"Changing lives ... one Havanese at a time."

Havanese Rescue Inc is an independent charitable organization which is not exclusively affiliated with any breed club, either locally or nationally.

We hope that both regional and national Havanese Breed Clubs will continue to support Havanese Rescue Inc by providing financial assistance for the effort of rescuing and re-homing Havanese Dogs.

We encourage members of all clubs dedicated to the well-being of Havanese Dogs to join us as volunteers in our effort to save those Havanese which are left homeless and in need of our care.

We have always been, and remain, committed to maintaining the highest standards of behaviour in our relationships with potential adopters of homeless Havanese and members of all Havanese Breed Clubs.
