to the daughters of these wonderful Girls. River is Layla's daughter, Callie is Pepper's Daughter, and Suki is Pepper's Daughter. 

We have decided to retire Artie our amazing Stud and his son Tucker will now be the future of our breeding program. 

Philosophy

We breed with the intention of producing dogs that have a wonderful temperament and will live long healthy lives with your family. Some will make wonderful  show dogs or be great members of your family.
