Boutique Puppy Breeder Utah
A boutique puppy breeder Utah families can trust.
Sage Puppies is a boutique puppy breeder Utah families and families nationwide can turn to for Havanese, Havapoo, and Cavapoo puppies. Founded by Cassie Milar in South Jordan, Utah, our program combines thoughtful pairings, early development, and a family-focused process from first inquiry to go-home day.
Meet the Founder
A calmer, more intentional Utah puppy breeder experience.
Cassie Milar founded Sage Puppies with a simple belief: families deserve a transparent, organized, and thoughtful puppy experience, and every puppy deserves a beginning shaped by patience, care, and wisdom.
Instead of trying to be everything to everyone, Sage Puppies focuses on three companion breeds known for affectionate temperaments, family-friendly size, and strong fit for many modern homes: Havanese, Havapoo, and Cavapoo puppies.
The goal is not just to help you find a puppy. The goal is to help you find the right puppy, understand the next steps, and feel confident before bringing your new companion home.
