Looking for Breeder in Atlanta Area

[snadella]

Thanks Windym300!! that information was really helpful information. I just ched her website and I will contact her soon. Although we would love to have a puppy home as soon as possible, we have a family wedding that we will be attending early January in Texas. I would hate to leave a new puppy to go attend the wedding, so we are planning for late January early Feb. But I will get in touch with her and see if she has any upcoming litters.

Do you mean Noble Gold? We have a forum member with one of their dogs, and she is lovely. (and a talented agility dog)

I'd stay away (F.A.R) away from Noah's Li'l Ark. Beau's mom got lucky, but they cut a lot of corners.

You might want to look a little further afield too. Many of us have travelled to find the right puppy, or waited a long time for the right breeder to have the right puppy. (or some of each!) I flew from Boston to NC for Kodi, and would do it again in a heartbeat. (When and if I get another puppy, it will be from the Kings) There are good breeders here in NE too, but none that I felt comfortable with who were going to have puppies in the time frame that I wanted. I wanted to get the pup at the beginning of the summer, since I don't work during the summer, and it would give me the time to get a good start on training.

I know there are several good breeders in NC, including Starborn, (I don't think Starborn is planning another litter until the spring) and I don't think that would be TOO far to travel for you, would it?

Yes, email her so you can get a dialog going. Most of the people in the Havanese show community don't have many litters a year. Also, if I had to go to wedding and wanted a puppy and that was only thing stopping me I know my breeder would totally love and offer to watch it while I went..lol.. Too bad my breeder is 4hrs from Atl..lol.. Lots of them are great friends including my breeder and Nirvana so they will give honest recommendations if they don't have what you are looking for and they know who does. Let me know if you need anymore info and good luck!

There are a number of good breeders in the Alabama area also. Susan Hinz comes to mind. She is Hinz & Co and has a website - I believe she is in Cullman so that would not be a terrible distance for you....for the right puppy.

Yes..I meant Noble Gold....Noble world was my kids Montessori school...
I was in auto typing mode

I'm trying to contact more than one breeder and meet their dogs and let them see my family and see if they think we are making the right choice...

Thank you all for recommendations on NC and AL breeder, no they are not very far...I will check their websites.

I work full time but my husband works from home (at least for now) and I do have a full time nanny who loves dogs and is home at least 5-6 hrs a day...she has 2 of her own dogs and will be more than happy to dog sit if needed.

Ha! Montessori is good too. Both my kids did Montessori.

It sounds like you are set up very well for giving a puppy all the love and attention s/he'll need!

Connie is great, Carol Croop recently moved to Atlanta, her husband's job. She is the new president of the Southern Magnolia Havanese Club. I do know of a couple people who do have puppies if you want to pm me.
