Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Dori Scott located in Trenton, FL. I love this breed and the experience of having litters! My mission is to raise pups that will become the best companions. I find so much joy in watching these puppies grow and develop their own unique personalities. I can’t wait for you to meet your new loving and loyal family member, and provide you with the same joy that I experience!

Dori’s experience

  • About Dori

    I've always been a dog lover and have had several different breeds of small dogs. I was impressed with the intelligence and friendliness of every Havanese that I met, and wanted a non-shedding hypo-allergenic dog as well. I've since become completely enamored with this amusing and amazing breed!

  • What makes Dori’s program special

    I have the time, space and love to share with my puppies to ensure that they become wonderful family members and companions. My goal will always be to provide quality rather than quantity. I'm dedicated to breeding only happy and healthy dogs that will provide you with years of happiness and delight!
