Thought I'd toss in a comment here..., my vet, who breeds Havanese, has just sent me news that there is a split in the Havanese club, too...so now there will be the Havanese we know and the new breed...the Havana Silk Dog. They claim this is the breed as originally designed, in Cuba. If anyone cares, check it out here: And now I guess my vet;s Havanese are now Havana Silk Dogs, since she's on the new "steering committee." www.havanasilkdog.org <http://www.havanasilkdog.org> WOW. AND the AKC will probably encourage all these splits......new breeds mean more registrations. More registrations mean more money. Uh huh.
