THE GUEST BOOK
life after check-out
At Havana Suites, we pride ourselves on the long-term satisfaction of our patrons. While our residents eventually check out to join their forever homes, they remain a part of our legacy. Here, our 'Guest Book' captures the stories, updates, and five-star experiences of the families who have expanded their homes with a Havana Suites Havanese
THE MILLIE SUITE
formerly miss lovey
"Merrilee was absolutely fantastic to work with! We weren’t sure who to buy from at first, but after speaking with her on the phone, we felt so confident in our decision. She answered all my questions quickly and thoroughly, and she was so kind and friendly throughout the entire process. When we picked up our little Millie, you could truly tell how much Merrilee cared for her, which meant so much to us. Millie has fit right in with our other Havanese, Murphy, and we couldn’t be happier! Merrilee has continued to keep in touch, which just shows what wonderful people they are. We are so grateful for such a great experience and our sweet girl!"
THE GINGER SUITE
"If you are lucky enough to get a puppy from Havanah Suites Havanese you will be so blessed. I picked up Ginger and she was amazing! From day one it was apparent she had been in a loving environment and much care and time had been put in to make her transition to my home seamless. Yes she did sleep all night the first night and every night since in her crate with a blanket that had her family's scent on it and the lamb chop she had before coming to me. Ginger was socialized and came with a travel tote for car rides she had used before and very comfortable riding in. Potty training had been started and that continues to go well. I wanted a pet to share my home and heart and I have that with a sweet, loving, curious and loves to solve problems girl!"
THE COCO SUITE
formerly miss mary ann
"We had such a wonderful experience getting Coco from Merrilee. She was great to work with from start to finish and met us at the agreed location right on time, which made everything so smooth and easy. Coco was already crate trained when we brought her home, which speaks volumes about the time and effort Merrilee puts into her puppies. It was clear from the moment we met Coco that she had been very loved and well cared for. She was clean, healthy, and well-socialized. We’re so grateful for the care Merrilee gave Coco in her first weeks of life. It made the transition into our home so much easier. Highly recommend!"
THE MURPHY SUITE
formerly sir skipper
"I had wanted a dog for many years, so bringing Murphy home was an exciting milestone for me. Naturally, I had some initial concerns about how the transition would go, but after speaking with Merrilee, I felt confident that Murphy was coming from the right place. From the very beginning, Murphy demonstrated how well he had been raised. I was impressed that he was already crate trained, and he adjusted smoothly to his new home. His temperament has been excellent—he is friendly with strangers, does well with other dogs, and carries himself in a calm, well-mannered way. Merrilee has been outstanding throughout the entire process. She has always been responsive, willing to answer questions, and generous with helpful recommendations. It is clear that she puts significant care, time, and knowledge into her breeding program. Murphy regularly receives compliments not only for how handsome he is, but also for how well behaved he is. I am very grateful for the experience and would confidently recommend Merrilee to anyone looking for a well-raised dog!"
