Heartland Classics, LLC

Heartland Classics, LLC in Lyons, Nebraska raises bichon frise, Coton de Tulear, Havanese, Portuguese water dog, and soft coated Wheaten terrier puppies from a family-run kennel in the rolling countryside northwest of Omaha. The program is led by Barb Lierman, who began her breeding career after 15 years as a teacher and has built the operation around a collection of imported lines, most sourced from the countries of origin for each breed.

A focus on breed-standard integrity drives the selection of parent stock, with the kennel working to meet standards set by both foreign kennel clubs and the American Kennel Club. The roots of the program stretch back more than 40 years to when the family first began raising bichon frises, making it one of the longer-running small-breed kennels in eastern Nebraska. Most dogs in the program are AKC-registered, and the kennel is licensed and inspected by both the State of Nebraska and the USDA, with an on-site veterinarian who conducts health checks and assists with whelping.

For those searching for Coton de Tulear or Havanese puppies for sale in Nebraska, the kennel's geographic reach extends well beyond the region — puppies have gone to families across the country. Each parent animal is treated as an individual, and litters are raised with early litter-box training as part of the standard routine before puppies leave for their new homes.
