Does temperament or health factor into the price?
No, if on a rare occasion we have a puppy that has any health issues or personality problems, we immediately designate them as a rescue. We have yet to breed a Cavalier or Havanese with a poor temperament and we only rarely have puppies with health problems. Most individuals looking for a bargain on a dog are not expecting the additional amount of monetary and emotional costs that go into raising a dog with health problems so it would be dishonest for us to sell a dog under the impression that it would be a bargain purchase.
